I've done a OSL Eye and Staff. The bone colour seems too bland any remedy?

I'm trying for a flayed skin affect much like that for the shaman, any Ideas?

When I paint bone I do a beasty brown (VGC Paint) undercoat, followed by bonewhite (2-3 coats thinned), and a wash of badab black or devlan mud to ad texture and interest, you might want to thin the wash a bit or pull a lot of it back off the bone with the brush. Them's my two cents.

I don't actually use citadel washes, but I make my own a la Les Bursley but those are the best citadel equivalents. What I actually use are Les' sepia wash or light body black. Les' dirty washes, now available from secret weapon, might be fun to try as well.

As for the flayed skin, I'm not sure, but you might try:

Beast Brown undercoat
2-3 thin layers of something like parchement/elf flesh
Light Devlan mud wash

With bone I mix up the colors every now and then, but usually it goes like this:

Basecoat: DARKEST BROWN YOU EVER HAVE. Mine's Scorched Brown.
First layer: Bestial Brown. Leave the recesses.
Second layer: Snakebite Leather or Codex Grey, depending on what kind of bone I want.
Third or so layer: Now this is where I can go wild. Sometimes I just go straight to Bleached Bone then final highlight with Skull White. Sometimes I wash it with Gryphonne Sepia and/or Devlan Mud. Sometimes I layer Fortress Grey, then highlight Skull White, and maybe wash it with sepia or mud. Often what I do is layer Dwarf Flesh, then layer Elf Flesh, then highlight with Bleached Bone, THEN extreme highlight with white. Wash if the effect is too stark, then retouch the extreme highlights.

I really need the flayed flesh now. Can anyone remember the Old article with Fabius biles skin cloak?
