Managed to paint up the majority of a sprue of the Boneblades (I didn't paint the command stand yet).
They paint easy and they paint quick. Very pleased with the results and look forward to future releases for this range.

These look amazing thank you for the photos
Using the holiday break and copious amounts of dry brushing and inking, I finished all of the Boneblades, with the exception of the command stands. Nine total bases of sword and shield armed skellies.
A few pictures from the rear and side. They paint up easy and you get over a hundred figures for less than $23. You can break up the 2-dimensional look but canting some of the strips slightly. I picked up some Copplestone Castings evil characters and trolls that will be added to the undead and orc armies.
I've included a photo so you can see a size comparison of the WA and Copplestone 10mm ranges (L-R: WA Orc, WA Boneblade, Copplestone Orc, WA Orc, Copplestone Troll). The troll is quite big but I suppose they are supposed to be....since they are trolls.
These guys look clean as hell! bit of a dumb question: what are the little square holes in the back right of every base? they look like dice holders. either way, thanks for posting these guys look great.
@timbus the thirteenth they are indeed dice frames (from Pendraken). The rules I intend to use are Fantastic Battles by Nic Wright. In his game mechanics, bases have a factor called "resolve" which are essentially hit points or wounds. They can be as high as 6 (although this would be reserved for monsters or something) and every hit against the base results in the resolve going lower. The integral dice for the bases makes tracking resolve easy.
