When I zoom in a bit I can see the shading looms top notch. The ghosts have turned out well. Not sure about the sculpts but the colour scheme is superb and they look great as spooks. The dinosaurs look awesome! I agree that some stripes or some kind of markings would be in order. However, you pan t them as you would like them.
