A few bones to pick a Tomb Kings project

Wonderful stuff! Just a fantastic looking mob!

I would strongly advise against the "paint the whole thing at once" method of working! Rarely have I ever seen it work....many the gamer I know with one of those armies sitting on a shelf for years! Years ago I did a historical "Hun" army like that, by the time I finished (years) I no longer played the game they were intended for  .

Smaller "bites" like a unit at a time give you that sense of accomplishment and progress that helps to motivate you along. You wont have the dreadful feeling of "oh. I have to work on that again and I'm still not going to finish" It also allows me to get a few finished units into "play" and further motivates me.

My two cents, and good luck,

Very cool project with nice models and top-notch painting!

Is the gold just normal paint or some form of "liquid gold" paint? I have been contemplating trying out the latter for minis but so far no minis that would need such a treatment… maybe soonish with some Ancient Greeks I have a chance for that.

Thanks for the kind words.
Yes I have already kinda abandoned the whole army at once as you can see with the Ushabti.

I am not sure about the "top notch " but thanks for that.
As far as the gold I used the new GW paints and applications.
1st Base with Balthasar gold, then dry brush Gehenna's gold, then wash with Seraphim Sepia and another drybrush Auric Armour gold.
That's what you see on Queen Kalida and the Ushabti.
I may still add another slight drybrush of their "Dry" Golden Griffon.
It's a lot of work but I am pleased with the results so far.
