So for the step-by-step tutorial for the ice, it's here: 1st put some saran wrap dabbed in PVA glue on the bases 2nd, paint the wrap with dark green, highlights dark blue. Then cut small pieces of transparent sheet or plastic and glue them on the wrap. 3rd, basecoat the sheets with light...

That is one of the most disturbing banners I've seen @Borgnine! Great work! I first thought you were going to do it as a fleshy thing, but this ethereal one with ghostly faces is just so much better. Excellent work there! The dragon on the cloak is superbly detailed too. What an amazing...

What would help Spirit Hosts would be to give them monstrous infantry supporting attacks. Now there is no point in fielding them in two ranks other than the extra wounds.

Welcome! Really liking the coloring on those boils in the backs and the bloody tissue. The only thing I'd suggest is to pay some attention to the mold lines, since they tend to stand out when drybrushing. I'm a bit lazy with them too most of the time with R&F that has 30+ bodies in a unit, but...

Nice update! Especially like to see that assassin from Heresy Miniatures, since I browsed through their wares just this week. How does that skeleton giant scale with regular infantry?

@Borgnine the idea is that there's water under the ice, that's why I chose to go with a bit darker scheme. I will make 3 bases more with more snow and smaller cracks (and with zero spirit hosts in fact) to tie the unit together more. I will then look if it still stays too dark. I'm a big fan of...

This round for update took a little while longer. I got the cracle paint that I ordered and finished my spirit hosts. I think I might post a step-by-step tutorial for the ice effect later on, but here are "The Drowned"

Just read through your plog the first time. Amazing job with all the converting here, I lost count how many Zacharias Zombie Dragon bodies you have used. I bet your bits bin is at least a cubic meter in size if you can pull spare dragons and wings from it. :D Good work with Nagash and Walach...

Really liking that BSB idea. Might snatch that for my ghouls, now that 9th age has the option to include a standard bearer for them too. Splendid work, you really are a very talented sculptor. (And painter too, ofc)

@Borgnine thanks. The standard bearer is indeed an old Citadel model, released with the skeleton command group in 1993. The guy is actually one of my first purchased minis when I started collecting Warhammer at the end of the last millenium, somewhere between -97 and -98.

Really impressive job with the dragon. Thanks for the tutorial for the blade, I might try that out too. I really like the blending you've done with the cloak and wings.

Please, add me to the list

Meanwhile I wait to get more of that crackle paint from overseas (The product had been discontinued, it was really difficult to track a store that had it) I assembled my 40 skellies and basecoated most of them. Impaled Cohort has lots of bits from here and there, some Tomb King charioteers and...

@Borgnine, really good job with the sculpting and paint. What did you sculpt on, green stuff or something else?

Holy sweet piece of sweetness! That dragon is fantastic. Where is that dragon model from? Did it come as such or did it require converting? Also, is the base something that comes with it or your own handiwork? Great job!

I really like those zombies and the trees in your unit fillers. I was thinking something similiar with my ghouls later so I think I will try to mimic some of your positioning. Great detail on the zombies. Really like how they are telling a story. Keep up with the good work, I certainly will be...

Updates from the Experimental Laboratories. I have a 9th age game coming up later this week and I want to finish some of my units before that so I played around with the idea tha my spirit hosts would be based on frozen water. Since the new models sprout out from corpses, I just got the idea...

@Borgnine, there will be ice for sure. Perhaps some ghostfire flames too and who knows what else. I have a few ideas and I just want the base to possess every bit of oomph that the model has. Meanwhile, I just love painting the ghosts and bottom coat. I can actually switch to using a bigger...
