Those wraiths look quite gruesome and they look great the way you have painted them, good job. With a different colour scheme they wouldn't look out of place as Nurgle gribblies either! The DC henchman is good too and it is amazing how the simple bobble conversion transforms him perfectly into a minion of Mr Freeze. Again great stuff.
