Celts and Zombies (lots of pics)
« on: June 30, 2011, 08:52:07 PM »
Thanks for looking! :)
Started painting up some of the WG Celts I got last week, mainly as an exercise in tartan and the like, think I'm starting to get the hang of it...
Noticed some mould lines when I was taking the photos, sorry bout that! :oops:



















Threw together some zombies from spare parts, the skin hasn't photographed too well, it's a kind of manky purple in real life..

Work away mate! :) The living celts were citadel enchanted blue with p3 midlund flesh mixed in for the highlights, and the zombie ones were enchanted blue mixed with scorched brown and chaos black

Interested in practicing your painting on some Celtos minis? Minis for you, paintjobs for me?

PM if you have any interest please! I've got a zillion I'll never get done, and your painting looks great!

I agree with the consensus, the warpaint is particularly fine on these (and the rest is pretty nice too!).

realized right now that in the celtic WG box there are exactely the same number of head and bodies. that sucks!

But it is an incentive to swap heads for something different... maybe i'll himitate you! =)

I ended up in possession of 80 of those celts, so I'm chopping and changing to keep my sanity more than anything else!

Cheers to the rest of you guys for all the comments, just converted up two more zombies, so once I finish work, I'll br painting em!
