Started painting Raihn's HeroQuest figures after the space marines. The mummies were a good next-step because I got to use colors beyond the starter set. They also don't require much attention to detail.
Painted the skeletons next. I used Bleached Bone on all of them (you can see on the left one what it looks like without wash), but depending on the amount of wash you put, you'll get different variations of the "old and dirty" effect obviously. Also, experimented with different colors and textures on the blades and staffs.
The first one turned out too green, like the Hulk,its eyes look too sunken in; he just lacked that decayed look that zombies love so much. Needless to say, the second one turned out much scarier: bright white eyeballs, his unfortunate victims' blood spilling out around his mouth and strewn across his chest, clothes, and axe.
It got progressively harder once I started painting the zombies. They had clothing, hair, and other details to consider... like giant staples on the back of their jackets? What?
