That's a great result, with the magenta & green oils you've created a really super split tone effect on the stone.

These look fantastic.

I’m impressed with your imagination to use the bright colours as the base then blend it all in to the finished piece.

Thanks for the kind words. The idea was to use bright colors to get some contrast and visual interest on the pieces. Probably a lesson I need to learn for miniature painting as well  lol. I'll add some more pictures of the other pieces in time, and maybe a shot of the completed terrain on the table.

The colours you are adding are great :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

It's been cool to experiment a bit with this technique. I did a different set of cast plastic terrain earlier this year that I painted with rattle cans and feel like a bold use of colors can make a really interesting result.

I've used the ruins a few times for games now. Overall they're pretty neat and work well to cover up a table.

I was a bit sceptical about the green and purple shades but the finished result looks great - well done. :-*

Wow, extremely impressive layout!  The motifs seem to be from all over and, at the same time, from unspecified backgrounds.  So these pieces could even work for an alien (offworld) setting.
