Awesome stuff friend!

Thanks, Mo!...glad you like them. The bottom one is on the same angle as the bent floor section to add to the general weirdness.

Dorian Grey has nothing on those.

Thanks, Steve! What an interesting idea! I wonder what Dorian would have had to do to look like the one with three eyes & tentacles.

[FramFramson]

Haha, brilliant!

Thanks, Fram

I love how your inspirations come through in your work, yet it is all so unique. Others have mentioned the Henson vibe (maybe it's the beard too?) and besides the obvious visual link, I get the feeling that many of these denizens are simply misunderstood. They don't really want to scare anyone, it just happens that way sometimes.

Thanks all for yet again adding to my reading list!

Thanks, Jevenkah. Seeing Jim Henson's inspiration in my stuff is quite a compliment...for moi that is.

The Picture of Dorian Gray is a must read; it's Oscar Wilde's only novel. Here's a photo from the 1945 film of the same name:



...looks a little like my stuff just more two dimensional.

It's not much of an update, but I figured I may as well post something while The Camera is still with us. This is the face on the upper story door that I promise Jevenkah; she's was inspired by The Junk Lady from Labyrinth:



AND I started on the Twisted Tower of Rapunzel the Man Eater:



...this is the lower section. There will be a residence added to the top, the home of that EVIL Rapunzel.

[Jevenkah]

Love it! Thanks! I'm honored to be a little part of this build.

And Rapunzel must be Evil indeed to live atop that tower!

Thanks, Jevenkah! Your idea for the face on the door worked out nicely; it was just the right finishing touch...SO credit where it's due.
When I got sold on the idea of doing Snow White, Crime Lord, & her Seven Dwarf Henchmen I picked up a few new minis for Herself. SO now I have a couple possibles for the Evil Rapunzel...or not.

You've barely started and that tower's creepy already!

Excellent

Thanks Guys! I've finally escaped the '60s; now I'm living in Henson & Burton's backyard. Creepy, Disturbing, & Silly are my things...Man! I'm glad you are both coming along for the ride.

Thanks for the morale boosting reply, LordOdo! I'm not really all that sure where this is all going either, but it all seem to work together AND I do like surprises also.
