It kinda remainds of this....

Growing up in the 70th in a country where the 70th really where the 70th, this is a good example of the kinda cartoons I grew up with.

Much older I look back on the childrens tv-shows and cartoons there was and I think to myself: What on earth had they been smoking?

And I now have to ponder, have you been smoking those mushrooms?

The lunatic is awersome... great eyes!

What's the source for both of those figures? I was wondering if anyone made faeries of the "half-insect" variety.

This variety of Faerie is in AD&D called a Grig or some such thing. The ones I'm doing are from Reaper:

The Flighty Wenches are available in a 9 mini pack or separately.

The Loony is a West Wind's Goblin Hero. Due to the lack of photos I can't direct you to the pack he's in though.

Thanks again for the kind words. You'll find that things get progressively stranger although more focused as you go through the thread.
Cartoon-wise, I think my stuff is mostly Tim Burton & Bugs Bunny with a healthy mix of Jim Henson & Labyrinth for good measure...some of the stranger stuff may be totally original.
It's been awhile since I did any interesting smoking. The last mind altering mushrooms I encountered were I think at Woodstock or a Jefferson Airplane concert...both were a long time ago. Of course, flashbacks are a possibility.

Oooh, you have Woodstock bragging rights? I am impressed!

DeafNala · « **Reply #1233 on:** July 24, 2013, 02:11:57 PM »

Actually being a part of a significant event was a unique & memorable experience. I'm still surprised I went...seemed like a good idea at the time.

If you want demon fairies, Reaper do some great imps (in case you haven't already got some).... actually after writing this I think I might have seen some in your posts already.... my memory is not so great....

This may be a post to win the most useless post award.... oh well...

DeafNala · « **Reply #1235 on:** July 24, 2013, 08:29:05 PM »

Thanks for the Reaper tip, maxxev, I'll check for them. The Imps I posted/painted are from Wyrd's Twisted Range...they only make three.
I'm thinking of getting some of Reaper's Faerie Wings & Bat Wings to be combined with the 6th Edition Goblins for Goblin Faerie Folk.

maxxev · « **Reply #1236 on:** July 24, 2013, 08:43:28 PM »

Reaper only do the 2 poses I think:

I will get some one day as I really like them but not anytime soon

.

DeafNala · « **Reply #1237 on:** July 24, 2013, 10:11:32 PM »

They are cool little suckers...next time I get paid perhaps. It would give me an excuse for getting the wings.

My recent splurge on Insulation Foam Squares has created a Motivated Monster. One of the ideas is finally mounting up the Isles of Langerhans on a single board with an eventual extension for the Smugglers' Ships. This is the present arrangement of the Isles:

There will be connecting walkways at various levels, shiny water spots, marsh grass, & the occasional tentacle.
As always comments are most welcome...for the most part.

That is as always just stunning and brilliant.

Your imagination and skills are beyond any boundaries.

Regards,
Za

Thanks, Za! You are too kind, but feel free to remain so...my self esteem can always stand a bit of a boost. I wish my abilities could keep up with my imagination...actually that could be somewhat on the scary side.

Really nice, I love the fantastical look and the attention to detail - the miniature world you have created is just stunning!

DeafNala · « **Reply #1242 on:** July 29, 2013, 05:27:13 PM »

Thanks, Cyber...I'm glad you are enjoying The Project.
I've got the first coat of unhealthy-looking greenish brown down on the board; then I'll hit it with a spray coat & splotch it up...I love technical jargon.

Awesome! I love the look! I can picture oily, bubbly goo smoldering on that insulation foam. Are there closer pictures of that face-in-the-rock on the left? And are those burning faggots everywhere? I just love seeing all these fantastical details.

Can't wait for more pics!

Oh, Yes!

This is certainly going to look the business when complete.
A wonderful, natural progression to link all those lovely, characterful islands together.

Get to it, man.
Get to it!

(You may have noticed that I am a little enthused by this....
