MikeF's tank-killers use skullz as well.

Love a table skull; from AndrewG.

TeemuL teases one lovely sepia skull...

... but then drops 162 with the skulliest miniature ever!

Not even topped by MattT's Kharn the Barbarian! (127)

  2. Thanks for skull count summary - as impartial observer just wondering what is the largest ever skull count per single model - is it 162 to beat?? Plus love the Silver Bayonet figures!

    1. Great question- I think StuartL with 582 on a building (https://thepaintingchallenge.blogspot.com/2023/03/from-stuartl-final-entry-for-my-various.html), for purist miniatures it may be Nagash (155 + added base skullz).
