Started getting into painting the @doctorspork.bsky.social oldhammer tower. Went for an aged lime wash feel to the flat areas - a Warpaints Fanatic "Dusty Skull" with some sponge stippled "Ancient Stone" as the highlight. I may as well turn this into one of my threads going through the process.

So, two sponge layers of "ancient stone" later and we have a decent base to start blocking the rest of the colours. You could of course dry brush this, but the sponging gives more natural randomness and a drybrush will highlight layer lines on 3D prints like this more.

Whilst there, I've given the rocky outcrop on the base a one over with cheap Acrylic burnt umber. Burnt umber is your friend.

It makes those skulls look so small!

TBF, I did scale those down a bit for variety. I think the smallest is ~85%, biggest is 95%
