Hey Ghrask! Nope that’s one of the alternative heads of the cairn wraith. :mask

**Xander** :

I love your painting style, Ishkur. It’s so clean and nice. I want to attend a painting workshop taught by you. :wink:  
  
What’s your recipe for the grey rocks? 🙂

**Ishkur Cinderhat** :

Wow thanks! But seeing how slow and long my painting sessions tend to be, I think that would be a rather tedious event! 🙂  
  
  
  
My recipe for the rock colour: chaos black basecoat, drybrushed with a mix of vallejo light grey, then lighter mixes of light grey and vallejo sky grey, finished off with some very light strokes of skull white. I dust on some olive weathering powder here and there for a little extra colour.

**Ishkur Cinderhat** :

Here is what I have been up to around the weekend.  
  
My Cairn Wraith - the green witch fire I paint for some bling in my army does not seem to look really ethereal, so I’ll probably try something else with the Banshees on the Mortis Engine once I get these…  
  
 ![](http://www.feannadh.com/2_whfb/undead2012/pictures/gespenst.jpg)   
  
Right now I’m working on a small unit of zombies, not overly enthusiastic about the models since they are sooo bad and sooo old but as a fledgling necromancer you just have to have some around I guess. 🙂

**NoisyAssassin** :

LOVE the Cairn Wraith. The witchfire looks much better than the traditional ethereal look.

I really wasn’t too enthusiastic about painting these, but it had to be done. I feel they are some of the worst models currently in the GW range, the ridiculous hairstyles, the metres-wide hands, the casual-style clothing… but they are kinda necessary in a VC army and I had the models lying around anyway.  
  
It was a bit difficult to paint them with differently coloured clothes so that they are not too uniform and still stick to the overall appearance of the army. But I guess they turned out OK, what do you guys think?   
  
Now I look forward much more to painting the dire wolves and corpse cart still missing in my 1000 pts list! 🙂

**WilsonUndead** :

The painting on the entire army is awesome, I’m jealous of your skillz (with a Z). I don’t like the zombie models either, did you consider mantics zombies? I dabbled in a VC army awhile ago, bought 120 mantic zombies, really cheap. If you haven’t already, you should check them out 🙂
