Re: The Last Hurrah Project: 04/25/24 Mushroom & Mini-Me Mushroom Done!

Always cheering to see your work, great bright fun.

good job Marty

Working nights (from home now - joys of technology) my ginger assistant is unimpressed though and is very strict usually regards when his servants should be gone to bed!

and yes its an interesting juxtaposition that I am the assistant's servant, but he is a cat, and I have the opposable thumbs!

Thanks for the kind reply, Tactalvanic! I am happy you enjoyed the new addition.
Like most cats, Marty thinks I belong to him rather than the other way around...actually we belong to each other.
We have the same sleeping pattern; i.e., a series of long & short naps interspaced with hours of activity. I worked night shift for years. A steady shift was easy o adapt to; it was the rotating shifts that killed me. Now that I am retired I can sleep when I want.

WOW, she turned out fantastic! The painting really brought that sculpt way up!

I too am blessed and cursed with the night owl gene... I know exactly how that goes! As for naps... one of our cats frequently demands I lie down and hold him so he can sleep feeling secure, and naturally I obey without question.

Thanks for the kind reply, Fram. I am delighted you like her. I am plodding along with the next two Witches & some mushrooms now.
Napping is a team sport here. Marty either likes sleeping on my legs or in his cat cave next to the bed. Life is better with a cat in it.

I finished the third Mushroom Witch yesterday & took these photos just now:








ANDthe three Witches together:


Now I have only the Witch with the butterfly wings to do. Then on to YET MORE madness. Until then.

[DintheDin]

Charming, all of 'em Witches!
They have a benevolent look and I'm sure they are eager to heal any animal or plant in the Spooky Woods!

[FramFramson]

Another excellent witch! Three of them means you have enough for the classic triad coven

Thanks, Dinos. I am, as always, delighted you like her/them. Charming is an appropriate description of a witch. The Girls do look like fairy/witchy Godmothers rather than the cackling children eaters of lore. The one with the butterfly wings has a sour expression which I am thinking of changing.

Thanks, Fram. I am, as with Dinos, delighted you like her/them. I also was thinking of the Witches in Macbeth once I had three.

They always look the best in the woods theater.

Thanks, syrinx0! I am glad you like the stage. The photo stages do add a nice setting for the thingies. I hope to finally paint the Twisted Tower stage.
I haven't used the Mushroom Forest or the Urban stages for quite some time. I will have to do so again soon.

[DeafNala]

The Faerie Witch is finally done. She is the last of the work in progress pieces that I had sitting on the bench:










Now on to new strangeness.

[DintheDin]

Wow! The Faerie Witch is one of your best!!!
And the basing is excellent! Gives the feeling that light emerges underneath!
I am always enchanted looking at your pics taken in the Spooky Forest!
Cheers!

Thanks, Dinos. I am happy you liked her & her base/entourage. After procrastinating for so long, it was a joy to finally finish her. I am pretty pleased with the results.

[Basementboy]

Extremely trippy- I love it!

Always a blast to catch up on this thread, and I'm glad to see Marty has your modelmaking properly supervised.
