Yes, it's safe to use in a well ventilated room. If you're a little bitch you can wear a mask. I once thought as Russell did, then one day after some airbrushing I blew my nose and it was the same color as my space wolves. I bought a mask shortly after.

Your stegasaurus rex and fat frog man are simply beautiful.

Ah, yeah, the ol' 1 bedroom apartment is super poorly ventilated, so this might not be the best idea. Luckily I've been training my wrists for hand-painting 100 infantry (inadvertently) my whole entire life. Well, since I was like 11 at least.

Is your whole army albino? Or just select units like the Skinks and Slann? That's such a great idea either way, I'm a bit jelly #tbh

Yeah I'm doing the whole army in pale cream colors, I like the look so far and the ushabti bone that GW used to replace bleached bone goes on so smooth, its a dream. I just didn't want to paint my lizzies blue, its too overdone lol Any ideas for the terradons by the way guys? Stegadon is red (as are all shields - why wouldn't they use stegadon hide as shield material? shit's tough!), cold ones are green...was thinking of making the terradons either grey or a turquoise-ish color, but with purple/orange markings on their wings/abdomen similar to the GW models:

I think Purple would really go well as the kind of third accent color for you - it goes well with the darkish red and cream bone palette.

Well yeah, that's why all the saurus/skinks have purple scales and frills lol I'm not going to do the terradons purple, because it'll be too in-your-face with the accent color, but I wanted to do the wing markings purple to help tie them into the rest of the army. The slann doesn't have scales, for example, but I painted his little "mini-skink" companion purple to tie him into the army as well.

I could get into some yellow, not a bad idea. Is the army going to be too "rainbow bright" at that point though?

This army looks great. Purple/bone is the best.
If you're between adding purple, turquoise, or yellow, you're already in the "my army looks like a bowl of trix" zone. To avoid that, I'd stick to the red/green/bone you're already using for the other dino rides. I would predominantly use bone because it's the skin tone you are using for fleshy/less armored skin. Whether you splash green or red on bone, you can highlight up to yellow on either of those colors.

Thank you based Mike for the sound advice! I think I'm going to make them more of a khaki color, so they're not quite as creamy/bone as the skinks that are riding them, but close enough to show they have no armor and are super easy to murder. Then the purple wing markings will help tie them in with the rest of the army as well.
