Thanks, randycarter! I am glad you like her hat...I'm rather pleased with it myself.
I have five more Mushrooms including one inspired by ZeroTwentythree just about done...the inspired one looks like he is dancing, Another, smaller Witch is nearing completion as well. Photos soonish...or not.

[DeafNala]

AND, in a rare spree of productivity, I finished sculpting six more Mushrooms & twenty or so smaller ones. These include another albeit smaller Witch & a ambulatory Puff Ball Infested Mushroom inspired by our own ZeroTwentythree:












Until whenever!

Thanks for the kind reply, Tactalvanic! I am happy you like the stuff. I have been having fun with the green stuff, but I always like seeing them painted & based.

New stuff here and one more lady to come to life!
But the Puff Ball Infested Mushroom is an entirely original creation! Great!
Eager to see it in color! Cheers!

I'm making THE MOST out of a rare burst/period f energy & enthusiasm. The Witch turned out almost in a Chibi style; that does fit with the Mushrooms in general.
I am not sure what the coloration on the Puff Ball infested Mushroom will be other than colorful. His legs/stem give him a ballet look with a healthy(?) dose of Oogie Boogie.

Almost to the word, this is what I thought when I saw him! 

One thing's for sure, the fungal world's variety will make sure you're never going to run out of potential ideas.

You know, it's been ages, but did any of your trees ever have animated chicken-of-the-woods-style shelf fungus hangers-on? Could do 'em simply as shelf fungus with a pair of those googly eyes on top, rinse and repeat until you have tree with entirely too many eyes.

Oogie Boogie beat out the Fantasia Hippos hands down. Melissa keeps a The Nightmare Before Christmas household; SO the inspiration is there. AND Mother Nature certainly has provided me with a multitude of different mushrooms to corrupt.

It has been years since the last Tree I finished. While some do sport shelf style mushrooms. I haven't used them for facial features before, but, now that you have planted the seed or, in this case, spore, I can see a lot op potential in their use...as moustaches as well.
Today the Mushroom Witch got a bunch of little mushrooms to add a Carmen Miranda touch to her cap. I also started the faces on a pair of Trees. Energy & attitude are still improving.

Bonkers and awesome as always!

Thanks, Malebolgia! The bonkers part is to be expected from moi.

Yet more wonderful creations from your fevered imagination, which is always welcome.
Look forward to the colouring in stage!

Thanks, Mason. I have been using my unexpected burst of energy to fill up the Mushroom Box & start back on The Swamp. Seems to be working. I must admit to looking forward to seeing them all painted up myself.

The new Mushroom Witch got some detailing to her cap:






Until next time...whenever that is.
