Undead Warband

I finally painted my first miniature for mordheim.
It is a simple chaos sorcerer from old Citadel that I will use like a vampire in an undead warband:




I will include more pictures of the other warband miniature when I will finish them.
The next miniature I will paint should be the necromancer.

That's another of the early Citadel minis that brings back fond memories. You did an EXCELLENT job of linking the metallic effect of the armor with the off white of the robes. VERY WELL DONE!

Thats an excellent miniature and very well painted. It makes a very good vampire - reminds of the bone armour in the first Legacy of Kain video game.

Very nice start to an undead warband! Can't wait to see more.

Niceeee!!

Here a pictures of my Necromancer, an old Citadel miniature from 1983-85, If I remember well:

Love the old models with their awkward poses. Looks like he's flexing his muscles

Very cool, neat painting. Lovely old figures aswell, especially the first one which happens to be one of my favourites of all time too. Great job overall.

After a long time, I finally painted more miniatures for my warband.

Here the Ghouls (I use Wraiths), and dregs:




all vintage miniatures.

Very nice. I especially like the Dregs.

Haha, those old wraiths are so sympathetic. Just got to love 'em!
Their sculpt is kinda clumsy but, ah, so nostalgic.
Nice painting and completely agree with luckyjoe about dregs; They really look great!
Yet again lovely stuff from you!

I love all the Old Skool stuff! Excellent work, and the color them is great!

COOL STUFF! The shroud color is very effective for the Living Impaired Guys. WELL DONE!

Nice job. Love the old models.

Wonderfull collection of minis, not to mention your splendid paintjjob, well done!

Awesome job on these! Love the use of old school miniatures and your painting style is superb! Keep it up and ready to see more.

Here my zombies/skeleton with a picture of the full warband:

There is something deeply satisfying about the final Group Shot. The Living Impaired Lads turned out TERRIFIC...VERY WELL DONE!

Great old-school miniatures + great painting scheme + great painting technique = very cool gang

I could not agree more with Paboook.

The color-setting along with the really tight painting makes these guyslook superb! It really is a warband, not just a bunch of seperate models. The old poses come to live on these models.

Might I ask how you managed to make the robe so light (in terms of colour), yet so realistic? what paints did you use, and were there any special tricks involved?

This is going to be in my favorite list. I really really really really love these guys!

I simply used the Games Workshop's wash gryphone sepia for the white.
White skull base, wash of gryphone sepia, and finally highlighting with skull white (diluted with water).

Super sweet! Great job!

Just that? That makes it even more impressive I guess

Thnx for the heads-up, I will try it myself!

Congrats on a unique and interesting warband. Awesome painting and those models must be as rare as hens teeth! I agree with the comments about the colour scheme. Love it!
