These are the ringwraiths from the LotR miniatures box set Attack At Weathertop by Games Workshop (you know, when Frodo gets stabbed, and Strider drives the ringwraiths away with fire).
Since I wanted some variety in these figs for use in Ghostwalk, I chose to paint them different colors, with a base coat of one color and a drybrush over that of a similar color (such as Scab Red and Blood Red). The swords, gauntlets, and steel boots of each of the ringwraiths is picked out in an appropriate metallic color (by Reaper): red with Fire Glow, gray with Steel Plate, green with Green Steel, blue with Blue Steel, and black with Gun Metal. And let me say right now that while I now have a complete set of Reaper paints (thanks, Ron!), I haven't gotten to use them much yet except for the metallics, but the metallics kick ass and so I suspect the other paints do, too. Anyway, then the metal parts were given a black wash to lessen them a little bit, and the bases were flocked.
