I wouldn't use the warhammer cairn wraith. it costs twice as much as an actula barrow-wight.

That's nice too although his scythe seems somehow un-Middle-earth

Give him a sword and shield :idea:

I was thinking about doing just that :)
Also just noticed the Tomb Banshee looks like it has some promise as well after a wee bit of conversion work.

Some Mithril barrow wights, painted by me - still have to fix the base on the figure shared earlier in the thread, lazy me.

It's not so much that the sculpts are old fashioned - that wight upthread is only about ten years old - but the painting they use on the website is quite bland.

That's true, they look a lot better when painted by you. I have actually surprised myself a couple of times when the Mithril sculpts have looked a lot better in real life than in the 'official' pictures at their website.
