I need a proof reader. Thanks for the reply, robh!

Three new Mushrooms & a bunch of supporting cast mushrooms are now ready for basing










Not an Earth shattering update, but not all that shoddy for an Old Man.

That group of 'supporting mushrooms' as you name them looks really nice so grouped together. Perhaps you can give a group it's own shine instead of just being a support?

Thanks, Gatlag. I am happy you like the supporting cast. I have quite a variety for when I get around to basing stuff up.

This happy little Mushroom was sent to Friend Dinos in Athens several years ago. He is part of the Festive decorations again this year:


God bless us, everyone!

The Flying Jack-O-Lanterns are finally painted up & ready to base


AND some small mushroom are now in the ready to base stage as well:


Until next time whenever that is.

Love that mushroom for your friend Dinios! So much character on that one!

Thanks, Gutlag! Dinos' lovely wife, Nassia, puts my Mushroom in her Christmas display every year surrounded by charming miniatures that she has carved out of wood...talented Girl. To keep the Mushroom company I sent him a few more yesterday.

Ah very nice! Be sure to post pics of the New display if you get them!

Will do!

I did up some small mushrooms that I had sculpted quite a while ago. I'm working in reverse on these; i.e., normally I do the big Mushrooms then make small ones of the same sort. This time I am planning on making a couple/few big Mushrooms to match the small ones:




Have the MERRIEST of Christmases! God bless us everyone!

Love the colors!
Hope you had a wonderfull Christmass!

Thanks, Gatlag. Christmas was a bit strange, but enjoyable nonetheless. I hope you had a MERRY one.
The mushrooms are getting a little change in coloration. A few fellow had commented that the tops gave them a torch like feel. I had initially thought of a bright red for the tops; AND now I am repainting them with flame like colors.
I also have one of the Mushroom Witches all painted up & ready to base. I do photos later today or sometime over the weekend.
Have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Thanks! Best wishes for the New Year for you ofcourse!
I like the 'torch idea' so curious to the outcome!

Thanks, Gatlag!
I did the repaint on the torch mushrooms. They look pretty good...I like the color.
I also started basing stuff up. Pics soon.

Well things are coming along. I have a bunch of things hovering on the brink of completion with only some flocking & flowers to go:












There you go. Next post should have all these pieces finished & possibly some of the remaining Mushroom Witch closer to completion.. Until then...whenever that is.

AND I finally have some completed pieces to show; the Flying Jack-O--Lanterns & The Spook to be precise.
Seen here on my worktable:










I somehow missed doing The Spook on the worktable, but he can be seen here in The Spooky Woods:


















As things get done, you will be subjected to further photos. Until then...whenever that is.    

Love the updates! You've managed to complete a whole bunch of models! Sometimes I can get a bit jealous of you painting speed and what you have achieved. Keep up the goods!

Thanks, Gatlag. I am delighted you like the new stuff. It did seem like it was taking FOREVER to get them done.

Haha nice to see how perceptions can vary between to people.

It was a lovely, sunny, if some what cold day yesterday AND a productive weekend!
I now have wrapped up all the Mushrooms & all but three of the Witches that I had started last year.
Part I: Here they are on my worktable:






















Part II in The Spooky Woods will be along in a couple of minutes. The pic are taken, but I am posting in two parts on a few different forums. Save any comments until the second batch of pictures appears.

AND Part II: in The Spooky Woods:




























There you go! SO until next time...whenever that may be.

Very nice! Cant remember if I have seen that big tree on the left before, but I love it!

Thanks, Gatlag! I'm glad you like the new stuff.
I'm sure you have seen that tree before; it is a standard prop for The Spooky Woods photo stage.
