Band of Skeletons

I hope you can help me out here. I think that there's something wrong with the Lord. What?

Funny idea! :lol:

I really like those, Bogro. 8-)

Is that the head from the Ice Spirit special?
It goes well with the skeletal parts. :)

Actually, it is the head of the ghost-special:



But to us, they all look alike  :lol:

But really, somehow I have the feeling the Lord doesn't fit in with the rest ...

Great idea!!!
This makes the ghost much more 'special' i think i will go for it too.

I don't see anything wrong with the lord in gold, although i must admit i find the silver bandmembers more appealing.

Ahh... I never bought that set, so I didn't pay much attention to it. :-[

Aside from the different coloured armour and style of breastplate, he looks the same as the others to me. :eh?:

Hmmm... He's wearing a ball and chain too. Maybe he isn't supposed to have one because he's the lord? :-\

I agree, Rob!

Great customs, Bogro!

When I first saw the "subject" I didn't think that I would like them.

I am very happy that I looked, because there really are cool!

All the best,
Richard

Bogro

I think it's because the silver-armoured guys look cold, dead, slightly ethereal and scary, but the gold looks a bit too warm and friendly.

If there was a silver crown he might do better in all silver, or making him all silver except the gold crown might look good. Really neat customs, a great idea and I wish I'd done it first!

I wouldn't want to meet any of them wandering the battlements while I was on sentry duty!

The Tower of London is one of the most haunted buildings in the world. Well, it's stood there over 900 years, and a lot of nasty events have occurred inside, and there have been many prisoners with plenty of time to contemplate their impending torture and death. These guys would fit right in!

Great figures

I agree about the gold, I think that's where the trouble is. Do you have one of the old chrome crowns? That would be ideal along with black armor instead of the gold.

Hello again, Bogro ...

After Martin and Tiermann posted their replies, it became quite obvious, IMO, that the silver armor really fits the best with a "skeleton" army.

Thanks again for sharing these really cool customs that you created.

All the best,
Richard
