Cleaned minis
The kids cleaned these minis themselves, with only a little bit of help from me.

Skeletons
These are the ten cent skeletons I bought a year or two back. This is also an experiment in dipping.

Skeletons
I tried two different dip colors.

Skeleton
This is the initial test subject for the darker dip. For some reason it was much thicker than the other color, I had to wipe most of it off with a brush.

Skeleton
Mahogany-dipped skeleton. The eye sockets don't fill quite well, I guess I'll need to add a touch-up phase after all.

Skeleton
Dark Walnut -dipped skeleton. I diluted the color with water (it's water-soluble varnish, not polyurethane), seemed to work much better.

Cathedral of Pain
I'm not quite satisfied with the roof (it's not steep enough), but it's a separate piece so I can redo it easily if I really feel like it. The Cathedral is just missing paint now.

Horse
Here's a dipped horse. I spray-painted it brown, added the other colors flat and dipped in Dark Walnut. Reasonable result for the effort, I'd say. Oh, it's a Foundry Celtish horse.
