Talk Fantasy Football

Here you can see some pics of the mummies of my Khemri team.
There will be an additional star player soon but there is still a lot of conversion work to do. It will be a Reaper miniature.
As you can see I painted them in the colors like the GW painters did. I really liked the color sceme so why not. Also they look more realistik with the brown bandages.


As you can see, two of them are converted a little bit. Maybe I should have repositioned the heads of a few of them.

And of cause --- Ramtut III ---

There is still the need of some paint here and there. I´m also not really satisfied with their numbers but it´s ok to play with them

Thanks for looking.

that colourscheme works really well on them

good job

Very nice job, Bonehead. Ausgezeichnet!

Looking good Bonehead! Nice conversions.

Wow ! Very nice minis !

Nice, very nice. I like your paintings a lot.

Nice contrast and colour balance. Not over the top - you've really done these miniatures some justice. I particularly like the way you've painted Ramtut to be consistent. Your gold/bronze work is also excellent!

What is your technique for painting gold? I'm having a bit of trouble at the moment, and your finish is really good. Any pointers?

Great job!

Of course now you HAVE to assemble the rest of the bits...

For the gold I started with the one of the Vellejo acrylics range. This one was not that good, I had to apply three or four layers until covering the black primer. But after finishing that I used a dark brown wash to make the gold appear old. On top of this came a layer of GW shining gold (drybrushed). I think you can just mix some silver into the original gold for the highlights. And finally a little bit of flesh/chestnut wash here and there and thats it.

I can post some pics of step by step painting when I´ve finished my additional star player.
All of my skellies are assembled, yet. They just need some paint now!
By now this team demanded nearly all of my patience, but I think they will be finished soon.

Thanks for all your nice replies

Thanks for the tips.

A step by step would be cool if you've been taking piccies!

Even that I'm not particularly fond of the mummy miniatures, I love your paintjob. Really good looking and fitting!
Maybe you should consider adding a little more highlight to the brown/bandages, to make them look more dry and dusty. I don't know if it's due to the photo but the bandaged parts look a little too dark IMHO. They would fit to the lighter bone colour of the Skellies that way, too.
