The Gloomy Forest
« on: 28 May 2013, 02:52:09 PM »


Made with greenery garlands, floral wire, and florist's tape. The skeletons are from Reaper Miniatures' "Bones" line and are included for scale, atmosphere and proof that I did actually finish them.

LOOKIN' GLOOMY...erm, GOOD! I hadn't thought about using the florist tape, but it does a very nice job...I'll add it to my craft store shopping list. VERY WELL DONE!

CONGRATULATIONS on finishing your Skeletons! Even in a distant shot, they look TERRIFIC!

Super stuff. Forests are so necessary to any good fantasy gaming.

Looking good, Froggy!

Yet more inspiration for the jungle terrain, when I get around to finishing it.
Thank you!

Excellent scratch building on those trees, very creative. And those skellies look marvelous :D :D

My first set of Bones will arrive in the post next week. Looking forward to painting up my Dragon.

Nicely done! I like the wide spread of the roots and the canopy. It gives a neat tunnel effect to the photo.
