Thanks for the kind words everyone, I think I enjoyed painting the hair the most.
I'm playing in a tournament this weekend (a first for me) so I'm trying to complete the Tara crew as quickly as possible.
Just as Kogan Style suggested, I'm using green to tie most of the Tara themed minis together (eyes on undead/beasties, flames on death marshals, Tara's sword etc)
Here is a quick shot of all the miniatures I've painted so far this week:
The Nothing Beast is also finished (I only painted the eyes as its a translucent mini)
And here's the list of what is left to do:
2 Death Marshals - 50% painted
Killjoy - only built
2 Void Wretches - attach to bases, eyes need painting
With the choice of Taelor, Killjoy and Nothing Beast, that should give me enough minis to field a good 50ss crew.
