Scotia-Grendel Ruined Greek temple

Another item I bought at SELWG 2022. 

The kit comprised a circular base, five full height pillars, one half heigh pillar and three cap stones.
The pillars are plain.
Two of the pillars were pinned by drilling through from underneath, the other four were just glued in place. A circular infilled was cut to fit the inside.
Milliput was used to fair in the base of the pillars and to add some rocks and additional pieces of masonry. The ground was covered in a mixture of Woodland Scenics fine Cinder Ballast and some generic granite ballast.
The underside was sprayed with Citadel Mechanicum Standard Grey (I had run out of Halfors Grey Primer) The visible surface was sprayed with Citadel Zandri Dust, with a Zenithal spray of Humbrol Desert Tan.
It was then extensively dry brushed with Citadel Tyrant Skull followed by Citadel Terminatus Stone.
Once fully dry it was shaded with Citadel Agrax Earthshade. Another dry brush with Citadel Terminatus Stone brought up the detail.
Gamers Grass 6mm Dense Beige Tufts provided some plant life on the ground and a mixture of Woodland Scenics fine and coarse Burnt Grass turf created the greenery growing on the stones.
An Oathmark Human Infantry figure for scale.
