Mountain Root of the Darkling Wood
Painted (mostly) using the painting guide by Borgnine's guide for Coniferous trees as outlined in the previous post. After spending many hours sculpting the miniature. It didn't take long to paint him as much of the detail was easy to pick out with dry brushing. I did change my basing method by using Stirland mud followed by a light tan drybrush and then using just birch seeds to create a woodland floor.
Overall this was fun project to do and I feel that I have advanced my sculpting skills and knowledge a bit through this project. In particular using a mix of green stuff and Milliput as a sculpting medium definitely made it easier and completing the project in stages was absolutely the right approach. This project also highlights the need to made a good wire armature in order to give the miniature the necessary strength for the table top.

Also got round to printing off some new backgrounds which are a bit wider and with a neat join which can be easily photo shopped out.
