The first batch of 6 are moving in the right direction. Over the white spray undercoat, they were painted with Rakarth Flesh, as per White Dwarf Dec 2012 and the beginners box leaflet. Then instructions diverge. The leaflet suggests a wash in Corroburg Crimson which I tried on one of them. Again, I feel this is too much of a contrast so used the WD advice - Reikland Fleshshade. Then it's a build up of Rakarth Flesh again and a final highlight of Pallid Wych Flesh. They await the orange eyes and painted bases.
The bibs and nappies and the cute little handbags were painted using WD info. ie Rhinox Hide, Mournfang Brown and Vermin Brown. Woodwork is Mournfang, Metal is Leadbelcher, washed with Nuln Oil and 'rusted' with Vermin Brown. Hair is Mechanised Standard, high lighted in Administratum. I've assumed that some of the spikey weapons are bone or horn and painted them with Rakarth, then Bleached Bone. All rather 'flat' but there are a lot of them!
The sculpts are excellent.
