I have now finished the 360 skeletons from warlord games children of the hydras teeth sets. That’s 720 separate feet. But they are marvelous skeleton miniatures with superb adaptability. I adore my converted siege bombard from Perry miniatures. The skeletons can be put to any purpose, the entire army is all the same sprue of 6 skellies. Halberdiers and arqubusiers here to the charioteers, crossbowmen, spearmen and war mammoth crew etc. A great sprue.i have never known a more adaptable sprue. Finally I would like to take note that the Siege ram has all the pegs in its mortice and tenons as per a real one if I made it using my carpenters training, I could not leave it unless the legs where in. I have two miniatures left to convert for the undead army and that’s a vampire coach using the warlord generals coach from their pike and shotte range. Then I have 5 carrion riders using mythic americas condor riders. I’m not certain how to do the condor riders yet as I need to source appropriate riders which is proving tricky. Frankly though, I have had enough of building miniatures for a bit, I’m going to have to paint some soon, it’s just a bit hot!
I’ve got a pair of the old marauder carrion, and the riders were pretty small, like almost sculpted to a different scale small. If you want to match that feel, maybe have a look at some 15mm fantasy figures for possible riders?
Cheers man, I’ll take a look. I’m not decided whether I want them properly old school with tiny riders or not. I’m toying with the idea of whether a friend can take a Ringwraith or something and 3D print it to replace the condor riders. But I know nothing of such things!!
Well, if someone gave me another box my inner monkey says it will fling poo at them for the kindness. I take that impulse as an omen of completion.
Possibly PTSD…..

One box of the Hydra’s Teeth skellies has been enough to give me nightmares, can’t imagine the PTSD 360 of them brings on XD
