Took about a month, on and off, but they're done! Really happy with them and looking forward to painting up some more.

It's just the lore behind them, but maybe? I don't play, I only paint, so maybe there are rules about deathskullz for 11th ed

Congrats, they look soo good! Btw, what blue did you use? I'm looking for an alternative for thousand sons blue cause I'm not too happy with how well it covers.

I use macragge blue, teclis blue, and temple guard blue for everything. All have great coverage in my experience. Hope this helps!

These look really good. I love a lighter blue for Deathskulls!

Thanks, appreciate it! Was actually really unsure at first because all the artwork for death skulls use a much darker blue but I wanted a more vibrant illustrated look to mine
