Fungal Guardians in the Curse of the Crimson Throne adventure path were actually size Large. Although this same art is used for skeletons in the Bestiary. I would have preferred the skeleton image to be something else; not like anyone actually needs an image for a skeleton. This is one of the poorer looking Commons in the set. Many details are lost and the paint job is bad. The weapon also bends. If looking for a skeleton miniature, I'd pick something else. If looking for a fungal guardian for the adventure path, the size is wrong. (I suppose technically, they can change size between Medium and Large, but in the combat encounter written, you encounter them in Large size).
GOOD:
You can see very thin muscles over the arm and leg bones.
One eye socket is black and actually empty.
The boots and chain shirt are clearly visible.
There are red patches of "stuff" visible, that could either be mold or bloody flesh at the right shoulder and elbow.
BAD:
The weapon is bendy. The hair is too full. One eye is simply not painted.
UGLY:
Compared to the (Skeleton) artwork on page 251 of the Bestiary (or the computer render), you can see that there are a lot more patches of mold/fungus. Also the empty hand is holding a spiked shield.
This is actually what i expect of a common miniature. "Pathfinder Battles: Crown of Fangs" went overboard with the quality of the common miniatures, so that this normal entry seems bad in comparison with most others.
