Mantic Skeletons to Skeleton archers

Hi guys
Well basically I want to be able to use my Skeletons as either archers or warriors (in Kings of War and in Tomb Kings list).
So trying to use only mantic bits (excepting the pole from the banner pole) I set to work.
Please let me know what you think! The skeletons will remain detachable from the formation, and the regiment bases are split into 2 blocks of ten models.
I'll be spraying ant painting them shortly

Hmmm, I dunno. You have the impression of bows there, but won't it look strage when they are just normal Skeleton Warriors?

Yes your quite right
the bows are pretty basic (thinking of adding 'string' using fuse wire...
I'm going to stick on all the spare swords (in fairly obvious places) as well, or to be honest, after reading the rules a bit bit more, I really like bowmen, and may just keep them as that!!
(perhaps adding them to back ranks of warrior units to create hordes when neccessary?)

That is probably the best way to do it. Then you can also add extra hand weapon/shield guys into spear units.
