That works - I have tended to go with green for ghosts, but on occasion I do think I've used blue as well. 

I'd perhaps try a lighter shade, or a white dry brush over the top - to give a more ethereal / translucent look?

Thanks, I couldn't remember how I got there with these.

In the search for critters for the Dungeons I've struggles to find any in 10mm scale

So I thought I'd give it a go

This one's on a 10mm base

Will have to see how it handles use

Do you have access to a 3d printer? That would certainly help with random critters like spiders.

Unfortunately not and the couple of times I've tried to buy scaled down 3d prints they didn't manage to scaled them to 10mm more like 15mm

Yes, scaling on 3d prints does seem to be more of an art than a science! Often needs a couple of test prints to get things right. Which isn't very practical if a 3rd party is doing the printing.

Those look good to me, Corso. Nicely done!

For those not up to sculpting such things, Perfect Six ( https://perfectsixscenics.co.uk/ ) do a pack (RS1 Rats & Spiders) of ... yes, you guessed it! .... rats and spiders in their 6mm Fantasy range. Not a great picture on their website but it gives you an idea of what you are getting.

I picked up some of them a while back and they were a bit too small even for me  :D

What I'd really like is a range of swarms on 15mm round bases, maybe I'll try that next
