Bags o' bones

Over a year ago, I painted a test figure for a bunch of speed-paint skellies.

When an RoSD scenario I played with my youngest required skeletons, I thought it was time to at last get them off my paint desk.

 

Been ages since I painted a unit, but it was a pleasant process.  I (perhaps unfortunately) didn't precisely measure the time spent on them, but as a rough guess, it would fall somewhere in the 30-40 minutes range, including basing but not including the time spent glueing them together and undercoating.  Not too bad, considering they include edge highlighting, rust effects, NMM and OSL (just kidding, they do technically contain all four, but slapped on !).

Anyway, the main thing is that I am happy with them.  I at last have enough skeletons to flesh out any RoSD or Conan scenario, and as a bonus, they also provide 4 new units for my 28mm Fantastic Battles Egyptian army.

If you look closely, I glued the torsos for four of them on back to front, and only realised it when painting.  The back story is that the necromancer set his apprentice to reassembling the contents of the more shattered graves, without realising the fellow had skipped the lecture on human anatomy...
