    Somehow I missed this. :oops: If it is not too late, my vote goes for Ushabti (because I want to see some painted Ushabti :)). If you are painting an army to field, then that could change things.

    Those look really good. Some of your best work. What colours/techniques did you employ to achieve the bone sections?

    Literally army painter bone primer then Vallejo sepia wash.

    Edit: this is an army, but more fun then competitive. Ushabti has a vote and sphinxes have a vote.

    Simple but effective. Everything works well together on the model.

    Sphinxes are good too... but Ushabti still get my vote.

    I think both sculpts are nice, but I admittedly prefer the new ones better. They have such awesome shields.

    What bothers me about all the old skeleton models is their huge bones.

    They were trying to make them equally representable next to things like Empire Spearman and Chaos Warriors

    They look good. Are you going to run some text across them?

    By this time the ink would have faded I suspect.

    But fear not!for the planks they are made from are as strong as teak!

    Maybe the mortuary cult added the text recently as a way to bind the spirits of the warrior to their undead bodies.

    Looks good either way, just a thought.

    Very good

    My king would beg to differ, but I guess settra is Khemrikhara after all.
