Tree or Forest Spirit/ Mushroom Updated
« on: September 02, 2011, 12:46:56 PM »
Hi Everyone  :)

Was messing around with the idea of a Tree, Woodland Demon / Spirit last night.

Sorry about the poor photo's and blue tack holding the arms on  lol


What do you think?





cheers
George

As someone who is noted for his fondness of STRANGE & SPOOKY Flora, I must say that your Tree Guy is a SPECTACULARLY COOL mini. I'm really looking forward to your progress with him/her/it...&, of course, other Beastys in the Works that you might care to share.

While it frankly doesn't look very tree-like to my eye, it is a very interesting figure...

At one point it was going to be a mushroom man, them my friend said it looked more wooden  :?
Not sure what it really is at the moment  ???
Sometimes I just mess around with clay and see what creatures I can make without any planning.

What does this one look like or remind anyone of? ( apart from Rubbish  lol )

I was very much thinking mushroom man, so I think you are/were on the right track. Maybe try given him a mushroom cap headpiece and see how that looks?

Exactly what I was going to say, he looks like a mushroom man without his mushroom cap!

Yeah, mushroom man to me as well.
The eyes seem wrong for a treeman... like they oughtta be deep hollow knots or something... not sure. The current ones almost look like sunglasses.
Also, the texture seems more fungoid to me.

I thought it looked like a giant walking cigarette butt :D
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

"Smoking can kill you!"  lol

I think the piece has a LOT of character, and it could certainly go in different directions  :)

Hi, Thanks everyone for the feedback :).

I'm going to do a few mushroom caps for it, so it can be used as both.

cheers

I like it - think it will go well with the Occulites from Ben...

It does need a top though - bushes and 'shroom would make great options

Definitely a better mushroom man if you ask me.  You could even do variant caps to get more figure variety.

Hi Everyone,

With the advice of the forum I went and made a mushroom cap for the creature   :)

What you think?



Thanks
George
