The blue has a slightit metallic look to it mixed some Mithral Silver in to give it a more fish scale look.

I bet these fishmen are never seen drinking cappucino in italian restauraunts with oriental women...

While I like the blue scales and also the purple robes, I personnally don't like them together on the same model as the colours kind of clash. It might show more contrast to use a shade of complimetary colour. Could be just me though ::)

On the other hand, they certainly do look dark and sinister... >:D

Post by: Lupus on May 12, 2010, 09:20:01 PM: I didn't want them to look drab and such why should they after all ;)

So the brighter robes reminded me of Roman Cults so went with that..

My snakemen i plan on a linen type colour for the robe as they see themselves as pure its us thats odd ;)

One photograph would have been fine, rather than the same one 4 times over! :)

Post by: D@rth J@ymZ on May 13, 2010, 05:32:09 PM: On a second look with the re-posted pics, they look much better than I had originally thought. Good job. Plus, I think that purple and blue combo is starting to grow on me...

Naww, too lippy for that. lol

Your colour palette seems to just work, somehow. It's quite interesting.
