    You think KoW will supersede 8th Edition and 9th Age?

    You might be right, 9th Age has really dropped off since the 0.99 version of SA was released. Guessing where 8th Edition will end up is a bit more tricky.

    Ok Arkhan the Black is done and his paint scheme really does help bring the army look together, I've tried to stick to my 5 colour rule (@tom ndege)

    The little gravestones on the base are awesome, as well as the other details! His ectoplasmic tattered cape is brilliant, I really love the paint job there! The purple is very regal and looks great with the other colours here, and I don't even know where to start with Razarak. That spectral bone expertly blended and the eerie shading on him look incredible. Gorgeous model.

    Excellent work! Really nice how the sculls shine through the rips and how the cape turns from material to ethereal... Nice job sir!

    Incubi darkness at the top then paint the bottom celestrial grey wash with Nihilakah oxide then mix Coelia greenshade with medium 1:1 and apply at the join, apply between 6-10 coats and voilà nice blended cloak.

    Looks real nice! I am also a fan of the gravestones on the base. Where did you get so many?

    I think you meant voilà, viola is an instrument ;)

    Wow, that´s pretty cheap, 8 pounds for 48 gravestones is quite good

    Love your ghostly knights, need to try some spectral paint jobs myself too. Tried some LotR Ghosts when I was 10 but the result was, to say the least, lackluster! :D

    The Arkhan model is outstanding, really digging your colour palette!

    I looks sweet! Is the base going to be a swamp?

    Very nice colour selection. The green, orange & purple look very good together.

    Lovely color scheme (and looking forward to the base of course), I especially like the green and aqua-green scales. Beautifully painted, more pictures!
