28mm Fantasy - Avatars of War Goblins

I am painting more this year, slowly but surely.  I purchased these guys off Etsy about a month ago, 6 Goblins in the style of Warhammer.  I normally dont work with resin figures, but I needed six guys to fill out a unit of Goblins that I had and they fit the bill.

There were many options for weapons, spears, polearms, hand weapons and bows, along with many heads to choose from.  The many spare heads will adorn some of my standards in the future as severed head trophies.  


The skin tone scheme was simple:

Vallejo Black primer, followed by white, sprayed at 45 degrees.
Vallejo Game Color Goblin Green skin, washed with GW green wash.  
Highlighted with Goblin Green again followed by Vallejo Model Color Lime Green and Yellow Green.


Other items were picked out with various random colors.  

They are large enough to warrant 25mm bases, but I mounted them on 20mm squares to keep them in line with my old collection.  


I am happy in general with the result.  They blend seamlessly into my larger unit well enough.
