Maudeheim & Environs, Part III: Updated 06/14/20

Thanks for the reply, Codsticker. The tiles are a bit of a drudge, but they look good.
I am using DAS air dry clay; the same stuff I use on my tree bark. I got the idea fro Creative Mom on You Tube:

AND the fourth of four roof sections is tiled:




That was a drag.

The hard work is done!

It probably is. Overcoming inertia was a close second. Thanks for the reply, Codsticker!

Here is where The King of Nothing stood as I started the day:




By noon the King was ready to assume his throne...base:




AND now His Majesty, The King of Nothing with His Royal Court (the Mushrooms like the idea of being a Royal Court...whatever that is):

There is a wonderful feeling of release in finishing a piece.

Really, it's a little piece of art.

Thanks, Codsticker. I am delighted you like it. The morale boost is appreciated.

The King of Nothing is incredibly cool

Thanks, Jim. Glad you like him. The lack of anything of interest on the tube is aiding in my productivity.

AND some end of the year Mushrooms/mushrooms:




A JOYOUS NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL!

One of the Reaper Forum Guys posted this inspirational Mushroom pic in my thread there.:


SO I decided to do my own version of The Mushroom Mage.
The basic dolly:


On to the Green Stuff:
















She may be taking over the Trollop's Tree base if she turns out as I hope she will...one never knows; do one?

AND later the same day she got her face, hair, toes, & skirt:








There is a distinct possibility of a further update.

Now the Mushroom Mage is all green stuffed. Later this afternoon she will get her base coat &, perhaps, some color:










There you go!

Noice! He's even got a little cane.

Thanks for the reply, Codsticker. The cane meant a rework of the hand. That proved to be easier than I thought it would be. I am glad you like it!

That's a rather beautiful picture -- & a fine adaptation of it, especially in so little time! I get wound up quickly when I have to use green stuff, so my admiration is redoubled when someone gets such good results from it.

Thanks for the kind reply. Rhydderch. I am glad you like her. I usually take longer working with green stuff, but everything seem to just flow..go with the flow.

There is a reason for just about everything; at least, everything that isn't politically motivated. The Tree has crossed eyes. The reason is he has a butterfly on his nose; the butterfly concept was canuckotter's (one of the nicest of Reaper Forumites).
SO I got a butterfly punch, made & painted said butterfly, AND attached it to the Tree's nose.
The finished Tree:








A better look at the Butterfly:






AND the local Mushrooms:


Now wasn't that fun?  

AND now The Mushroom Witch & The Tree (she looks more like a Witch than a Mage; ergo, the name change):














This may be a turning point in my mini making...whatever that means.  

Finally got to look at the whole internet, wonderful work amigo!

Thanks, Jim. I am glad you like it. I am making the most of my energy surge...this doesn't happen often.

AND I have my version of Marjory The Trash Heap (Fraggle Rock) underway.
This Jim Henson's Marjory:


This my Trash Heap a la Marjory thus far:






It's a start.  

The Tower is getting some attention. The tree is part of the Tower itself with the entryway between the boles. The door will be getting hinges & some sort of steampunky door knob gizmo:




Things may go a bit slower with more than one thing on the go, but nothing loses interest.

AND YET MORE background Mushrooms! The first one is inspired by a photo my friend, Lazetta, showed me. The extension from the gills reminded me of a shroud; SO a Shrouded Mushroom:


The usual gang of Mushrooms with 4 of 5 complete & a few hanging out in back:




The Fifth Mushroom seems ticked about not getting done with his friends.,,c'est la vie, eh?.

Although he doesn't look any happier, Mushroom #5 is now done:




I'm experimenting with a different stem color for the Cup Mushrooms, & did some organizing as well.

This batch of Devil's Cups are a bit thicker in the stem that the Alpha Model. I am going with a new whitish stem color with a red violet cast to the faces:




These are still W.I.P. with the cup, eyes, fangs, & details yet to be finished.
They do give a good idea of where they are headed...pretty much.
