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

Thanks, Narcissus...glad you like them.
I got a set of sculpting tools through an erstwhile friend/patron. The set was from GF9. It was supposed to be a three piece deal, but they were out of the three piece set; SO, at no additional cost, they sent me the twelve piece set...pretty nice of them I'd say. That aside these are the two tools I use most often:



Here's a link to the GF9 tools:

At least they sent nice tools to a guy that can actually use them... not a chum like me! HA!

Love the evil/cute mushroom invasion!

Thanks for the kind words, Mord.
When I got the tools & my first batch of Green & Brown Stuff, I hadn't the foggiest idea of how to use it all. My big sculpting works where putting Ghostly Faces on some of my Mordheim buildings & the Mushrooms for my Goblins with Plumber's Epoxy. It's only over the last year or so that I started doing more with the G.S...still haven't tried the B.S. .
It's really a lot of fun working with it. Once you get by the intimidation factor, it's not all that difficult to turn out some interesting things...it IS addictive though.

For not having the foggiest idea... you do AWESOME! Ha!

Having gotten inspired to do a bit more with my Gigunda Mushrooms, The Three Sisters, by floedebolle's new Mushroom thread. I started some upgrades. You can checkout the source of this madness here:

This is the first of the Sisters:







With the long view of the Girl:





As always your comments, kind or not, are MOST WELCOME...mostly.

SO here's where The Upgrade stand thus far...there will be more thingies to add I'm sure. All three of The Three Sisters (the Three Sisters will probably be a reference to the Three Reaper Hags that will be inhabiting the place shortly):

The Second Sister:









The Third Sister:













The Group:





AND a size comparison photo...actually three so I can show off the mini as well.







As always your kind commentary would be appreciated...kind of.

Very nice! I really want to see all of the pieces together. I'm sure the hags will be nice.

Thanks, Narcissus!
I've started making Islets similar to Crazy Mary's Cay. These Mushrooms will have a Cay of their own. As I complete the pieces I'll start doing progressively larger photos of the swamp.
These are the Hags I'll be using:

The Mushrooms have now been mounted on their very own islet awaiting the Sisters arrival...their former Neighbors wished them "Godspeed & good riddance." At any rate, here are some photos:

An Over View:





AND a Tour of the Perimeter, from the Front Door going counter clockwise:








I'll get up some photos of the Islet Group when I get the Camera to cooperate. Until then comments & whatever would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.

Since Photo Bucket has been uncooperative, I've set up a Google Albums Thingy. Next stage in the experiment is stealing my own photos, AND Voila:

An Overview of The Isles:













Now then, let me know if you can see these & give me you comments if you can...if you can't see them, but you have a vivid imagination, you may also comment.

The place looks bright indeed... the hags will look even more terrifying. Great job man!

Thanks, Mord...glad you like them. You're indirectly responsible for the posting of the Group Shot photos...it was a "what would Edwin do?" inspiration that led to the Google album approach, while Photo Bucket is figuring out the sign in problem.

What a colorful but spooky little town. Your talents are amazing.

Thanks for the kind words, Da Bank.
The Project is really coming together with lots of things falling in place. This occurring at the close of Baseball Season is a plus.

AND I'll be using this mini for Crazy Mary:



Lovely, ain't she?

Wow! That´s a sweet model! Conversion?

Cool model - any progress on her yet?

Laney

I think it's a pretty cool mini myself. It's Reaper's Bab Yaga (60077); she's just about perfect for Crazy Mary. I finished painting the Old Girl & took some photos. I'll screw around with the Google Thingy tomorrow & post the photos then...the usual mediocre type photos.

mediocre of not... WE DEMAND PICS!!!

I was going to wait until Monday, but what the heck. Here's Crazy Mary Herself:

Around Town:



On Mary's Cay:





As always your comments, kind or otherwise, are MOST welcome...mostly.

Wicked lady! I like her!
And what's terrain piece in the back of the first pic? Looks interesting!

HAHAHZ! She looks... crazy! I would expect her to start throwing cats any second now...



How you do that blending (1st pic... background) so well? Looks airbrushed.

Love the witch!~

Thanks for the kind words, Guys. I haven't been able to sign on either here or on my Photo Bucket for awhile. Now the problem seems to have resolved itself; SO you're stuck with me again.

Some small (about Hobbit sized) progress: I finished the Piranha Club & an Unknown Mini of Dubious Culinary Tastes. The Four of them share the distinction of being Four A Minis supplied to moi by that FINE FELLOW, Mason.

SO without further delay, HERE THEY ARE:

Zooming in on The Piranha Club:




Some individual shots:





The Mysterious Stranger:



There, now that wasn't so bad...mostly. As always, your commentary would be appreciated.

Sweet!
Those piranha dudes sure are creepy! Especially on the first pic of the "individuals". Great pic!

Thanks, Gatlag...glad you like them.
I agree that there is something definitely creepy about them. They're silly & disturbing at the same time, which makes them fit in nicely with the rest of my stuff...including moi.
