Games Workshop Base: Morghast Bone

Product Information

In Vampire: The Masquerade, ghouls are humans who have been fed vampire blood. This turns them into the undead monsters we’re familiar with, and gives them some supernatural powers. In a similar fashion, the first Blade movie features a similar type of process, where ghouls are basically “failed vampires” where the process doesn’t take. Then do any other metallics in literally whatever paints are nearby, I find the variety helps make the knights look more unique Now comes the fun and unusual part. I could describe this mixture with a mathematical formula, but I think it’s easier if I just break it down in a more natural way. I start off with a 50/50 mix of Bugman’s Glow and Gryph-hound Orange. Next I add just a touch of Magamadroth Flame. This is what gives it the majority of the orange tint. It’s also a really strong color, so start off with just a little bit, mix it in, and then add more of if you need to. I just did a little dab of the brush tip basically for mine. Once that’s all mixed I added in Contrast Medium until it was all the the consistency of Contrast paint, then slather it all over the skin of the model! Like all Contrast paint, you want to make sure it doesn’t dry in weird pools. I ended up doing 2 coats on the larger model because I made the mixture too thin on accident for him. If you’re doing a whole army of these I would recommend mixing up a big batch of this in a spare paint bottle.

Step 1(Left)- A solid coat of Zandri Dust. My pot is pretty thin and it took three coats to get a mostly smooth base coat. In our How to Paint Everything series, we take a look at different armies of the Warhammer universe, examine their history and heraldry, and look at several different methods for painting them. With Halloween fast approaching, we’re looking at how to paint the spookiest monsters around. In today’s HTPE, we’re looking at how to paint fearsome monsters that live inside each of us – Skeletons.The paints listed below are a good match for Morghast Bone because they each bring a unique quality to the table, and work well together to create a cohesive color scheme. Whether you want to create a bold, vibrant look or a more subtle, nuanced palette, these paints are a great choice for pairing with Morghast Bone. The next and most important step is the skin, which is a thinned Aethermatic Blue contrast paint. I start with a 5:3 ratio (5 parts Contrast Medium, 3 Aethermatic Blue) and do a few coats rather than one single coat. I find that thinning and doing smaller, lighter layers enables me to better control the contrast paint, and avoids making the models a bit too “blue” in the process. While I wouldn’t say things can go “wrong” here (as long as you like them!), these two models show a bit of the learning curve I had on thinning the paints. The first Crypt Horror below was without thinning the contrast, while the Crypt Flayer used a multi-coat approach. Both look good, but one looks a lot more “blue” while the other evokes an “icy”, “cool” feeling, which is what I wanted. I wanted the illusion of melting snow, but also the idea that it was fresh, as if falling from the pillar due to her clinging to it. Credit: Kenji Coat D'Arms match the OLD citadel colours (pre-1992) so there might be some difference. Shining gold has the most noticeable difference,

Tyler: The Sons of Velmorn are here to claim glory in the Gnarlwood – and do it in style. Just look at that confidence – the commanding pose, the flawless drip. I matched them to my existing Soulblight Gravelords colour scheme , meaning lots of purple, with bases matching the rest of my undead. Fowler: I do feel like the bases here have just a bit too much drip. The gold coins do a nice job of breaking things up but there is a lot of geometry to hit here, some of which is in dangerous spots to hit! How to paint them For the Knight Despoiler I’ll be talking about the crown jewel of the army. The frothy moldy creme de la creme. This conversion was one I knew I had to do when I saw the original model (The Glottkin for those who are unaware). To knight-a-fy him I knew I needed to add weapons for both hands and at least 2 accessories to bring this fantasy model into the 41st millennium. The lamprey fist was easy, just shove a battle cannon in there. The chain sword was quite a bit harder, I needed to saw apart the tentacle whip on the arm and greenstuff a flesh connection point for the weapon. The result was….. Fine. Most people will never ever see the defects of the connection on the table but it will haunt me until the day i die (or I cave and make another)

If you noticed the scheme on the Armiger and the Tyrants are different from The Green Knight’s, you’d be right because I really didn’t like the old scheme. The initial thought was for The Green Knight to be sworn to the death guard so I used their traditional scheme for it…Even though my Death Guard aren’t the normal Death Guard scheme…Yeah I dunno. Anyway these Armigers needed their own identity, and from there House Gloam was born. The paint formula was made to be simple but stand out on the table and allow weird fleshy bits to stand out and be harmonious against it. Here’s the breakdown: and, honestly, I wish it had taken me longer, because these guys are an absolute pleasure to paint and by far my favourite models to paint to date. After priming them all with a Zandri Dust, I gave them a generous wash with Agrax Earthshade. Once that had dried, they were beaten around with a medium drybrush and a little Ushabti Bone. And with that, the bone was done. For this scheme, I was inspired by Miniac’s video on color theory, in which he discussed a way to use yellow and purple on what just happened to be a skeleton. I found the idea interesting, and wanted to challenge myself to do something based on this by limiting myself to 2* colors, with a few extras for various accents and a metallic. The basic idea is to use these paints and mix them into one another to help blend along the colors themselves, while also creating that distinct, contrasting tone that would make the models stand out. Wash Vallejo Charred Brown several more times, starting further from the base of the horn each time, and smooth the wash lines with water. Let each layer dry thoroughly before moving to the next.

The PlayStation 4 game Bloodborne combines the gameplay of the Dark Souls series with a story and setting that owe a great deal to Lovecraft’s work. Step 5(Left)- This layer is a mix of Hyek Yellow and Dead White. Hit a smaller portion of the Screaming Skull to build up a brighter highlight. What do you think, should I finish the warband? Are you going to paint some of the Blisterskin up yourself to ravage the lands of Hysh? It all really depends on what look you want to get - I prefer high contrast with a pretty dark starting point for the recesses, which I don’t feel is what the GW method gets you with Seraphim Sepia. The works of Junji Ito wonderfully explore many of these themes in the manga format, and Ito is a master at illustrating things that are truly terrifying. For my money the best of these is the short story The Enigma of Amigara Fault, but Uzumaki is a great longer-form piece about a town that becomes obsessed with spirals.When I came to Age of Sigmar a few months ago, one faction really stood out for me: the Ossiarch Bonereapers. Sold as elite warriors forged from stolen bone, the biggest, baddest, and most brutal of Nagash’s unliving forces can be found in the Bonereapers’ ranks. Perhaps somewhat Necron-like in appearance, given their bone-carapace, multi-limbed aesthetic, it is refreshing to find something on the spooky side that isn’t just yet another skeleton army or horde of shambling zombies. Of course, this is on offer – and looks great – in other wings of Nagash’s Grand Alliance Death, but with the Ossiarch Bonereapers themselves, it feels as if some real thought and originality has gone into the direction of the faction. These are some impressive models with some gorgeous details, like the spirits coming out of the wings, the dark gems studding their armour, and the roiling souls howling within their limbs and weapons. Once everything’s assembled and the model is on its base, it’s beautiful to look at. Deathlords: Morghasts Review – Building
