Have you kept count of how mank shrooms you have sculpted so far Deaf? Including the ones that have escaped your clutches...

The sickle in the fruitful field;
The sword he sung a song of death,
But could not make the sickle yield."

Thanks MUCHO for taking the time to offer your kind commentary!

... have any of the mushroom been used in a game?

Not yet, but where there's life there's hope...I just can't remember where I left my life.

A veritable menagerie of species is appearing in the Texas area, it seems.
 ;)

They're taking over the entire house & some of our neighbors are missing.

Have you kept count of how mank shrooms you have sculpted so far Deaf? Including the ones that have escaped your clutches...

I haven't the faintest idea...I have 63 or so to be mounted & a large closet full & well you get the idea.

AND...
For those younger members of the Forum or those not familiar with OLD American T.V. shows, Clara Bell was a clown on the Howdy Dowdy Show...a mind rotting childrens' show of the '50s. SO here are the Clara Bella Boys with some paint...awaiting basing.





Hope you like my little update & comment if you do!

Certainly do, mate.
Wonderful stuff!

I must be one of the YOUNGER members then...(WOOO-HOOOO!), cos I had no idea of who Clara Bell was. Or it could be that I just live several thousand miles away and that show was never aired here.
I prefer younger... ::)

Younger is a definite possibility. Being spared the Howdy Doody Show is a blessing. At any rate here's what you were or weren't missing:



Pretty scary, eh?
I think (rarely) the next thing up will be some connecting walkways & bridges...maybe a resident Troll under one of the latter.

Actually the idea for the Clarabella Mushrooms came from a variety of edible (& quite tasty) mushrooms called bella. The Clarabella renaming just camke unwonted to sick mind.

It's good to see their are still T.V. clowns to inure the children to Life traumatic experiences. Thanks for the Clown photos, Guys...in addition to being cool, they'll give me ideas for the Travelling Circus of Horror that will be roaming the Spooky Woods...sometime.

The leapers look great - suitably manic!

Nice detail with the remains of lunch being evident with one of the cycloptic guys  lol

Cyclops you, yeah, yeah, yeah
Cyclops you, yeah, yeah, yeah
Cyclops you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You think you lost your clop,
Well, I saw it yesterday.
It's you it's thinking of
And it told me what to say.

Cyclopsy loves you
And you know that can't be bad.
Yes, Cyclops you
And you know you should be glad.



Oh well I think the one with the hand coming out of the mouth is especially brilliant. It almost says 'burp' to me.

Thanks MUCHO for the replies & song, Guys!
I'm going to base the more predatory looking Mushrooms on 30 or 40 mm bases to allow them to roam around...that got me thinking of "I Get Around" by the Beach Boys:

Round, round; I get around.
By leaps & bounds,
I get around!

That aside, I also imagine the Munching Mushroom coming up with a hardy belch...among other things.

Yep the middle Mushroom is the smoking gun, blowing the innocent act to bits..of course, the act wasn't all that successful to begin with.

He is the sketchiest of the three, I never liked the evil gleam in his eye. What is next for this project?
