Ok, just came across this bizarre trailer on Youtube of Russian Fantasy Movie produced by Disney. I think it's a real thing, at least according to this Hollywood reporter article: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/disney-russia-local-language-movies-885954 Anyway if you want to see Baba Yaga in her flying mortar, plus a great shot of her hut running, check it out...

http://massivevoodoo.blogspot.com/2017/07/mv-challenge-2017.html?m=1 Peace and blessings, brothers and sisters. The crew at Massive Voodoo have let loose their call for their 2017 Challenge. The crew at Massive Voodoo set out challenges to their viewers in order to push our abilities past our comfort zone. This year they have two (2) Challenges for us! 1. Create a base using water effects. 2. Paint a Disney Infinity character. There are limitations in this challenge - like on the basing Challenge: the goal is to create a base with a water effect, not to focus on a figure. They said we can use a small animal to accent the base, and Reaper has some awesome Familiars we can use. Also, Infinity Challenge is one figure, not multiple, which allows us to focus doing our best on one figure. Full details can be found by clicking on the link. I heard that little voice too: "I cannot win this! Why should I even try?" Well shut the front door little-voice-in-my-head! I know I have much to learn and improve in my own Art, which is why this is a Challenge. We cannot lose: we win just by pushing past our comfort zone and learning more about our beloved hobby. :D I said it before and I will keep repeating it: I believe in you. I see the awesome work you all do, and you believe in me too. That love helps me believe in myself and makes me want to work harder to push past my own limits. Plus we get to paint a character from the Disney franchise - which includes Marvel and Star Wars! I didn't even consider painting these as well as playing with them! ( Don't judge too harshly. Elsa kicks butt.) For a full list of characters available, check 'em out here: http://www.portalcharacters.com/disney-infinity/figures.asp You can find them individually and inexpensively on eBay. Now, if you will excuse me: I have some Reaper Familiars to peruse. :D May your efforts be rewarded and blessed!

My wife has said she would like to get into miniature painting, but her tastes are neither Fantasy or Sci-Fi. She is really into Disney characters. Does anyone have a suggestion as to where to find Disney miniatures that we can paint? A few searches for "Disney Pewter Miniatures" and variations of it, lead to figures in the $50 to $150 price range.... OUCH... While links aren't allowed in the posts, please message me with them, as my Goggle Fu is rather lacking... Thanks!

I have a copy of the Disney movie "Atlantis: The Lost Empire." It's not a very good movie. But I love the LOOK of the film -- the steampunk submarine, the strange, alien yet shamanistic lines of the lost city and its crystal-based technology and so forth. Still have all the little die-cast fish vehicles that came out around the time the movie was released. http://floobynooby.blogspot.com/2011/10/disneys-atlantis-concept-art.html They hired Mike Mignola ("Hellboy" creator) to do the concept art. Amazingly, his style and feel very much comes through in the finished film. I'm glad; I'm a Mignola fan from way back, including his non-Hellboy stuff; he did a four issue "Fafhrd and Gray Mouser" series that's still the best graphic adaptation of the stories ever done, far as I know. LOVE me some concept art.
