“Beyond the riders, were a horde of warriors, horrible things from your worst nightmares -hic- some of them, I swear, they didn’t have any flesh. Just angry bones, still fighting like they did when they were alive” – overheard in an inn on the road to Lewes, 1217.

After testing the bone colour on the knight horns and skeleton sergeant, I decided to quickly finish the other bone lads in the group…

In fairness, it has been a quick group to paint, but motivation was lacking and I spread it out over nearly a week.

So, here they are, four skelebobs, really only three areas to paint:

The wood and quiver were just Mournfang Brown again, followed by a Drakenhof Nightshade wash.

The metal this time is Stegadon Scale Green with an overbrushing of Ironbreaker.

Finally, the bones adapt the recipe for the helmet horns; Zandri Dust:The Fang 2:1 followed by Karak Stone:The Fang 2:1, washed with Drakenhof Nightshade thinned with Lahmian medium 1:1 then Karak Stone:Fenrisian Grey 2:1 as highlights towards the “moonlight”.

I decided to keep these bases clear of life, just the mud recipe from before and the same colours:

Thondia Brown:The Fang:Black Templar 1:1:1. I then used Drakenhof again in the shadow of the model, using shadows from my lamp as a guide of where to paint. I gave a light Drybrush of Thondia:Fenrisian 1:1 to the lit areas.
