RE: Primewill's painting log (first army!) Haha I'm liking the background for your pics oh and the dogs are lookin good.

Lookin' good bro, I'm diggin the skele's bone color

The Skeletons are actually really simple. A thick coat of Dwarf Bronze, heavy wash of black ink, and then a quick dry brush of Shining Gold. Not a pro job by any means but I really like how they came out.

Thanks for the comments! Here is a better pic of the Vampire on foot. Also, here is my necromancer I finished today.

Well my tiny horde of 15 skeletons have grown to 70 with 30 more and 10 hexwraiths on the way! I haven't decided yet what to do about the standards so as of right now they just have poles with a scrap of parchment on it. My WIP vampire lord is just about ready for painting if...

I am in the process of making one from a chaos spawn torso, if I remember correctly the old strigoi were on the orc sized bases rather than the smaller skeleton sized bases. Would this have any bearing in today's edition or should I try to squeeze him onto the smaller base?

I am liking this list, I saw the 5 wraiths heroes and was like... whoa. Definitely a fan of taking naked heroes, especially casters. I think you might be a little weak in the hammer department though (I'm the same way, I feel I can never have enough core units!) I don't foresee the Vargheists...

Oooooooo! Good call Brahm, I found not one but several Reaper minis with a suitable parts. Also what is GW's rule on having to have X% of the model be warhammer made?

Well you won't be winning combat with wounds that's for sure, but with lots of replenishable ranks and god willing a flanking charge from another zombie unit or your wolves you should be able to break the much smaller sized enemy your units are clawing at. By dumping the ghouls and corpse cart...

I think I would be more likely to take a massive number of zombies instead of the ghouls, given that you will be up against 2 ogres, dwarves, and elves, all of which will be smaller sized armies. I might also try taking two naked lvl1 necros to spam IoN. Just my thoughts :)

Thanks for the suggestions! I don't think I will be fielding any ghouls as of right now but I might possibly pick up the terrorgiest after I finish my core blocks. I am also pondering drybrushing a final coat of skull white onto the skeletons, do you think this would make them appear more or...

Love this list, do you find with that many zombies that they actually start winning combat or do they simply get turned into regenerating mulch?

Well I'm definitely not up on the whole meta right now but just from my perspective, having a massive unit of skeletons with the BSB in it would not only prevent additional wounds but the +1 combat res from a BSB would be really beneficial. Considering that you won't be winning combat with...

Just finished my Ogre army and was thinking about getting back to my beloved vampires. I haven't played them since two codex's ago and my painting/converting skills have improved drastically since then. I picked up a few boxes of the new skeletons and a empire general to use as my lord. Almost...

No BSB? I might knock two lvls off of your lord and drop a hexwraith or two just to take a naked wight king, but thats just me.

Bro, y u no unpack all the boxes in your room? Also, Bronze > Iron, and what happened to using non-metallic paints to do the metals bro?
