What pissed me off about making this army was the skull emblem. I went through and made a whole army and failed at painting the skull design on. Then I go on games workshop a couple years later and see that they have silver skull shoulderpads. . .

Yah exactly and there was like one silver skull decal on each decal sheet and I bought a bunch of them and it still wasn't enough. Its a really easy army to paint and I love the emblem but I already am pretty much finished with my army and it would look awkward to put in figures with skulls bulging out of their shoulderpads.

It's quite doable to paint a skull by hand. Try to figure out the basic shapes:
- top part is circle
- eyes are triangles
- cheekbones are bigger eye triangles
- bottom part is rectangle below cheekbones.
Next you try it out 10 times on paper to get a feel for the shape. After that you do the outline with a pencil on your model and slowly fill in the shapes with paint.

Yah I realized that now but the shoulderpads definitely would have been a greater help. thanks for the tip. I'll try it.

Indeed. We feel your pain etc etc but this board is really for discussion and dissection of army lists.
