Description
"In the murkwoods, at the old cemetary which was not often visited by reasonable people, the scribe consulted with spirits disturbed from their slumber. Broken bottles, a shovel left behind, and footsteps told the tale of grave robbers having unearthed this, and other graves, no doubt in search of coin to continue their drunken haze. Evidence notwithstanding, the spirit also told the red scribe the tale of village dregs. They had not only taken coin, but also a magical monocle. The scribe wrote down what he learned of their appearances in his journal, because he would seek out them at the tavern, and the fate of the thieves would be too gruesome to befall anyone innocent."
I primed the model gray, and then sprayed it black, and then white, with the zenithal technique. After that, I brushed it with half-dryed army painter speed paint "Slaughter Red" to get a marble-like effect on his robe, and after that I used a mixture of some hand soap, black colour, and water to shade the recesses dark, and then I used vallejo's red paint to try and highlight the protruding ridges.
The model of the ghost, and the grave, is designed by "Moonshine Miniatures", a studio that incorporated LED bulbs into their models. They're a studio that has been very good in their communication with me when I've sometimes had a lot of questions.
The model of the house is a design of my own, inspired by medieval houses, and swiss beam houses. The base is small, and then the above floors become successively larger, looming over the street. I imagine it is because the tax paid for the land the house is build on, only applies to the bottom floor, and thus you can expand as you go up, making for very dark streets. I have made the house from pizza cardboard, left over plastic from work, insect netting, coffee stirring sticks, XPS foam, spackle, and then I put a christmas LED-string inside of it run by two AA-batteries.
