Tomb Kings Horse Archers

As my initial 1000 points of Tomb Kings nears completion, I've finished off the skeleton horse archers:


 

Surprisingly, the mounted archers seemed to take less time to paint than the archers on foot. If you want to see how I converted the horses and riders, you can check out these two older posts:

The Skull Forge Scenics small ruined obelisks worked out great on the bases, and help tie the unit in with other models like my tomb scorpion and necrolith colossus.

 

 

Here are come close-ups of the rider's equipment, and the horse tack:

 


 

The horse archers have already seen action in one battle. They failed to kill anything with their first volly of arrows and were subsequently shot to pieces by the Wood Elves, but they served as a nice little distraction and the rest of the army fought its way to victory. I only have four archers left to finish, and then I can begin work on the next 1000 points.

 



 

'Til next time!

  3. Do you have a guide on how to cast resin? I have some archers and I’d love to try and make some blankets for them

    1. My resin casting process is somewhat of a trade secret, so I haven't made any posts about it. The only thing I have is an old post about standard "open pour" resin casting from a while back: https://robhawkinshobby.blogspot.com/2012/07/wrath-of-kings-diorama-part-4.html
