Rotten smiles - A Necropolis28 gathering

Wow! I just caught up with this project! That last team…great modelling, but going back through your thread, I can’t wait to see some paint on all of these! Your painting is soo atmospheric and I love your blending of subtle colours!

Very cool! Incredible work, can’t wait to see it painted

I a hoping to speed up the painting process using an airbrush for basic shadows and highlights followed by oil washes. I think the skin would benefit from oils, too. Need to think about it.

Outstanding work! 

Thank you!

Those look fabulous. As others said, very dynamic. Every base tells a story…

That was indeed the intent. Glad it works!

Absolutely brilliant! As has already been said, I can't wait to see the pained results.

I have some holiday scheduled in, so maybe I can get to the blood suckers.

Much obliged! I try to incorporate a certain number of colours on all team members for a cohesive look. For instance the blueish bone colour works quite well for this purpose. I do love magenta, too. Extremely versatile colour.

So far I made a skeletal Gathering, a vampiric pose and finally, some Zombies are in the works. I present my leader, Matthias the Savant.

"Rise! Rise!", his half rotten tongue formed the words, more of a guttural mutter. Slowly the corpse opened the coffin contorting his limbs. His eyes and tongue were long gone. But when you join Matthias' covenant you won't need eyes to see, as the liminal space between life and death cannot be witnessed that way. The priest's mouth formed a grotesque smile, lumps of flesh that once formed lips, showing too much blackened teeth. "Come, I have such sights to show you".

The Miniature is by Reaper, kinda oldschool. I removed his eyes and added a Mantic Zombie arms. The chap in the coffin is also a Mantic Zombie.

 That's a great combo, should look really nice once it's painted up.
