Stunning work!
 :-* :-*

And the posing on that Ghoul King is amazing.
It makes me want to do a more active one myself.
Mine is rather fat and bloated.

That's a couple of cool monsters. I wouldn't mind a little more color on the bases, though, to make the miniatures stand out a little more. Right now I think they kind of blend in with the bases a little bit

It's my goal in life to never finish a single base.... not but seriously I still haven't ever finished a single base... these are just the "undercoat" if you will ready for some tufts of grass or something should I ever actually get around to finishing a base....

The logic in my head is to finish all the bases at once... so presently I have nearing 200 figures that need basing. The only exception to this is my Warmachine army (snow).

Well I've not really managed to finish any projects recently, but I have been plugging away when I could over the last couple of years on the basic undead infantry, but I've never really shown a decent photo of them all, I still have a few boney undead to finish so haven't taken any photos of them yet but here's the rest.

The Brainless undead








The Flesh eater undead







As far as real updates are concerned I only have a work in progress dragon tamer, any head suggestions or suggestions over what he should have in the other arm?

It isn't obvious? Another dragon of course. Or cant he multitask and tame more than one dragon at a time?  :-)

A treat for the dragon? A nice juicy rat held up by the tail, or somesuch...

Great to see all your undead (and associates) in one place. I really like the skintones on your (Hobbit Goblin-based) Ghouls. How did you paint them?

Lol, that might over balance the figures slighty, plus I have a small separately based dragon to accompany the guy anyway :).

Great idea on the food. RE: painting Halfords brand grey primer and either army painter strong tone (brown) GW Badab black (Grey), thats teh main part, then just finished the hair, straps, etc afterwards. All the undead have been really quite quick paint work, the boney guys take longer as they have bits of armour and cloth, etc of various different colours which takes ages when swapping paints :(.

Thank you Maxxev, that's a surprisingly simple method to get such a nice skintone.

That is an IMPRESSIVE Horde of Deadites & Friends. The Beasty Ones & the former Goblins are especially cool. GREAT STUFF!
The Dragon & Handler look good...the only thing I could think of for the missing arm was a pooper scooper...in case he lives in a neighborhood with a leash law.

You have such a good eye for miniatures from different manufactures that fit together. Very cool undead warbands. I especially like that zombie horseman.
What face are you planning for the dragon tamer? He is a cool idea that I might steal.

Now those look positively evil! Really like them, wouldn't want to end up in close proximity to the giant vampire bat creature.

Mount and Blade btw, you playing the Fantasy mods? I was going to base my miniature fantasy background on a mixture of MBW mods, although a I've been horribly underwhelmed by the Undead empire in 'Phantasy' Calradia.
