Looks good!
From your picture it looks like you got your tiles in bulk?
Where did you get them from?

Those are probably tiles cast from Hirst Arts molds, I have the same one.

That looks awesome. I especially love the paint job. Was it hard to paint it to look that way? Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks guys!

The tiles are cast from Hirst Arts molds. I bought them from a guy in Hawaii who casts them in hydrostone. You can find his stuff on ebay.

As for painting the stone: I decided I wanted a warm palette so primed in a reddish brown. I then gave the stone a base coat of ochre yellow/dunkelgelb. From there, it was a matter of working up through lighter shades of bone/ivory with a wash (I used Vallejo's European Dust) and drybrushing a few shades of green for living moss. I drybrushed my lightest shade of ivory at the end to tie everything together.

Nice work Alfirin. Colour on the limestone looks spot on.

Wonderfully executed - I prefer stonework that is not monochrome in nature. Many rocks have reds, yellows and browns in them.
