Unit of Tzaangor Skyfires

I have a great appreciation for anyone who has fully painted these models, by fully painted I mean all the armour plates and the disc the rider is on. Most I have seen at tournaments are painted flat silver/gold with a wash over it. This misses out so many details like eyes, teeth, horns, organic parts, gems and small jewels.

Painting 6 of these was a long and tedious task. Painting them in 2 sets of 3 would have probably been much less stress in the long run! I kept the rider and the quiver separate and painted the discs in 2 parts also so I could get right in there and paint the cool details in the middle. Below you can see a full list of the colours used!
