I layered RMS Polished Bone but only on the skull of the cheast eagle, then highlighted the whole chest eagle with Vallejo Model Color White [ White Scar, but VMC White is my favourite white when it comes to coverage]. Linen White (Reaper) – A light value paint color for painting bones on a skeleton or a skull detail I shaded the polished metal with my 1:1 Dark Tone [ Nuln Oil] and Nuln Oil Gloss mix, but instead of applying the wash all over, I painted it directly into the recesses. Once dry, I tidied up with Plate Mail Metal [ Ironbreaker]. Notice the bare skull like carapace, bony claws, and slime-dripping maw? These surfaces all started as a simple paint job (basecoat, shade, highlight) that I built upon using layers of different techniques and art media, e.g., inks, glazes. For example, you can use a mix of matte and gloss varnishes to add contrasting textures to your paint job.

This is where I will introduce the metric of dollars per skeleton (DPS) going forward with the in production kits. These prices are based on official company webstores.Phobosftw over on Dakkadakka revealed that the massive skull in this kit looks like it's the skull from a Dark Eldar Clawed Fiend. I've looked up pictures of the Clawed Fiend and it looks to me like it's a total match, except maybe for the size. I don't think the actual model is that large. Maybe it's the skull from an ancient Clawed Fiend? Anyway, I'm really excited by their inclusion in the kit, and not only because they'll make great base decorations. They're going to make great conversion bitz as well. The Plaguebearer skulls are definitely going to be finding their way into my Nurgle forces, either as decoration or replacing the heads of some of the Plaguebearers entirely. As an Undead fan who started the Warhammer hobby in the late 90’s, I already had the GW kits on hand. For the purposes of this article I bought one sprue of each kit from other manufacturers. It makes a lot of sense for wargamers to look at miniatures available outside Games Workshop when they’re looking for gaming pieces. Early on in my hobby days I often wondered how I could fill out an army without paying the GW tax for their ‘premium’ models. There weren’t many options at that time, and finding them could be difficult. Today however there are a variety of models available. Mantic recently released Ancient Egyptian styled skeletons in their Army of Dust, they look neat, but don’t really fit the flavor of this article.

The Primaris Intercessor was primed with Mechanicus Standard Grey from Games Workshop, the armour then basecoated with a couple of thinned coats of Formula P3 Pig Iron [ Leadbelcher]. I like to add a little drop of Vallejo Game Color Glaze Medium or Lahmian Medium to thin metallic paints, in addition to a drop of water. Metallic paints tend to dry rather fast, and the Glaze Medium will help to create a smoother basecoat. Of course, you could also use Leadbelcher spray for basecoating, or even use an airbrush. Polished Bone (Reaper) – A natural, stereotypical boney color for realistically painting mid-tone or highlights on bony materialIf you need multiple layers of paint to highlight your bone, then make sure you allow each layer to dry before applying the next. You’ll get a smoother, better quality finish.

As you can see, the chapter icon is missing. I’m gonna use self-printed transfer for them, more about that in a future post. How to paint Sector Imperialis basesA final thin highlight of Army Painter Lava Orange [ Troll Slayer Orange] was applied. Then I applied a small dot of VMC White [ White Scar] for the reflection.

Drakenhof Nightshade (Citadel) – A very dark blue shade that will add a cool tone to your bony painting, which contrasts nicely with warm undertones and base coats The Tyranid skulls have the same possible uses as the Tau skulls. I plan on using at least one of them as the head of a leader of a Death unit that I’ve been working on off and on. I will of course shave off the crest bone of the skull before adding them to the leader of the unit. The Citadel Skulls from the Warhammer basing materials range provides a set of highly detailed miniature skulls that are ideal for basing your miniatures.I highlighted the lenses with Mephiston Red, then old Blood Red [ Evil Sunz Scarlet], concentrating my highlights on the front and lower parts of the lenses.
