Skeleton Painting Commission

A few months ago, a returning client sent me these 1980s Citadel skeletons to paint, which I thoroughly enjoyed doing. The brief was red garb and to highlight the lettering on the bases for nostalgias sake.

The glowing rune on the shield is copied from the one sculpted on the commanders chest below.

The Witch King is clad in more traditional undead robes.

I'm hoping these will appear in the new edition of Dragon Rampant ( the client was Daniel Mersey), but we'll have to wait and see..I've got a box of these sculpts myself so it was good to see how they turned out, and hopefully I'll be able to do my own figures in a similar manner.

 

Chaos Warrior Reference

 Just dumping a load of pictures gleaned from WD and Line Wolf publications for reference. All Chaos Warriors from Gary Chalk's collection. It's interesting to see the same figures popping up in different battles, sometimes changing sides in a truly chaotic manner.

Mr. Spiky shield appears as N'aarsh the undead champion in Thistlewood.
