After months without any project, Ive decided to start an old idea: an "eastern europe" vampire counts army. The basic idea so far is to make half the army alive and half the army dead, and use as much kislevites as I can. I will post them here. Until then, opinions and suggestions are most welcome.
Nice idea :-) I'm looking foreward to see some pictures! I'm making an VC army myself, and I like the idea about multi national VC armies... so get started and post us some pictures :-)
I'l post my work so far this weekend if I can.
Also a question: How to paint skin for undeads? I've tried for this army but I've never had to paint dead meat before.
I tried to look for some guides, but found none unfortunately... I haven't painted any vampire for my own army yet... but with my zombies I just tried my way to a result I liked... using elf flesh, rotting flesh and bleach bone (I think that's all - maybe some green ink)... in different layers. I think my vampires are just gonna be pale - painted like normal flesh just lightened up even more :-)
So I'd say practice finding the perfect undead skin tone, that you like - that's more unique than just painting after guides ;-)
My work so far (less time than ever). I resolve to sacrifice some cossaks from my kislev contingent, and I found some more kossars.
I'm pretty much improvising the aspect of the unit. The only thing I know is that I dont want to give them a commun colour pattern.
As for the necromancer and the wraiths, they are my first undead minis. I'm still not sure about the skin colour for the undeads.
Wow
that idea is really really good
My favorite is the one (I thing is made) on an older flagellant.
- Keep up the great work mate
The conversions look great. For the undead sking I would try using either green or blu inks to make the flesh look more rotten.
great stuff like the old world look . i like the old guy with the skull.
