Malifaux - Soulstone Vein

Under the listing for 'Soulstone Vein" it says that its no larger than 2" X 2". It also says that the master's base must be completely within the the vein for it to interact with it and gain soulstone tokens. With that i gathered the following items.
 
 The skeleton is a tomb kings skeleton torso, head and two arms. I intended on having it floating above the vein on a wire with greenstuff. More on that later. The gravel is road gravel.
The green glass is exactly that; decorative glass from a dollar store.

After a week of actual time and about 20-30 min of modelling time (I have many projects on the go) below is the result!
 I decided not to use the skeleton on this piece but instead use him in the "Mysterious Effigies" Malifaux terrain. This is mainly because taking him out and back in would damage the models over time as you have to have your master totally on this terrain piece to get the soulstones.
 I tried to create a green glowing effect with first dark paint farther out of the crevice then brighter as it gets closer. I think it works very well enough.
 Posing next to the soulstone vein is a malifaux neverborn master...Lilith. Her starter box and Perdida's are going to be my first gangs to paint. They are also the ones recommended for those starting off playing Malifaux. I have to agree with gusto. During Gottacon 2012, February in Victoria BC, after only playing twice i was invited to borrow a Perdida Gang and an Executioner for a mini tournament and placed second! It really counts to focus on your strategy!

Next terrain piece for Malifaux will be a "Creepy Structure".

Edit: Since 2E i've revamped the scenery required. Go here for a more up to date list.
