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

Thanks, folketsfiende...glad you like him.   
I'm making some noticeable progress on the Isles board. I installed a dead fall connection between Oozy Susie's & Crazy Mary's...Slimy George will be haunting the area underneath...lest someone should fall in & need rescuing.

As the intro say, I've made a bit of progress on The Isles of Langerhans Board. There's still a lot to do...at least from my lazy point of view, but be that as it may, here's where we stand now:

An Overview:


I found this Oh-So-Cool Twig down near Pecan Creek; I'll try to get a better shot next time...it has all sorts of little holes & such. That aside it's now a dead tree connecting Oozy Suzy's Rock with Crazy Mary's Cay:


The walkways & ladders between Crazy Mary's & The Stoned Hedge Isle:


...with the Many Eyed Tree of Ogling:


AND the Dead Fall Bidge from Frag's Sacred Rock Bar & Grill to Stoned Hedge Isle:




Now that I'm coming up to speed (for a Feeble Old Man that is) progress reports should come more frequently...or not. In the meantime your kind commentary would be most appreciated...mostly.  

Amazing board! Love those islands and the connectors with the wooden bridges. The vegetation is also spot on. Very realistic!

All looks terrific!

Will you be putting varnish over the stream of water at some stage?

Thanks, JoaoS...glad you like it!

A couple of layers of gloss over some water effects (for ripples) will follow the beds of reeds close to the shores. There will also be quite a few more walkways at various levels. It seems the more I do the more I want to add to the Beasty.  

Great stuff DeafNala! This is what I was been waiting for. To see the whole thing put up together. Again great stuff!

Absolutely fantastic. Whole composition looks great. These colors - honey.  Really I like it

That is one truly amazing board!

Oh this is great! The walkways, the bridge, the place names.

I am so glad to hear that. There is never enough.

Thanks MUCHO for all the kind comments, Guys!   
I'll try to have it closer to completion by this time next week. Then it's on to the adjoining Goblin Shanty Town, Eidelhans, & Graveyard; with Goblins liberal views on such things, there's no societal dividing lines between the Mostly Dead & the Mostly Living...other than the Mostly Dead being somewhat more focused.
I still have a couple more Wood board to do & The Goblin Shanty City, Maudeheim proper, yet to finish. Then there's the matter of populating the places...I think a cold shower or a nap is in order here.  

As threatened, I took a LOT of photos of what progress I made with The Swamp. There are some new scaffolds connecting various Places of Dubious Interest along with some reed beds for Loathsome George to lurk in & the first layer of water effects. SO here are The Photos of ASTOUNDING Mediocrity:

The prerequisite Overview:


Swooping in & around George:




The Grand Scaffold connecting the Three or Four Sisters with Frag's Sacred Rock Bar & Grill:




Some additions by Oozy Suzy's:


AND just buzzing around:


















There you are. If any of you are still here, your comments & critiques would be appreciated...for the most part.  

Oh this is so cool! I'll be looking around these photos for days, or at least hours.  

Loving all the details, although now I want some denizens scattered about to give it that lived in feel. 

Absolutely FANTASTIC. That's all look outstanding and very, very climate  

Thanks, Guys. I'm glad you like The Swamp so far.  

There are a few Regulars done up: Crazy Mary with her Cupids from HELL! & The Piranha Boys. There'll also be at least four Witches PLUS Goblins & Various Ne'er Do Wells...a Goblin Shanty Town will adjoin The Swamp.

There's soo much I want to type, but my left hand keeps on being drawn back to the scroll-button so I can drool a wee bit more over my keyboard

...

Thanks, Quase! Second helpings are a compliment to the chef; SO I take return viewings as the kindest of compliments.
There's still some things to add & do with the Isles. I'll try to pick out details that aren't highlighted in previous photos with further posts. THEN on to the Shanty Town & Graveyard...etc...  

My pleasure (dang it! you made me open this thread again, and I just cleaned my keyboard!)

Oh, and by the way, very intrigued by those Piraña boyz

I can relate to the drool issue...it's part of my charm.
So it wasn't a total loss here are some old photos of the Piranha Boys hanging around by The Club:







The minis are by Four A Miniatures. I will have hopefully better photos of the Fishy Fellows when I take further Swamp pics...the "better" part is in question.  

Such a great gaming table! Are you planning on actually playing on it Alan? What game?

Thanks, MC!    
I may be doing some solo gaming on the Beasty. That would involve some narrating...so it depends on how literate I feel.  

Thanks for that!

Now I remember seeing them before, probably on one of your previous pages...
Not 100% what I'm looking for, but still : thanks!

ok, that looks awesome and completely terrifying. I love that overhead shot. The vegitation is great, you should be proud if this!

Thanks, theomar. I'm delighted you like it...I'm starting to myself.   
I just finished a coat of gloss over the swamp water & spotted a couple of places for some more scaffolding. You might have noticed that, with a scenery piece, the more you do the more thingies you find to be done.  

...and this is a truly FANTASY CLIMAT
Thanks for showing what is inside your head. Lovely  

Thanks for the kind word, Rat. There's more underway...I'm not sure if that's good news or bad.  

Love those fishmen, superb paintjob al!
