Ghouls On Commission


I mentioned earlier that I was selling off some armies. Well... considering the fact that I have zero interest in playing WFB, and the fact that I'm unlikely to change my mind anytime soon - I've decided to part with (most of) my Vampire Counts collection.

I've already sold the painted figs, including these 15 Ghouls I painted up as a commission.

More pics after the jump.



Another 15 Ghouls from the same commission job.
I have to admit, while I was painting them up I thought "what am I doing selling these? I still like this army!" But I quickly reminded myself that even though I like the models, that doesn't mean I'm ever going to use them. Better to paint them and get some enjoyment out of it, and then pass them along to someone who'll actually get them on the tabletop!

The idea was to paint them up to a tabletop level without spending too much time on them. They were required to match a previous batch of 40 ghouls I had already painted. Since I had used the same philosophy on those models, it was easy to get these ones to look the same. I employed extensive use of washes, assembly-lined the details, and used the same resin-cast bases.
