The Gangs of Maudeheim, Part I 01/06/19

Bachmann's SceneScapes are another brand of tufts that I use. Heki's pull apart grass mats are terrific as well. These are available from model train shops.

AND the second of the new Pumpkinheads:




...seen here with the first of the new Guys:


The Goblin Faerie should be the next thing I do...or not.

...the next thing I did:








There you go.

all 3 looking good to go in their halloween party colours ( ' it's always halloween party time here kid ...' )!

fantastic as ever.

Thanks for the kind reply, Harrocks. I am happy you like them...it is always Halloween here.  

SO a Group Photo of the Goblins & Mushrooms:




There you go!  

Great stuff DN! Good to see the Goblin Faerie in his full glory -- but the pumpkinheads are really outstanding. Though I have a terrible feeling that despite the bright colours, they're still able to sneak up on you...

Thanks, Rhydderch. You just can't trust these new generation Pumpkinheads. I am glad you like them anyway.  

The Big Spooky Pumpkinhead is underway. I based him up last night. This morning & early afternoon, as my defraggler was churning away on the Old PC, I did the base coat on base & Pumpkin Person:










...a little groundwork detail:


Then some hanging moss was added:




AND some color:




More later..."later" being some vague future time.  

Later came earlier than I thought it would. The base is coming along nicely:






Seen here with some older spooky stuff for reference:




Sweet dreams!

love the expressions on the gravestones in particular ... but all fabulous as ever.

(btw, the 'troll-tree' to the left there, is new to me - wonderful. Face reminds me of the Ogre (peter vaughan) in the movie 'time bandits'!)

Thanks, Harrocks. The haunted gravestones are splendid foils for the main characters. I am glad you like them.
The Tree is i The Ritual. I did the group a couple years ago. Here's a better look:

lovely piece Deafnala.

Thank, Harrocks!

So much creepiness!

Excellent work on so many things! Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween to you as well, Jim. I am in the wrap up stage of the Big Spooky Guy.
It won't be long now.  

Good job on the pumpkinhead, fits right into your evergrowing collection!

Thanks, Grimscull. I am glad you like him. Despite giving stuff away the painted/finished pieces are accumulating at quite a rate.  

I finished the Spooky Pumpkin Fellow last night & took a few photos just now:










I haven't decided what is next...a nap sounds promising.  

It is time for the photos of this month's stuff beginning with some Group Portraits:










The Mushrooms of the Month:








The Mushroom/Goblin Shaman...he may be a combination thereof:




Faerie Goblin with experimental, paper punch wings:






The new fang face Pumpkinheads:















The Spectral "it's-the Great-Pumpkin-from-HELL!, Charlie Brown" Pumpkinhead:






There now, wasn't that just a horrid experience?

well yes.

but also utterly, utterly (did I say utterly?) brilliant.

black suits the big guy well.

Your trees are just the best btw.

Thanks for the kind reply, Harrocks. I am glad you like the stuff!

OH BABY!!!

Wow! So much cool creepinesss!

Thanks for the OH BABY!!!, Jim. I am glad you like the creepy stuff.

If he didn't like the creepy stuff, this would be the wrong place to be. A grand month's haul DN!

Thanks, Rhydderch! I am happy you like the creepy stuff as well. All in all not a bad month...for an Old Man.
