you might want to put a few dollars down for a kit of Games Workshop Washes.

They are very easy to use and truly enhance the look of your army with no effort.
Gryphonne Sepia Wash used on Bone-like colors, badab black giving a dirty look to metals...

Also your Chariot horses are not fully painted, inside the ribcage we can clearly still see unpainted plastic grey.

Might want to touch that up.

1) Then you're doing something wrong. Are you diluting it like Water:Wash 10:1?

2) Before varnishing you should REALLY check your models man. Srsly.

1. straight wash, no dilution.

2. i usually do, can't belive this slipped passed me.

Might be too much lighting in the pictures haha, they look very bright if they are indeed washed.

[noble eldias]

well, its wash then bleach bone, the wash is mainly meant for the recesses.

[Silver]

you should try the opposite, the wash goes into the depths of the miniatures anyway, but gives a more uniform look to it all, slightly altering the bone color, which is where I prefer Gryphonne Sepia

Here's an exemple on Bones, where I applied "Dheneb Stone" Foundation paint, applied some "Dheneb Stone" + "Skull White" as highlights, and then washed it all.

Its just an exemple, but I think the way I've managed to paint them and wash them gave an excellent bone-like result.
You might want to experiment a bit with this, the Wash should be applied before highlights, not just as a mean to reach the deepest details.

as soon as i get some shields, i will definatly experiment on my next bach of axemen skellies. thanks for the pic, the skulls are nice, but the WE in the cauldron was a treat to look at!

No, no, no! That's the total wrong way. That'll have no effect sorry

You put the bleached bone on, then the wash!

[noble eldias]

thats what silver said. i replied to it. and actually it does have an effect. if you look most of the recesses are darker.

I guess you could try mixing paint with some PVA type glue to cover these areas.

The glue when it dries should be tinted by the paint and be able hold onto the varnish in the unfinished areas.
