Skeletron repaint

Post by Red Laser »

Based on Bob Brechin's prototype I had a go at getting mine to look like it. Using Games Workshop's Ceramite White and Badab Black wash I brought out the detail more clearly. Image

Here is Bob's prototype Image

Thanks! I know Palitoy cut costs but I think if they added the detail in Skeletron he would have looked much better. He looks great as a Co-pilot for the Roboskull as well.
