gnome guard Crowdsourced Gnomes: two times

[R2ED]

Funny that this was a Kickstarter project that was crowd sourced and I also used crowd sourcing to gather some ideas on a basing idea. Hoorah!

 

@Corsairmade a comment I should have the gnome with clippers cutting off one of the other gnomes' hats.  I wish i would have thought of that before I finished painting and glued them down.  However, I did realize I could make their tools look more in use.  I added turf to their tools and make it look like this is a moment in action, not just a pose.  I think it's a significant improvement. 

 

Here's the gnomes.

I love it. Such beautifully executed whimsy. 

[Rigel]

Delightful composition--and spectacular shading on those noses and fingers!

[Glitterwolf]

Great job!

Love this scene!

[Corsair]

That is a great little scene! Bring it to Reapercon!

[Chaoswolf]

That's fantastic!

 

@Corsair was right, the grass on the tools is a nice touch.

Nicely done! Love the iconic colors on them. Basing is fantastic as well.

Great getting this much feedback on it. I am loving seeing the comments.

I can almost hear the weird little song they're singing...

 

I agree, this is super-cool. You've done a good job in your effort to capture a freeze frame of their lives. I'm really liking the blending on the skin, as well as the highlights on the beards.

I love the whimsy of this - especially the bits added to the tools making it look 'in motion'

[Magic Lantern]

Adorable -I want to boop their perfectly painted noses!

I'm happy to say this one won the monthly contest at my FLGS for February.   Woohooooo!
