The Gangs of Maudeheim, Part II 02/09/21

look beautiful Deafnala.
I've started to go through some of your 'part' threads here, and although I've kind of followed you on the LAF, there's so much great stuff I haven't seen.

I'd love to see the above bunch against a scenic b/ground too.

Thanks for the reply, Harrocks. I am delighted you enjoy the stuff.
I am surprised myself as to the amount of things I have made since the move to Texas.
The Trio will probably show up on a stage in one of the year end wrap up photos I am planning.

Great stuff DN- I like stripey pants on the scarey crow and the Voodoo man looks quite crazy .

Thanks, Codsticker. I am glad you like the Gang. Stripey pants are a favorite with me...the thumbs up is appreciated.
I would say the Sammy is definitely a few sandwiches shy of a picnic.

I started on Mag's (Magrat The All Seeing Trash Heap) Minions again today...they were initially started last January. The first of the two Combat Shrews is done. Seen here with the rest of the Gang:










Have a good night!  

I eventually figured out who that voodoo fellow reminded me of -- the lead gremlin from Gremlins! I think you've captured the smile perfectly.

Magrat has henchmen? Henchthings? I look forward to seeing them develop...

Thanks for the reply, Rhydderch. Sammy the Voodoo Man is one of Wyrd's Gremlins, which might explain the movie Gremlin appearance...G.W. isn't alone in making other Folks ideas their own.
Marjory The Trash Heap from Fraggle Rock, my inspiration for Mags, had a pair of Rat Henchmen. That is where the henchmen idea came from.

The second Combat Shrew is now done:








I really am enjoying doing these Dark Sword pieces...this may be a new addiction in the works.

Combat Shrews for the win!

Thanks, Jim...glad you like them. The Rats that are Marjory's henchpersons were one of the reasons I did the Shrews for Mags...the major reason was I thought they were cool. They are a treat to paint. There may be an upsurge in Dark Sword minis being painted.

The Lads of Mags' Minions are coming along nicely. SO I felt it would be okay to add another piece into the mix.
This is Ral Partha/Iron Wind's Fairy/Faerie Dragon with a couple of Mushroom Cronies.
As the looked on Wednesday:


Yesterday:


AND today:






I had hoped to get one of Grenadier's Oh-So-Silly Elf Dragons, but the Ral Partha is a reasonable alternative; AND silly enough to fit in with the rest of the nonsense.

This is most certainly true.

Thanks, Jim. I am glad you agree.

I did up some mushrooms to fill out the Faerie Dragon's base.


AND wrapped up Petruchio, The Shrew (Gringe) Commander.
Seen here with the rest of Mags' Boys:


...by himself:








Until whenever.

The Faerie Dragon is coming along nicely. I have the base made & the painting has commenced:




Now that Monty The Shambler is done, Mags' Minions are complete. Only the photos with Herself & naming the Shrews is left:








The Gang sans Mags:




After having the Gang sitting waiting for paint , it is a tremendous feeling of release having them finally done.  

AND some Group & Individual Portraits with Mags Herself:


Petruchio & The Shrews:


Petruchio:






The Shrews:




Monty The Shambler:








That wraps it.  

fraggle rock ... used to like watching that ... fulton mackay ftw!

not been getting notification emails about this thread, was wondering why.

love the shrews.

* oh yeah - hadn't seen the bigger guys (and gal!) finished when I posted the above - pics hadn't loaded. great.

That dragon has a Jabberwockish look to it. So, it certainly fits the nonsense!

Good to see Mags & the gang in completion too -- an impressive display, especially with the henchcreatures showing off the scale of Mags!

Thanks, Rhydderch. I have a Jabberwocky in backlog as well. He is quite an impressive miniature.
Mags is a BIG Girl. I am glad you like her & the finished Gang.

I got some work in on the Faerie Dragon's base:




...along with a couple other bases:


Have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Looking good DN.

Thanks, Codsticker. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

AND some early morning progress:




More later...or not.

pustule-y perfect!

Thanks, Harrocks...glad you like it!

As the day comes to a screeching halt, this is where the Dragon stands...so to speak:


The rear view gives a better idea what the wings will look like:


Sweet dreams!
