Thanks all!

What is your secret, though? Practice, innate talent, sold soul?
All of the above  ;D

wonderful figures and painting  :-*

and you've made me think re: minimalist basing - in fact taking that even further. Never occurred to me before ... 🤔

Nice, clean painting. 8) I'm curious about the basing, how did you achieve the moss effect?

Cracking paint jobs, so atmospheric.

I'd love to hear about the moss effect too please.

I'm using Summer moss pads from MiniNatur (Silflor in the US). I've given them a thin coat of a saturated bright green with an airbrush to take away the plastic sheen and make them pop a bit more.

Thanks for that Nicklas; I can see why you added the bright green they look great on your base.

Not many paintjobs hold up to this kind of closeups. Amazing, really. Is airbrushing a part of your process?

Thank you. I use my airbrush very occasionally. Mostly for stuff like the dusty legs of the skeletons or to get a general idea on the OSL effects.
