Can anyone suggest how to paint Osgiliath so that it looks like the ruins on the GW box. I have a lot of grey stone ruins so I want the different look. Any help is appreciated.

I'd use Adeptus Battlegrey (Mechanicus standard grey) as a base coat.
Then some drybrushes, first heavy then lighter with (in order) Codex Grey (Dawnstone) Fortress Grey (Administratum Grey) and a very light dry brush of white.

You could use black washes to dampen the colours if its to bright.

For the greenish colour (mould or whatever) I'd use mixes of green and grey)
