Yesterday I discovered that I have never photographed by these poor chaps: my Undead artillery battery. Shame on me.
The kit was easy enough to assemble. Few mold lines to clean up (almost none).

| Ral Partha Skeletal Ballista |
These guys are from Ral Partha Europe. In the 1990s, Ral Partha was bought by FASA. They subsequently released new miniatures for the Fantasy Armies Range (originally designed for Chaos Wars, Ral Partha's version of Warhammer). All of the miniatures released by FASA during this period were 28mm scale, vs the 25mm that was common in the 1970s and 1980s. The detailing is excellent, however they do not mix well with the older Ral Partha ranges...the models are just too big.
The skeletons are 28mm. Nothing flimsy about them. All my skeletons over the last 20+ years are done the same way: primed ivory, then airbrushed Reaper Masters Yellowed Bone, then given a warm brown wash...these days Anthrax Earthshade. Its nice not having to make my own washes in these modern times.
The crew is held onto the base with white tac. If necessary they can be removed to fight in melee or as casualties. I should probably sand the mold line off their metal bases.....all Ral Partha 28mm Fantasy Armies figures come with metal bases.
They are ready for battle....they are always ready.
