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

[DeafNala]

Of course you may sir.

Thanks. Feel free to call me Al...most all my friends do.

I love the large scale mushrooms. I can see a whole new venue for populating your fungi filled imagination. I was just looking at that picture you posted of the goblin next to the large mushroom and wondered if you ever sculpted any goblins?

Also, "Nausicca and the Valley of the Wind" was shown in American many, many years ago under the name "Warriors of the Wind". This heavily edited version was very popular with geeks and DnD players back in the 80's, when old folks like me called this stuff "Japanimation" and we were lucky to see any animation coming out of Japan.

Thank, Michka...glad you like it. I haven't tried my hand at doing Goblins from scratch...yet. I have quite a little horde of the older G.W. plastic Goblins of the Night & Above Ground Varieties in backlog, but some heavy conversions may well be in the cards.

I missed a lot of things that went down in the '80s. It was a less than happy time for moi.

Nausicaa - now that brings back some memories of night shifts watching anime videos to pass the time

[Constable Bertrand]

The Japanese versions come with subtitles too...

[DeafNala]

For moi subtitles are a major plus. Of course, without them I just make up my own dialog...I'm easily amused.

[Constable Bertrand]

I can imagine

You should be able to find it on eBay or on Amazon rather easily. It's a top movie.

Friend Floedebolle sent me a RAFM Wizard's Wagon to make something out of/paint. The Thingy was without the Goat power unit or the Wizard. SO I add a Reaper Witch, a Dark Hold Goblin, & various & sundry odd pieces to make Mother Hubbard's Wandering Witchy Wares Emporium. AND without further ado HERE IT IS:















...there you go. As always your kind remarks would be most welcome...mostly.

[aggro84]

Very cool DeafNala!
That's a cool miniature and and an even better paintjob.
I have noticed some Health Code Violations though.

Thanks, aggro...glad you like it.
It just might be slightly safer than a hot dog from a New York City street vendor....or not.

[DeafNala]

Thanks, von Lucky...that was the effect I was going for.

[Mason]

That is brilliant, mate.
Full of character.
 

Gotta keep an eye for that wagon AND witch for when I get back on the fantasy bandwagon.

Thanks, Paul...glad you enjoyed it.
The Witch is one of three in Reaper's 2904 Witch Coven pack (that's where the cauldron came from also). You can get the Girl separately, but the three of them are quite nice. I think the RAFM Wizards Wagon is still in production; it is a FUN piece...if not, I have an extra one.

[Katsuhiko JiNNai]

Fine paint job and superb background 
I like your miniatures, most of them (especially goblins and other grotesques creatures) have a vintage "labyrinth" style
