Maudeheim & Environs, Part II: Updated 06/30/16

Love the interior view, gloomy atmosphere.

Thanks, Mike. It might get brighter with the next painting & some furnishing, but the atmosphere should remain.  

Impelled by a surge of something vaguely resembling energy, I added the previously mentioned Owl's Cote to Snow White's Den of Iniquity:









While this isn't really a major addition to The Urban Blight, I has given moi a few ideas for other ramshackle structures clinging to the sides & roofs of the proper tenements. It's WONDERFUL how one idea will spawn others...it's rather like a staph infection.  

WHAT KNOCKERS!

Thank you, Doctor...erm, Ben!  

Actually I meant the rings to be a means of opening the doors (pull & open style) rather than as knockers.

Thanks, Jim. Nothing makes the Holidays go by in a merry manner like keeping busy on something enjoyable. AND dropping in a Young Frankenstein quote should never be passed up.

Thanks, Daniel...glad you like them. The steam punk ones can be a bit fiddly, but otherwise they are pretty easy to do &  effect is pleasant.  

SO, after searching & buying a bunch of likely candidates for the position, I found The Perfect mini when I did my latest reorg of The Workshop from HELL!. She's an O.O.P. Enigma Steam Punk Voodoo Witch Babe. At a towering 40 mm she will dwarf her underlings...since they are mostly Short Folk, this isn't much of an accomplishment. With the surrealistic look of my stuff, she should fit right in. Here she is posing with The Owl Rider:

Very nice

Thanks, Rat! Have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!  

Thanks and HAPPY NEW YEAR also to you!

I imagine the cat slipping out of that door and roaming along the roofs. Looking good as usual friend.

Thanks, theomar! Have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!  

Happy New Year Al!

Looking forward to seeing the witch painted up.

Thanks, Jim...HAPPY NEW YEAR to you also!

I've had the Voodoo Chick hanging out for a couple of years. I got her at a modeling show in Austin along with one of Enigmas tall Dwarfs of an evil nature. It will be good to see The Girl in full color.  

Well, what to say but GREAT STUFF AL, oh, and happy new year to you!

Thanks, Ben...AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR to you!  

In a spurt of something vaguely resembling energy, I have Rapunzel's Used Armor & Weapons Shop built, primed. & ready for some paint & details:










...there you have it. The Slum surrounding the Tower should be progressing along with the Urban Blight board. While we're waiting, feel free to comment or break an Old man's heart.  

Love the crooked house

Thanks, V.K. The rest of the surrounding slum will match up more or less in style.  It should give me more of an idea how to approach the more complex Urban Blight board...or not.

Thanks, Fat Rat!  

SO not an overwhelming update, but one does one's best. I will eventually have thorny vines encircling Rapunzel's Tower for the unwary to ascend to their dooms...insert sinister laughter & perhaps a clap of thunder here.  Now just a plain old gigantic thorny vine wouldn't do; ERGO I made some Flower Folk for The Vine:







...there you go. As always your kind comments would be most welcome...mostly.

If Hieronymus Bosch, Lewis Carroll, Salvador dali and antonin artaud had a 4 way baby and that baby fell into a vat of tea made from mushrooms picked at the crack of dawn in certain cow fields, which is in a cauldron warmed by a pyre of d.m.t this is what world that baby would live in! Equal parts terrifying and whimsical...actually more terrifying!
A beautifully crafted and realised representation of what is I suspect a mind touched by the fey.
my cap could not be more doffed.
