The skeletons were very simple to colour. Having already primed them Wraithbone I used Skeleton Hoard contrast paint, followed by a light Wraithbone dry brush. I finished up with an Agrax wash to age the highlights and further deepen the shadows. In a similar vein I used a Nuln oil wash on the Chaos Warriors, followed by a Drakenhof Nightshade wash. This combination gives a nice burnished look to the plate armour. Once the washes were fully dried a Lead Belcher dry brush brought back some shine to the edges. These two groups of monsters were really quick to paint and I had them both finished by the end of my third painting session.

Day 3: Skeletons and Chaos Warriors

I had managed to get a full day ahead of schedule and now had the two smallest groups of monsters to work on. There are only two Mummies and two Zombies in the set. I used Rotting Flesh on what little skin could be seen on the Mummies. I then gave the whole model a coat of Skeleton Hoard. I reapplied Rotting Flesh to the raised areas of skin and was happy to leave it at that. As the mummies has been so quick to complete I made a start on the Zombies. Their skin was also done with Rotting Flesh and I used contrast paints on their ragged shirts and trousers.
