Plodding Along on The Gaming Table, Part I: Updated: 06/05/116

Thanks, Mord!
I've got to admit that the Little Guys with the squint were my least favorite of the Pumpkinheads. However, it's a face that grows on you in time; the one with the pistols looks like he's about to close his eyes prior to firing the pistols off. The one with the crossbow has a sneaky glint...someone had better watch their backs.

@Deaf: It is indeed - that combination of dark blue and orange looks perfect for my chaos team, (with ice blue).

Laney:D

@Laney: COOL...I'll keep an eye out for the Lads in blue & Orange. This time I'll leave a comment in your thread.

AND The last (so far) of the Pumpkinheads is done.

The Crossbow Guy:







The Swashbuckler:







AND the Group Portrait:





HAPPY NEW YEAR, Y'ALL!

NICE! The Swashbuckler is my favorite... but seeing them all together is very nice. The question is... WHEN are you going to play with them?!?!

Thanks, Mord. While the Lads will be getting to see some action, I won't be the one leading them; they're already sold to SerialMom & will soon be on their way to Germany.

So they need to be re-baptized KürbisKöpfe? HA! Lucky SerialMom... I know the Pumpkinheads... errr... I mean, the KürbisKöpfe will be the talk of the town!

Hopefully the talk around town won't entail heresy & witch burning.

I figured I do up a couple more of the Mushrooms for Heep's Place...I may have gotten carried away. Looking at them all grouped up, they looked pretty sinister...SO I thought you'd get a kick out of the Mushroom Mob from HELL!:









I'm starting to come up with some D.S. style modifications for a new batch of pieces...consider yourselves warned.

As the subtitle says there's a New Tree to show Y'all. AND HERE HE/It IS:











With a couple of possible planting sites:





AND the long view:



Comments, critiques, & endowments would be GREATLY appreciated...more or less.

Here's the latest developments at Heep's Place:







The way up to the soon-to-be-built Tavern on the Rock:



An overview of the piece:



As always, comments, critiques, & envelopes filled with small, unmarked bills would be GREATLY appreciated.

This is SO great! I invite everyone to check the pics from the BEGINNING of the thread... the early WiP. It is SO hard to believe that this was a bunch of blue and pink foam boards! All the pieces blend so well with each other!

I can't wait until we could see the place CRAWLING with goblins! Way to go Deaf!

Thanks, Mord...I'm glad you like it so far.
The black spot off to the left will have Heep's Tavern, a ramshackle, cobbled together structure or structures. The black spot off to the right may have Felstiff's Observatory.

The Illustrious Guru of All Things Mushroom, Temerity O'Leery, & assistant, Obnoxious Buzz, have discovered a new species of Sentient Mushroom, Oscarius Mysillium. The gregarious nature of the Oscarius was noted when recording the image of one a group formed around the initial subject...the late Obnoxious Buss discovered their food preferences (providing his Master the opportunity for a quick escape).

And the Evidence:





Further study should provide the Gentle Reader with photos of The Beasties coloration.
Comments & critiques ar once more solicited...more or less.

Those are some creepy rocks mushrooms... HA! Do you make the teeth with toothpicks?

Wow! Very impressive work. You are great!

Very nice. The bead eyes really make the sculpts. It gives a little uniformity and a focal point.

What tools do you use for sculpting? What materials do you sculpt with?

Thanks Guys...your kind comments are appreciated.

I got a set of GF9 sculpting tools from a friend/patron awhile ago...I'm slowly figuring out what to do with them. For the basic shape I use plumber's epoxy (similar to Milliput), then I do the face & stem with G.S....the teeth are toothpicks, Mord. Somewhere in all the posts there's a step by step on making the faces/mushrooms...finding it might be quite a search though.

This is the first of several islets that will form a Swamp Town. Another name I'm sure will replace it, but right now I think of it as Oozy Suzy's Place.

Here's an overview:



The front door with Suzy Herself:





Around back:



The Folks up on top:







As always, your thoughts on the Beasty are most welcome...mostly.

Updates! YEAH! Uhhh... what is 'Suzy'? She looks great... but creepy!

Thanks Mord! I'm not 100% sure what Suzy is; sort of a slug centaur. I suppose. Her Boy Friend is even more creepy.

AND the latest addition to the Spooky Woods...
The Bad Acid Rock:

From a (safe) distance:



Up close & whatever:







As ever, your comments & critiques are MOST WELCOME.

Ahhh... no creepy DeafNala table could be complete without a tribute to The Great Eye! Excellent use of colors... very trippy!

Thanks, Amigo! This one can probably be racked up to my misspent youth or some other part of my misspent life.

Your work is stellar and amazing.

Thanks, Amigo...glad you like it. The Project is proving to be a LOT OF FUN...not knowing precisely where it's going adds to the excitement, at least for moi.

It's good to see you back posting; you have been missed.

As I slowly work on Heep's Place, I did a couple of denizens:

When did you get so tall, Greta?:



No more for you, Snorri!:



& a couple more shots:







Your kind comments & critiques are, as always, appreciated.
