Absolutely brilliant work, here. I'm envious of your control over the brush. I've seen stipple-style painting on miniatures before but your technique is on an entirely different level.

I'm also really impressed by how realistically you implement greenery on your bases. It takes a keen awareness of nature to reproduce it so realistically. What brands of static grass are you using for these? It looks very fine but you manage to produce excellent, real-looking tufts.

Thank you for sharing these!

Thanks everyone :)

I'm using a mix of Woodland Scenics Fine Turf to which I've added ground down tree bark and used coffee grounds for the "dirt". The little patches of mossy grass are MiniNatur moss pads, I mostly use the dark green summer ones and the late fall/winter. I give them a touch up with the airbrush to modify the colour a bit and get rid of the plastic sheen.

I've revisited the bronze age skeleton concept with a different recipe. The miniature is a kitbash from various GW kits: Tomb Guard body, Craventhrone Guard head, Skeleton Warriors arms and a trinket from Kragnos for the shield.

Agreed, but the whole figure is brilliant.

That's great.  The equipment looks perfect, aged but still effective, and deadly.

Thanks all. Here's the second skeleton. I would ideally like to make more of them but the Craventhrone Guard kit only has two helmets with the proper styling.
