Undead Army - The Coven Throne and Undead Cavalry

With the left over bits from my Mortis Engine, I realized with a little ingenuity and some work, I could make a Coven Throne to add to my undead army.  With that in mind, I got to work, using a Magewrath Throne by Citadel Miniatures as a base for the Coven Throne.


I assembled the Magewrath throne and mounted it on a movement tray.  For the spirit hosts, I bought a handful of cheap printer resin Skeletons from the Bones Line of Miniatures from Reaper Miniatures.  I based the throne in black, dry brushing it with lighter shades of grey.  

For the skeletons, I primed them with flat white spray paint, painted with Nihiliak Oxide, and then washed with Guilliaman Blue Glaze.  I then painted the metals.  

I also painted up the three vampires that came with the Coven Throne a brilliant red to make them pop.  I finalized the process by washing the miniatures in a 3:1 mix of Minwax Polyshades Mission Oak and Paint Thinner.  This method of washing gives the miniatures a lot of depth.  


In the end, I sprayed the Completed Coven Throne, Hexwraiths, and Black Knights in Matte Spray Varnish, based them with sand, dry brushed, and glued Flocking.  

Bam, the results speak for themselves and I am very happy with the result!




As you can see from the close ups, these miniatures look amazing and I can't wait to use them in a battle!  

Enjoy!
