Some wraith type undead, the two reaper figures were test figures, the two marauder figures are for my undead army, and the chaos warrior an experiment in colored Armour

:o
Great stuff, sir!
Beautiful effects on the Undead.
:-* :-* :-*
It seems we have very similar ideas regarding Undead armies.
I intend something very similar in some aspects, but very different in others.
I may well steal something of that colour scheme.
If I can pull it off that is!
;)

Lovely!

Lovely paint - the colour choices work really well. Great stuff!
cheers

Great stuff. I especially like the contrast between the blueish wraiths and the warm colours of the metals; most excellent! 8)
I was thinking about what minis to use for Wraiths in my own fledgling undead army, but those Reaper ones look like a good start. ;)
Not too sure about the chaos warrior's armour though, but that may be personal taste, as I don't really like coloured metalics. The paintjob is solid, though it might benefit from some stronger contrast colour somewhere. maybe the emblem on the left shoulder?
-
Cheers guys, i need to add shields to the Marauder wights, as for the chaos warrior, the photo seems to have washed the color out of the Armour, i get what your saying about a different color pad, i tried but he reminded me too much of a space marine!

Fair point there... lol
How about a gold plated helm perhaps?
-
Looks great to me...perhaps a thinned out green wash on the Chaos warrior? I think it looks pretty good but a bit more contrast would be nice.
Undead look fantastic!
Cheers,

i think a gold helm could work! :)
-
Brilliant stuff! You've really outdone my similar efforts...
-
hey Derek thanks for the recipe! i couldnt have done them without your help! :)
-
Very cool job on all the models! I do like the chaos warrior. After seeing the wraiths and wights the green armour gives him a bit of a ghostly appearance by association, but on his own he's just a very well pained chaos warrior in green tinted shiny armour. Well done!
-
I like the chaos warrior armour, reminds me of old school 'expert paint set' ink glazes over bare metal, but much more subtly done and with a degree of shading that was always lacking in that method.
But most of all I like the Marauder figures, I've been painting up a few old Marauder Dark Elves recently myself and I really miss those old sculpts. Shame they have become so expensive on ebay :(
-
Fantastic job on all of these minis, I am really digging the bases though. I normally don't like fully textured bases but you did a great job on them, especially the chaos warrior base. My favourite minis/paint jobs are those old Citadel barrow wights.
Cheers,
Damien

Lovely, I really like your basing too.

Nice subtle use of colors, espcially on the games workshop wraiths. Somehow for me the colors work a bit less on the reaper model, probably because I have a bit too much ringwraiths in my head when looking at them :)
The chaos warrior is very nice as well.
