Making a 2nd army already? Why don't you just get 500points of Bret's in a legal army list, and painted, before doing something different?
either a grey pale skin look or rotting flesh look. Im sure there are more than one

though not a very good example theres number two to your one and im sure there was one featured in WD a few years back, although a good theme your not the first to do it. I myself have a undead elf army ive seen hundereds of them
''leave it alone give it a rest''
''do you mind i cant hear a word hes saying''
''dont you 'do you mind me', i was talking to my huband''
''well go and talk to him some ware else, i cant here a bloody word hes saying''
''DONT YOU SWEAR AT MY WIFE''
''i was only asking her to shut up so we can here what hes saying. big nose''
''dont you call my husband big nose''
''well he has got a big nose''
''what was that?''
''i dunno i was to busy talking to big nose''
To Methusula reply: I am useing the same army, but different theme of army.

To WeralltheSavage reply: like what coulor would make pale white skin? I got elf flesh and white, would that work for pale skin?
Thanks for all your help guys.

My suggestion is:

try a couple of different recepies on a couple of minis, and show them to us, so we can judge.

The way I usually do dead skin is basecoat white; various washes of liche purple; refine with codex grey and highlight with shadow grey; then wash again with some goblin green, and highlight again with a light grey.

cheers
