Cheers mate, I've just stripped a bunch of things recently too. The garage stinks of dettol now,

It always annoyed me that in WD there were army pictures of these with several units of archers (ten-20 figures worth) and yet you only got one archers arm with the cavalry sprue 

[beefcake]

Yes, very frustrating, especially when the infantry sprue had 5 arm choices for 4 infantry, 3 hand weapons 1 spear and a scythe. Although hard to decide which to lose I guess.

Back in the day I only ever did a skeleton archer unit for the sake of completeness. I don't think I ever fielded it. As skeleton archers were quite rubbish.

I don't think I'll be bothering with them as getting enough archer arms of that era will cost a kidney... or two.

In a world of 3d printers, there are ways to get them, like here: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/skeleton-weapons-armor-oldtown-hammer-archer-and-cavalry

I'll have to remember that page.

Mummies are done.
I managed to find one of my original night horrors. I had all of the mummies from the night horrors range but sold them in the great purge before I got back into this miniatures business. One fell through the cracks which I kept (maybe at a later date I'll flesh *haha them out with some night horrors) I'm pretty happy with these guys. I like the contrast in the skin tone compared to the bandages (which are the same mix for my skeleton bones) I've got 2 of the same mummy in there. Both seem to be the inspiration or be inspired by the Settra character. I prefer the one with the bronze flail part. It breaks the colours up nice but both are great. It is a really nice miniature.
Also down the bottom I've included an army shot so far. Looks like I forgot the banner bearer. I realise I've actually not painted many character figures yet. 2 show in the picture but 1 is from a while back, a liche. I'm thinking I might give Dieter Helsnicht a go in all his manticorey goodness. Totalling it up this is just over 2000pts in 3rd edition.
Later on I'll create some lasercut movement trays for them. I might use thick card for underneath but 3mm mdf to match the base heights.
