Re: The Last Hurrah Project: 04/14/24 Stage update & stuff!

[DeafNala]

Thanks for the positive/motivating feedback, Guys!

This project is quite simply EPIC! I really love the bonkers creativity that goes into each piece and the bright colours that you use everywhere which make the whole thing look like we're looking at a cartoon world. 

This January sometime will mark 50 years of Miniature Madness for moi; AND, with the Mushrooms & Goblins & all, I've finally found my little niche in the greater Gaming/Modeling picture...I never was too swift on the uptake. SO I figure I'll devote the next 50 years to this project.

Soo... Any plan to decorate the christmas tree with those mushrooms this year ?

Probably...if my plan to sleep through the entire month, thus bypassing the Holidays, fails.

The latest step in Mushroom Evolution brought to mind brought to mind an image of Grant Wood's American Gothic...my deepest apologies to Mr. Wood. For those unfamiliar with the paintiing:



AND the  Mushrooms:
W.I.P:




Painted:




How the Lads(?) will be based is still undecided, but in the meanwhile your kind commentary is once more solicited.

[phreedh]

What is there to comment on? =D Great as always, Alan!

[smokezombie]

Your an absolute loon DeafNala. Cracking work!

You have a really unique immagination and style of painting that I love. Keep it comming please.

I especially like the paint job on the ?good doctor.

Ooh a fine art twist in the tale!

Very nice - what's next -

Munch's Scream? Botticelli's Venus?

Thanks for the kind comments & the astute observation on my  sanity or lack thereof...trust me being a Crazy Old Man is a lot more fun than merely being an Old Man.

Ooh a fine art twist in the tale!

Very nice - what's next -

Munch's Scream? Botticelli's Venus?

Well...may be Salvador Dali; I love his The Persistence of Memory:



I'll bet I could do something with that that would send art critics screaming into the night.

Hmm melting mushrooms...

More lovely work from the warped imagination of the Man from the Bay.
Simply wonder, Sir!

Hmm melting mushrooms...

Sauce, anyone...?

[DeafNala]

Sauce, anyone...?

No thanks...I'm on the wagon.

[smokezombie]

No thanks...I'm on the wagon.

[Mason]

Really DeafNala? You surprise me.

 


Must be something else giving him the inspiration... 

[Thantsants]

Mushrooms? 

[DeafNala]

Mushrooms & funny little plants are plentiful in Texas...part of the Wild West Thing.

[twrchtrwyth]

What a fantastic project.

[DeafNala]

Thanks, twrchtrwyth! Glad you like it. After a weekend of reality, I'm looking to escape...SO there will hopefully be some new stuff shortly...hopefully.
