Color Guide: Ossiarch Bonereapers Stalliarch Lords Deathriders

Howdy Y’all in this color guide I show you how I painted my Stalliarch Deathriders.

I have been wanting to start a Calvary themed army for a while. I decided to go with OBR because I have all the other Death sub-faction why not have collect them all. I was also excited to try my hand at painting all that bone. I wanted to go with the Stalliarch Lords color scheme because I like the rules of the legion and they are the horse lords so thematically it worked out.  I had planned to paint this army to a basic tabletop standard. Using the listed method it took me about 1.25 hours per model, there is a good amount of shade drying time and I was working through the techniques I wanted to use, so the time could vary a bit for you.

The primary techniques I used was dry brushing and edge highlighting.  If you wanted to take your models up a level, I would focus on blending the cloth more and put one more layer of highlight color on the bone.
