What you need now is a big black dog' Church Grim 'to guard the church and graveyard. Plus the new local Squire with his Pig faced bride.
As the victim's of the witch.

I could make the pig faced bride I suppose, but I’m struggling to find a black dog I like….

I've a couple of spare dogs from the Follies police sets.( only made two,and think I've only got a couple of one left.)
Have you thought of asking Dag's as he's quite a few sculpted.

Thanks fella.  I was thinking along the lines of the Moor Hound from Reaper…..maybe a bit too big?

No the bigger the better As it's not technically a dog but a manifestation of a guardian entity.
Uk Folklore is chocker with big black dogs. Once your mates know it's likely to turn up. Then having it transform from a little dog .Gives you the fun option of making them paranoid with all the locals pooches being inexplicably. Small ,black, and wandering around your table.

It will need to wait until next month however…spent up for now.

Portman just handed me this little haul, so nowI can get on with dressing the remaining plates.

Left to right

Green stuff World, Reaper, Ainsty Castings, Renedra.

What I particularly like about all these, is that you don’t have to make it too outlandishly gothic in appearance.   That way, I can obviously use it for different games.   Many of these are quite plain to the touch.  A simple dabbing on of textured paint will sort that out.

Lovely collection - no doubt some of them marking the resting place of those fallen in battle. Wish my postman would bring me a little parcel...oh, wait, that means I have to purchase something first...

Half an hour over my lunch break and they are ready for textured paint and sanding.



I have just a handful of stones left for a couple of cameo pieces should I want to do them.


Edit:

Sanded

The pathways are what make the scene work for me.
Got to kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight.
