VIGNETTE TITLE...SUGAR; GOTHIC PUNK FIGURE...REAPER (SUGAR # 50176) NOTE...With Halloween just a month away; I wanted to do this figure in a hardrock gothic punk style motif as she visits an old grave yard that is the home of a giant spider (who dresses in the same color motif as does Sugar). I tried to keep the vignette simple so as to accent the matching color scheme between Sugar & Spider. I hope you like this early Halloween posting.

VIGNETTES...As an avid collector and painter of miniature figures...I work hard at trying to come up with cute vignettes...sometimes requiring the conjunction of two miniatures from different companies...I try to build pieces that are like a snapshot (telling a story)...Vignettes are my love and passion...BUT! AVID COLLECTOR...I am also an avid collector and painter of two series of miniature lines...(Amazon Female Warriors) and (Female Pirate Figures)...both of which I am working on as private collections in simple non-vignette pieces. After many long months, I have started working on my Amazon Female Warriors...this posting is the 1st such figure in my (private army)...I have just ordered 10 varied amazon female figures from varied companies and look forward to their arrival in a couple of weeks. I will post them as I finish each one...sorry to say that I will/can not post a number of them due to the fact that they are topless with exposed breasts and I do not want to cover them up (just for posting) because they look fantastic as they are cast. 1ST FIGURE...Reaper, Lorna The Huntress # 02476.

This is the scribe booth (letter & message writer)...this is the last booth in my open air farmers market & renaissance fair table top board for my shire/town. It has been a long month of steady daily work...but they are all done. The next step in this project will be additional interior details to some of the booths...varied signs of an appropriate nature for varied booths...standards & pennants for most of the booths. Once that is done; I am taking a rest from this project before I start the work on the actual base that all these booths will be attached to. I hope that all the members who have followed me through this project...from the suggested idea & concept from Daesc Zacal to this last booth posting and have enjoyed some of my endeavors. Thank you for all your ideas & suggestions.

This is a giant creature that is a common encounter for the adventure group. It is encountered in caves, caverns and dungeons...but can also be encountered outdoors around the entrance to same caves, caverns & dungeons. I gave it a "high gloss" finish to represent the luminescent factor (it appears (in game play) luminescent in the darkness of caves, caverns and dungeons. It is a neat enemy foe for my adventure group(s).

This was a commission painting I did for a friend. He wanted a modern " hot " looking witch that was still in the fantasy theme. I had fun and really enjoyed painting this miniature. I hope the viewers like it.
