So far I have shown very little in the way of actual miniature painting on my blog. So here is a batch of skeletons from Bones 2. These nine undead should prove useful in many low to mid level dungeons, and are part of my plan to assemble sets of dungeon monsters for 5th Edition D&D.
They are from the Shambling Dead pack in Bones 2, but mine contained two of the 'undressed' skeleton archer so I am missing the archer wearing the hood. I just need to root out the skeletons from Bones 1 to make a round dozen.
Here is my current progress; I intend to rebase all minis to give a unifying look. The bases are made from MDF discs from Warbases covered with a thin skin of greenstuff and textured using home made stamps.
The skeletons have a base coat, once everything is dry I will wash and highlight them before adding the bases and possibly varnishing to protect the paint.

Progress so far

More detail
These are intended to be quick paint jobs, after all, they are only skeletons and probably wont last long.
The minis themselves are very nice. There is more interesting detail than the first lot of Bones skeletons, so I imagined them as the remains of a patrol, hence the green and yellow livery.
Paints are mostly Vallejo, with a few Citadel foundation paints thrown in.
