    Nice dress! Put this time you didn't keep it at five colours per model... But maybe this one counts as two! ;)
    Nice job!

    True but on such a big model the colours are not over powering :)

    I love the way you paint these, the colors give such an odd yet nice contrast to the brute giant! Looks like it's a blast to paint!

    Keep up the good work mate.

    The patchwork clothing is hilarious! Looks great! And the rope and barrel look incredible! All around great model and you've added so much detail! Looks amazing!

    That is old school. I'm glad you finally got your giant completed. I looks great! :cool:

    That basing is fantastic... your static grass looks so good.

    Judging by your basing, it definitely works really well. My static grass is always flat so I stopped using it.

    That's the same reason I stopped using it myself. I am going to get that flock box...at some point...

    So I wanted a fast method for my Death rattle skellys,

    All primed with Army painter "skeleton bone" spray, very much like Ushabti bone when dry washed with Nihilakh oxide (citadel technical paint).
    Transfers were applied to shields banners before the wash, the idea was to make them look good without doing detail that has been saved for my wight king, Arkhan etc.

    Left to do is 10 Black Knights bret converts they will be Celesta grey base then washed Nihilakh Oxide and Arkhan painted like Nagash from warhammer TV (still to purchase these)

    Thanks @Bainbow for the convert spark.

    Nice! Reminds me a little bit of the ghost army from the last part of lord of the rings.

    Hope they are as effective in battle as their movie pendant! ;)
