You've probably seen that Thunderbolt minis is closing since there's another thread about it in this very subforum (they are accepting orders up until Dec 25th), but I wanted to point out this particular range of theirs, just in case you hadn't actually looked at the site: https://www.thunderboltmountain.com/collections/all/savage-and-sparkle

The woolies and the angry fairy girls "infantry" seems quite suited to your oeuvre.  :D


Thanks for the heads up, Fram. I've seen the Going Out Of Business threads, AND the Woolies are COOL, but I think I'll pass.

SO the Tree on the cliff is now the Tree on the ground...I'm going with more of a background look for the cliff. It is also primed & ready for paint & embellishments:






More later...maybe.

I did some experimental foliage work (Silflor Maaple, Autumn Red Foliage) on the second Tree Base, AND painted up some of the background Mushrooms:










The Tree may wind up as a pair of trees for the Woods...or not.

I agree - foliage looks bright and fitting for your setting.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, von Lucky. It is appreciated.
I added some Mushrooms & grass tufts to the base. Now it's time to find The Right miniature to inhabit the place:






There you go.

Thanks, dino...glad you like it.
I'm working on the Trollop's (a female Troll according to Mythadventures) base while I try to imagine what mini will work with this base.
From the expression on the Mushrooms. I would tend to think a Babe of some sort would be the way to go.
