Looking so cool... Definitely digging the "Black Shield" Skull painted on the wall, quite nifty!

+1 on the graffiti. The flames look good, i like they way the surrounding wall has charred black with the flames.
Is the slime going to be pouring through that hole in the green room i wonder?
Great work as always.

Nice touch with the skull. I'll side a bit with TMU on this one, a little more OSL (object source lighting) would help bring out the torches. The soot on the wall is a really good tough.

I'm looking forward to seeing this finished.

I think both flames and the OSL are fine. When you zoom in on the picture you'll see that much of what you think is flame is actually the OSL.
If anything, you might darken the yellow OSL a tiny bit, to have contrast between glow and source there. The wall is not white, so the OSL would have to be slightly darker than the actual flame.
The walrus mural is an awesome touch. You could try to weather it with a very thin brown washlike paint, pulling and streaking it down.
All in all, I would absolutely love to play in that dungeon.
Figo, you capture the HQ feel so well with this.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm going to leave the flames be. I'm 100% confident that they're at the upper limit of my abilties at the minute, if I touch them I'll make them worse :D

As always Knightkrawler your spot on, I'll weather the white skull before varnishing, it's far too fresh looking. I'll post some more pictures over the next week.

Figo out.

Thanks Sparky.

Yes the slime will be coming from that hole and onto the floor. Then I'm going to move on, as I'm getting too caught up on little details and new ideas. You could spend forever changing things and adding things, then never getting finished. I'm only realizing that now. That's why I'm not going to add moss until all pieces are done.

Just a small update. I've gloss varnished this section of the board. I'll spray it with a Matt varnish when I've finished with adding moss effect. The moss really adds to the feel of the board. I was only going to add small bits but I think I'll do all of the corridors and every second room or do. As always all feedback welcome.

Awesome.
Do you have some lighter flock or even a completly different color like a dard red or a lichen or something?
You could loosen up the green that way (like highlighting), but it looks great as is, too.
