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

It's not The Restless Dead or the Dancing Dead for that matter...just moi. I just finished the crumbling retaining wall in the Graveyard. SO here are a few of W.I.P. photos:









SO it's a underway...may I have an "OH BABY"?!
Your comments & critiques would brighten my day...which speaks worlds as to my social life.   

Oh Baby!

Great start on the bone yard.  

Thanks, V.K.. I think it has potential...hopefully.   

Nice start!
I'll be curious to see how you'll turn this one into a creepy hallucinogenic graveyard

Thanks, Quase!    
Since I tend to wing it on construction, the final outcome is usually a surprise to moi too...I like surprises...mostly.   

looks good, now some tombstones please!

Thanks, Ben!    

Not just tombstones...I have the first two mausoleums almost fabricated; then a spooky tree or two; probably another hill ; & a tower.    

Sounds interesting. Are you buying or fabricating your tombstones?

Probably both; I have a couple of sets of Renedra Tombstones; SO those I might make I will try to match to their style, AND I will probably have some haunted/possessed grave markers in the mix.    

Gotta love Renedra tombstones - and the little birds it comes with!

I'm enjoying watching this and it's nice to see you carving some stone for a change from all the woodwork you did recently.

Thanks, JoaoS...the stonework is a nice change of pace.
The Renedra Tombstones are really quite nice. About the only critique I could come up with is they are a little too smooth; they could stand a little more texture. I had forgotten about the bird; so I dug one out...pretty cool & perfect for his surroundings.   

While I'm waiting for the Green Stuff to dry, I though posting a couple of progress photos might be in order to maintain interest...whose interest is another matter. I've been doing up a couple of Mausoleums. Initially I was thinking of adding a Mordheim Gargoyle from G.W.; after a moment of thought, I decided to do my own...the plastic part was just too twinky.

So here's how the board looks so far:


AND a look at the Green Stuffing (the Fellow to the right is Seedy Jon Apfel, Serial Killer & Man About Town):


Seedy Jon is a combination of G.W.Empire Militia & Zombie parts wit a Lead Adventure Mini head. His kill signature is a discarded apple core or two.

As always I would be delighted to hear your comments & critiques...for the most part.   

Love your graveyard. It is somewhat grey to my taste but I love it. The crumbling support wall is great and the way you tie your mausoleum with your previous work by greenstuff is great.

Thanks for the reply, havre! I'm delighted you like The Project thus far. The white on black color is my primer coat; I haven't started the actual painting yet...it will be just as colorful as the other boards, & definitely as strange.   

I managed to finish the sculpt & prime of the second Face-Above-The-Crypt-Door. SO without further ado here are some photos of dubious quality of the second mausoleum:





As always your kind comments & critiques would be most welcome...mostly.   

I love your greenstuff work on your second mausoleum.

Great job!

Thanks, MoM...glad you like it! There will be a few more such thingies haunting the Graveyard.     

This looks really cool Nala! Again great job you have done!

Thanks for the kind reply, Vagabond!   

Love the sculpted details on the mausoleums, the little faces give them such a unique character.  

Plus I want to see more of John.

Thanks, V.K.. The Over-The Door Guys do have a certain charm about them...I'm glad you like them.
Along with a new Crypt, I got a little work done on Seedy Jon yesterday. The results should show up soon.   

Wow, so much character your tomb, love it!

Thanks, Ben. It's good that you like the stuff since, along with Tim Burton & Jim Henson, you provided a large share of the inspiration.   

woowoo, beeing named together with henson and burton in one sentence is too much for me...........  
No, honestly, good to know that you that you can use my stuff anyhow.

Thanks, Ben! You're one of the Big Three with moi. So the next photos are dedicated to you:

AND NOW the first painted piece for the Graveyard, Marley's Crypt:

The long view:


Zooming in...




AND inside a trap door & could that be an apple core?:


As is my habit, your comments & critiques are once more requested.
