Screaming Skull Catapult Kitbash, Final

After about a month of work, the Screaming Skull Catapult is finished. Here's a look at the painted war machine:

 

Screaming Skull Catapult Kitbash, Part 4

With a final bit of sculpting, I finish up the catapult this week:

 

Screaming Skull Catapult Kitbash, Part 3

In this week's post, I tackle the basing and crew for the catapult (and a few other details).

 

Screaming Skull Catapult Kitbash, Part 2

Last time, I tackled the basic construction of the machine. Now it's time to address the mechanical details of the winch and modular assembly.

 

Screaming Skull Catapult Kitbash, Part 1

For this project, I'm combining the Ossiarch Bonereapers Mortek Crawler with parts from the Tomb Kings Screaming Skull Catapult to create a better-looking war machine. 

 

Ushabti Archers

It took forever, but my Ushabti Archers are finished at last!

 

Bowshabti Blitz!

In this post, I race against the clock to see if I can build and paint this Ushabti within 48 hours...

 

High Priest Settisis

Settisis is finished and ready for the battlefield!

 

The Tomb Guard are Finished (Almost)

Taking a look at the full unit of 20 Tomb Guard (minus their banner) and a new basing element from Skull Forge Scenics–

 

Liche Priest Conversions

In this week's post, I'll show you how I converted these two liche priests from the new kit with a handful of other parts.

 

Vampire Counts Enchantment Spell Tokens

The first of my end-of-year projects is finished– The bat-themed enchantment tokens for my Vampire Counts:

 

Race to the Finish

My painting queue has been stacking up with projects, and now it's a race to see how many I can complete before the end of the year!

 

Selketta's Battle Standard

At long last, my Tomb Kings army has a battle standard!

 

Bugs! Bugs! Bugs!

Just a quick post showing off my completed Tomb Scorpions and Tomb Swarms–

 

Royal Heralds

I finally got my hands on the new Tomb Kings kits, and built a much-needed battle standard bearer for my army, and finished painting the herald from my previous post.

 

Performing Micro Surgery

I've had my eye on this model of Sekhar from the Soulblight Gravelords– Her Lahmian aesthetic fits right in with the Tomb Kings, so I grabbed one to convert into a Royal Herald. I figured it would only be a matter of sculpting some bandages and removing the vampiric blood-drop iconography, but the project quickly became more complicated... 

 

Building a Baggage Train

The undead have no use for cabbages or cargo, so for my Tomb Kings baggage train, I designed a cart carrying a mummified Emissary of the King, and a collection of artifacts and scrolls. Here's a look at how I kitbashed this bespoke centerpiece model. 

From Beneath the Sands

I'm closing in on 2000 points of Tomb Kings– Here's a look at my newest unit, skirmishing skeleton archers, and some of the other projects in the queue.

Skull Forge Scenics Desert Obelisks

Here's a look at the obelisks and objective markers that I painted up for my Tomb Kings army.

In addition to the Necromancy spell effects, there are enchantment spells like Van Hels Danse Macabre, and magic items like the Helm of Commandment, which can increase characteristics like Movement, Initiative, or Weapon Skill from 1-3 points. Here's my process for making some Vampire Counts-themed tokens to track these variable bonuses:
