Product detailed description
| Battlefield Role | Unique Features | Difficulty | Player Tip |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basing / terrain / dioramas – a fast visual upgrade for your army without complicated work | Universal skulls and bones for any faction, scenery and objective markers – fits AoS and 40K | Very low – ideal even for complete beginners (you only need glue and basic paints) | Dry-fit the skulls first. Only then glue + texture – it will look natural, not overcrowded |
Citadel Skulls
If you don’t want your bases and terrain to look “empty”, Citadel Skulls are the fastest way to a pro finish. A mix of skulls and bones in different sizes adds story, atmosphere, and strong grimdark detail – with no advanced techniques required. Perfect for Warhammer Age of Sigmar, Warhammer 40,000, and any other hobby project.
What’s in the Citadel Skulls set?
The set includes different types of skulls and bone details – small and larger pieces suitable for basing, objective markers, ruins, altars, trophies on wargear, or “story” elements for terrain. Even a few skulls on a base can massively lift the overall look of a whole unit.

Where does it fit in the Warhammer system?
Citadel Skulls are not a game unit – they’re a modelling accessory. You’ll use them most for: basing, terrain, objective markers, and dioramas. Thanks to the universal style, they work with almost anything: heroes, units, ruins, and scenic elements.
Main benefits of Citadel Skulls
- Instantly improves bases and terrain – with no complicated techniques and no “overdoing it”
- Universal across factions and game systems (AoS / 40K / dioramas)
- Great for objective markers and “story” details – your army looks more alive and professional
Which factions and armies does it suit?
- Universal: fits anything – Imperium, Chaos, Death, Destruction, and Order (depending on your paint and basing style)
- Dark/grimdark vibe: perfect for war-torn bases, graveyards, altars, and ruins
- Result: a fast visual “wow” effect even with simple, beginner-friendly painting
Box contents
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Modelling bits | A mix of skulls and bones in different sizes for basing, terrain, and dioramas |
| Material | Citadel plastic – easy to glue, cut, modify, and paint |
| State | Unpainted parts ready to use (recommended: dry-fit layout first) |
| Compatibility | AoS, 40K, and other systems – purely a hobby accessory |
| Recommendation | Best combined with texture paint, small stones, and grass tufts for a natural look |
| Tip | For a “pile of skulls”, focus the mass in one area and keep the rest of the base cleaner |
Recommended products for building and painting
A quick beginner baseline: primer + a few paints for basecoat, shading, and details. We’re keeping it simple.
Primer (recommended)
Wraithbone (recommended)
Use: a light base for fast bone tones and clean details
Core paints (minimum for “battle ready”)
Ushabti Bone
Type: Layer
Use: main bone colour for skulls and bones
Leadbelcher (optional)
Type: Base
Use: metal elements in terrain (chains, nails, armour scraps)
Agrax Earthshade
Type: Shade
Use: shading – instant “more realistic” skull look
Screaming Skull (optional)
Type: Layer
Use: quick edge highlights for a “wow” effect
Stirland Mud (optional)
Type: Texture
Use: fast finished bases – you can slightly “sink” skulls into it
Recommended tools (optional)
Plastic Glue / Super Glue
Use: gluing skulls to bases (super glue is safest for unusual materials)
Citadel Layer Brush (M)
Use: a versatile brush for basecoats, skull details, and quick highlights
Tactics / how it looks best
| Key element | How it works |
|---|---|
| Composition | Don’t spread skulls evenly everywhere. Make one “heavier” focal area and keep the rest subtle. |
| Fast painting | Wraithbone → Ushabti Bone → Agrax. Done. Optionally brighten edges (Screaming Skull). |
| Blending into terrain | Partly embed skulls into texture (Stirland Mud) – they’ll look natural, not “placed on top”. |
| “Wow” effect | A light drybrush with a bright bone colour makes a huge difference in 30–60 seconds. |
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Is it only for Age of Sigmar? | No – it’s a universal basing accessory. Works in AoS, 40K, and beyond Warhammer. |
| Do I have to paint it? | You don’t have to, but paint makes a huge difference. Even a quick 3-step method looks great. |
| Which glue is best? | For plastic bases, Plastic Glue is enough. For textures/terrain, Super Glue is the safe choice. |
| How many skulls should I use per base? | Usually 2–6 pieces is enough. For a “pile”, focus it in one spot and keep the rest calmer. |
Continuing the hobby
| What next? | Why |
|---|---|
| Texture + wash | The fastest route to a “finished” base – minimal work, maximum payoff. |
| Tufts / grass | One small tuft adds contrast and “life” – skulls look even more realistic. |
Where to go next?
| Next step | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Texture pastes | Dirt / cracked earth / snow – skulls blend into them beautifully. |
| Scenic debris | Rocks, rubble, armour scraps – bases look richer and more believable. |
| More basing accessories | Chains, barrels, crates, or ruin bits – great for dioramas and objectives. |
