About the Project
Here I will rake through my box of forgotten projects and paint some of them. I'll even try and find a use for them.

This Project is Completed
First out of the box
Some Lord of the Rings stuff. I've just finished Pelennor Fields so these will definitely be getting used.
Some GW limited editions. They'll be getting warhammer quested. 
A beastman, some tomb guard and a dark eldar mandrake. They'll be going questing too. I'll use the shade as an assassin.Next out
A mounted vampire that came from Gamezone... I think. I'll slap him on a round base and use him for age of sigmar or saga
A wadge of Skaven I got in a trade. I'll get them tarted up, then they can go into my Kings of War Ratkin army.
XII from animal tactics, a table and Marius Leitdorf. Imma just paint these. The table can be used in just about anything.Mandrake
I decided to do the mandrake first, since he was already primed. He’s now going to be used in Warhammer Quest as a dark elf assassin.
The base hasn’t dried yet but it’s getting there. My camera hasn’t picked up the highlight on his robes. They’re actually really dark purple.
Barrow Wight wip
All I've done to them so far is spray them white and apply a coat of Nihilakh Oxide to everything that isn't supposed to be metal.Barrow Wights finished
My wights are ready to grace the battlefield.
The rusted metal was achieved using a coat of Typhus Corrosion over a layer of leadbelcher. I then drybrushed over it with Ryza Rust.
Staring the skaven
I’ve had another howk through the box and found some more Skaven. I also found some missing arms, which I reattached. I’ve cleaned them up a bit, because the guy I got them from didn’t bother his arse. And I’ve primed them, the guy I got them from just tried to paint on the bare plastic. And now I’m out of primer, there’s a trip to Halfords in my future. I did however make a base for them.
I say make, I mean textured a pre bought base, from Warbases. I mixed up a texture paint (filler, sand and paint) smeared it to the base. Let it dry and drybrushed it with Earth 72.062 from Vallejo game colour. I then stuck a few grass tufts from Tajima1 miniatures. I’m going for a blasted wasteland look.
Right time to get painting.
Skaven update
So that’s half the Skaven I found done. I’m waiting the last wash to dry before I pry the bases off. And then they can glued onto the multibase I showed yesterday.
Skaven next batch
So I’ve finished the next batch. They just need their bases removed. I also painted up this guy to go in the unit since I was missing a couple.
He's here with his ratty gimp mask and cattle prod to goad the rest into combat 
A note on these guys. I got them in a trade, but the level of building on them confuses me. First they all had their mould lines removed, but some still had little spurs of sprue attached to them. Secondly none of the arms were glued on. Thirdly some have been glued into the bases with plastic glue whereas others were just shoved into the bases. I find the inconsistency confusing.
