More minis to terrify players with!

Originally I was going to leave them as pristine white marble


But after staring at them for a while, I realized that they needed just a little more interest. So I gave them a bit of mossy weathering.

Ever since Dr Who, I have never been able to look at statues in quite the same way...

 

Edit - forgot to mention - Great job!  They really look like statues and I can only imagine how cool it will be when you replace the "standing" statue with the "moving" statue!

I really like those.

 

You know if you placed them at the four corners of a stone roof all facing out, they could all wake up walk two steps and squish unsuspecting adventurers.

Excellent idea with the moss. It'd be hilarious if the players found them face down in a pile of ruble and they made their way onto their feet.

They look naturally worn. Well done! I like them!

[Gabbi]

Love your stone effect.

[Chaoswolf]

Good call on the weathering; they look awesome!

[Evilhalfling]

lovely.  

I should really get 4+ of those. 

[AutumnHare]

Thanks, everyone.

 

Jkemeister: I agree. Statues of all kinds must be treated with suspicion. But I still think that the Silence win the creepy monster contest.

 

WerkRobotWerk & Type2: I like the way your minds work. My players will not thank you for giving me ideas.

Nice

That moss effect is very nice. How do you go about it?

[AutumnHare]

The moss effect is something I first saw when Buglips did it to the base of Kaladrax. Paint the stone as usual, then put a little wash in random areas that would be in shade. There are actually three wash colors I used in there: an olive green, highland moss, and a blend of the two.
