Wonderfull DrMathias, lovely painting and great scenery. Are the mushrooms homemade ?

Amusing color choices on the hair Hubbynz, four hairy blonde feet and it's the redfoot with the attitude :) Nice old school look to them.

Sinewgrab- The figure is 'Yrsa the Accursed' from Red Box. A couple years ago she was announced as going OOP so I snapped her up along with the goblins. At the time I didn't know how damn small the Red Box figures are  o_o

Ollv-  Mushroom forest from Atcheson Creations. It was one of the pledge levels from a recent Kickstarter they ran. I bought two sets for my Foundry nymphs to frolick in :) I'm not sure if the set is available, the KS price was pretty good.

Finally a picture that shows how cool Tre's goblins are! Great painting! And Redcaps are exactly the way I imagined those goblins looking...

Soooo glad you were able to make it into the competition in the end, Dr. Matthias! I would seriously miss your photographs and minis otherwise.

Oh, and I'm with you on the Acheson Creations binge. I joined their 14/7 club so I could spend hundreds of dollars on their 40% off sale! Love, love, love their stuff!

Acheson wasn't even on my radar until you used one of their pieces in an LPL pic last year and I asked you about it. I saw the one in question (an oriental head statue) at GenCon and snagged it along with some other useful stuff. Relatively simple casts but they paint up well. So, thanks :)

Hi Matt, what a brilliant and beautiful setting. I am relieved to see that you are using terrain and not the threatened background. Your work is always a great inspiration for me. :)

Shame you came up against the master Hubby NZ, those are more than bloody good

Matt I'm really looking forward to seeing more of your creations
