So are we! 

I am glad to hear I am not alone in this. Thanks for the reply, Fram!

I have it glued down on a 6' wooden circle

A six foot wooden circle? That house is bigger than I thought!

Photos can be deceptive as to size...actually that should have been six inches. I wonder how USPS would deal with a six foot circle.

The Swamp House is now based up:






AND The Snow White Gang got their bases painted:




Until whenever.

[DeafNala]

AND just when you thought it was safe to go to the pond, YET ANOTHER Magical Frog appears:


This one has Witch vibes...or warts.

Yesterday I painted the watery areas of the base, the reeds, & the creepy eyes:






with a closer look at the creepy eyes:


More whenever.

I am magnetized by the Swamp House!
Eager to see the Snow White Gang painted!

Thanks, Dinos!
The Swamp House is coming along more slowly than I would like, but then it is the first building in town. As the prototype I was expecting it to take extra time. It will set the feel for most everything else.
The Snow White Gang will be getting some paint time today & most of the week. At least, I hope so.

Absolutely love everything about the swamp house. Wish it was my vacation home!

Water looks great, and those eyes...of course there had to be some creepy eyes in the water! Awesome.

Thanks, Brett. I am glad you like it. The water will look more more watery after the gloss finish. The eyes were motivated by Gatlag's suggestion on T.B.M.F..
If things go as planned, I will have all the necessary materials to expand the setting on Saturday...OH BABY!. This will involve a not-so-fast trip yo Lowe's, Ace Hardware, & Michael's.

The first of the Snow White Gang is pretty much done AND his twin is under way:




with a view of the rest of the Gang:


along with all the rest of the stuff on the painting table:


More whenever.

Wow! Sturdy men with hammers and other interesting people, waiting to get dressed by your paintjob!

Thanks for the reply, Dinos. The preparations for my first Christmas gift giving in a LONG time cut into my painting time, but now I am down to the wrapping & things are picking up at the paint table.
I also picked up some building materials & other supplies on Saturday for the Swamp Thingies.

I think the orange armour could use just the slightest tad more shading in the recesses to break up the limbs from the body, but damn they're looking good. Love the faces on 'em!

Thanks for the advice, Fram. I will have to try that. I am happy you like their faces...they are rather attached to them.
