My next attempt with Photoshop Elements 11. I am really enjoying playing around with this software.

Raising the dead

Witch is a Games Workshop wood elf. Ghosts are possibly from Ral Partha (not sure. Got them from a bring and buy).

The ghosts and the witches skin are really painted green/white but her dress in closer to black. The blue overlay i used to give a night look has made it more like purple.

Thanks a lot people.

How big is a giant?
A while ago someone posted the question on the fantasy board "Who makes 15mm scale dragons?". It was a wierd thing to ask because in my opinion dragons can usually be used in various scales. A small dragon miniature is young and a big one old or ancient.
I do the same with giants and i love this model. It is a 28mm (1:56) scale Forest Giant miniature from Fenryll Miniatures that i use in 15mm, 28mm and 54mm wargames. It was fun to paint.

[/url]

Here it is together with 15mm barbarians from Copplestone Castings.



Here it is with 28mm miniatures from various manufacturers. The wizard is a Games Workshop Gandalf figure from the 1980's.



Here it is together with a (roughly) 54mm scale old woman and who is about 42mm high (base to eyes). It is actually a 28mm scale ogre crone from Bad Squiddo Miniatures.



Here it is together with a 1:1 scale steam flunky.

Are those Dacian heads on Frostgrave soldiers in the 28mm picture? I love the look, works so well with the fairy tale vibe overall.

Very well painted. And that last picture  lol

I must say, I'm continually impressed with how you manage to tie so many figures of different scale and from different manufactures together so they look like they belong in the same fairy tale universe.
