Maudeheim & Environs, Part III: Updated 07/21/24

Thank, Gatlag! I am glad you like her.
Now that you mentioned it, the background does make the pink pop.

Rumors of my death have once more been exaggerated...for the most part. I Have lots of things underway, six new Mushrooms ready to base, AND one completed base. Not to shoddy for an old rumored to be dead Old Man.
Stuff in various stages of completion:




A couple of ready to base Fang Face Carnivore Mushrooms:




Three in the works Mushroom Witches:






The first in the works Graveyard Spook:


Four ready to base Mushrooms:


A finished Mushroom base:


With a group pic:


So until next time whenever that is. Ciao Yall!

Haha glad you're not dead Deaf!
Just keep on bringing those sweet shrooms please! I like the turquoise ones the most of this batch! Matches really well with the bright orange/yellow.

Thanks, Gatlag. It is good to still be among the living...more or less. I am glad you like the new thingies. I am picking up speed & my new glasses are making it easier.
I finished the painting on The Spook. I have a feeling that there is a graveyard in my future...a miniature one that is.

THE LATEST: I have two new Cup Mushrooms ready to paint, The Spook is ready for basing, AND all the supporting cast mushrooms are painted, ready for basing.

The Spook:










The supporting cast mushrooms:




So until next time, whenever that is, ciao.

The bone color on the Spook turned out really good!

Thanks, Gatlag! I am glad you like The Spook. I tried a slight variation of my usual bool color. Now I have to remember what I did.

SO I did my white over black base coat on the two Flying Jack-O'-Lanterns yesterday. When I dug them out of storage to add the wings I was surprised to see I had made more than I thought I had. The other three may or may not get wings. If not, they will most probably become Pumpkinheads:




Until next time...whenever that is

You could also make the wingless ones like they are sprouting wings. So that you have various stages of wing growth.

Thanks, Gatlag. That is a good idea which is probably why it never occurred to me.

Haha it was though your inspiration that I got that idea.

This may be the beginnings of a Great Pumpkin from HELL! Gang.

I like the sound of that!

It is something I have been thinking about for awhile. One fellow over on YouTube did a Great Pumpkin video that was hilarious.

The Flying Jack-O-Lanterns now have new & even creepier eyes. The Faerie Winged Mushroom Witch is ready for painting, AND the Witch's Cup Mushroom have one painted & one almost completely painted...not too shoddy.
The Flying Pumpkinheads/Jack-O-Lanterns; I thought I had enough wings to do all five Jacks, but it turned out I only had one more set of wings. SO I now have the additional wings plus some on their way from Reaper:


The Faerie Mushroom Witch ready to paint:


The wings are from Safari toy butterflies:


One Witch's Cup Mushroom almost painted:


And one ready to base:


The inside of the cups:


Until whenever.

Great update! The eyes are indeed creepy! :O I Like it!
Also the orange pops really well!

Thanks for the continuing support, Gatlag! I am happy you enjoyed the update.
I am in the process of adding a face to Witch #4's cap/hat. I got the idea from a miniature Mini Bricks used in one of their videos. it should add a certain something creepy to the Girl.

Todays post are the new thingies I have ready for painting & basing: an updated Witch's cap, three new Mushrooms, & all the new supporting cast mushrooms. Nothing exciting, but progress nonetheless:
Domed bases ready for scenicing:


The new stuff awaiting painting:


The Witch's Cap has developed a personality:


Three new Mushrooms:






AND after finishing all the supporting cast mushrooms, I now have some more to do up:


Until whenever.

Witches, A Spook and very creepy eyed Jack O' Lantern flyers, you really are embracing the dark side with these Al.
Your wonderful creativity never ceases to amaze!

Thanks, Rob! I am happy you enjoyed the stuff. I am becoming more & more Halloweeny in a silly sort of way.

The large amount of models you work with in batches is always fascinating to see. Lately I can't do even just one model!

It is a far cry from the numbers I churned out when I was painting historical minis, but I guess I am doing quite a few at one time. Doing them in batches assures that they are approximately the same color scheme...it's also nice to have a bunch all done at once.
You have to consider too that I don't have a lot of other things going on in ly life.

Yeah, that's true but still I do admire your determination to keep on going strong as always!

Thanks, Gatlag. I fully intend to keep at it for as long as my heart continues to beat. I'm a bloody minded old coot!

Haha that's the spirit!
