AND later the same day, the green stuffing is done on this batch of Mushrooms:




















With a shot of The Box:


Now on to the painting!

[DintheDin]

Haha!
The last pic looks like as if the whole group of these little rascals is dancing and singing to you with one voice:
-Paint us! Paint us!
And this is what you'll do!
Eager to see them in color! Cheers!

They do look like the Munchkin Choir. Thanks for the reply, Dinos. I am looking forward to the painting as well.

The last few days were largely spent dealing with cruel reality. I did manage to get all the MUshrooms & the supporting cast done up in white over black, These are the last of them:




AND The Gang altogether in The Box:




Given the opportunity, some of the Fellows may get painted &, possibly, based.

Although I have said it again, I admire how many different expressions you give to your faces!
I know the face has about four dozens of muscles, but after looking at your work, I think it might have more

Thanks Dinos. I am happy you enjoy the variety of expressions. They aren't really planned; they just happen.
Since I depend to a greater or lesser degree on reading lips, I watch the flow of expressions that folk go through when telling a story.
Some are so facially eloquent that they would have done well in silent films.

[DintheDin]

You have charisma in that!

[DeafNala]

Thanks, Dinos.

Not TOO cruel, I hope...

In any case, I'm sure reality usually comes up short when measured against the rather compelling world your mushrooms inhabit.

...Cap'n John had a good dose of something disagreeable. I just had to drive him to various doctor, tests, & such.
Reality & I went our separate ways years ago...we deny each other's existence.
Thanks for the reply, Fram. I am glad you enjoy the stuff.

A solid proof of the existence of Parallel Universes and of the Principle of Uncertainty in one!

Being more serious, our best wishes for Captain John!

Second that. The crud is never any fun to have.

Thanks, Dinos. I am happy to say that Cap'n John will survive. He looked so horrible for awhile, I had my doubts.

Second that. The crud is never any fun to have.

...especially with the temperatures hovering around 104 F (40 C). Being sick AND sweaty is cruel reality indeed.

[DeafNala]

AND the first group of Mushrooms for The Box is done. These are, I have been told, Button Mushrooms...I'm sure that that name could be embellished upon:






Have a pleasant evening!

[Mister Frau Blucher]

Now that's an attractively sordid line-up!

Best to Cap'n John and hope he's feeling better.

I'm glad you can keep reality at bay! That's a valuable skill.
