    And brilliantly painted... I'd only thing I'd suggest is to improve you handwriting... it's practically impossible to read...;)

    Also the Wight king looks great ...

    Do you have a stockpile of these lovely painted models, or are you painting and posting them in real time? (in which case we shall refer to you as the paint god)

    :)

    I finished them last week and didn't have time to take pics, I'm trying to get the bases done this week on around 100 models.

    It looks like the ghosts are really glowing. As someone who also goes for green ghosts I have to say I enjoy those a lot.
    Nothing against @Ritual and his cold blue ones but these are right up my alley.

    I was thinking glaze. I did that for my Balewind Vortex. Not as cool as these but similar.

    It's actually Biel tan green at the tail, then Waywatcher half way up then Nihilakh oxide, then drybrush with white skull.

    If you want them a darker green base them with Celestra grey and drybrush with Pallid wych

    The yellowish tone is Waywatcher and I have done the Hexwraiths in that and it looks so cool, I started basing them all last night, base coated 89 bases!

    You can do this as well,

    Base white then wash with Nihilakh oxide then when dry do a recess wash of Bieltan green (keep it in the deepest recesses) then drybrush Ulthuan grey and then do a spot highlight of white scar.
