I hope this isn’t an annoying question, but how did you get the aged bone look on your ossiarch figures? Specifically the ones with the blue and pink armour.

It’s a fantastic looking ancient bone, looks the right amount of grimey!

It's not, ask away!

This one is very simple: it's primed black, and then I use a drybrush to do a zenethal highlight with ProAcryl Bold Titanium White, and I used Skeleton Horde Contrast on the bones, very liberally. I then come back later and hit *some* parts of the bones, mostly the highest parts like the "articular cartilage" and a line across the "diphysis" of the bone as needed with an off-white such as Screaming Skull, both by Citadel.

Pallid Bone Speedpaint is suitable instead of Skeleton Horde if you have it, the difference is negligible (check out my October 10th post, each of the last image are done with separate contrast paints, there's virtually no difference between the bone color of the Boneshapers: https://www.tumblr.com/hopeminiatures/730851082397499392 )

I completed, at the very least, 202 minis this year (to basecoat level or more) My goal last year was 150, so I smashed it. Goal for 2024 will be to do 300 models (my tentative plan is a mini a day in 2024, if I can manage it)
