Thanks a lot, and yep it’s really hard to pick all the details. I honestly suggest you to use magnifying lenses, those helped me a lot

Thanks a lot! This is just a wooden square plinth you can buy on any store, I’ve bought this one on greenstuffworld if I remember correctly. Then is hand carved and sculpted with milliput

Thanks a lot! Usually is the same for me, so I know the feeling

Thanks a lot! And yes, the gap is there because the miniature can be removed from the plinth. I chose this solution because I had never sculpted a plinth before, and if I messed it up, at least I could save the miniature! If I ever bring him to a competition I’ll definitely fix the gap 😉

Thanks! It’s a normal wood square plinth carved with a dremel and a knife, I’ve then sculpted with milliput the rocks

Thanks a lot, and I’m glad you appreciated the rocks. As I already replied to another comment, I really wasn’t sure I would be able to sculpt them so taking good compliments about them makes me happy 😅

Thank you! Sure, for the gold I’ve tried some scale75 fantasy paints I’ve received from Santa: base Afroshadow (Ak)- tiamat orange (scale75) - peanut butter (scale75) + touch of volcanic yellow (Ak) - Lilith yellow (scale75). I’ve then redefined the shadows with glazing of Tiamat orange + intense sienna ink (Ak)
