Your emotions are flattering me dear friend Master Imisel. Just confirm your positive attitude towards this work. lol

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

I really must get round to buying some of the latest MS releases - I'm way behind (been distracted by some boring "real life" issues recently). Initially I wasn't too sure about Saruman and his feathered friends (for the same "oh-no-not-another-Saruman" reasons), but from your enthusiasm, Master Tree, it sounds as if I should get him after all.

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Yes, Master Ent... I have the same impression with Saruman and Crebains when I recieved it last week. Inicially, when I saw the photo of it, I though: "What the hell? Only two crebains?". But now that I have it in my hands, I have to agree that have quality is much better than have quantity. The crebain in Saruman's shoulder is so delicate! A really challenge for The Man -  CT is putting his standards higher and higher each time.

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Huoommm ... I remember your thoughts, Master Imisel, er, that came close to disappointment, right? ... huûoomm ... that's why I never comment about figures (and poor pics) before I can hold them (the figures) in my hands ... rhuoommm hom? ... hom ... the problem with photography still is that it's 2-dimensional ... huuuom ... anyway, I'm glad that you also like that crebain on the shoulder ... he's the boss, telling what the flock witnessed .... rhuoommm ... so you have to reduce that flock to its most important aspect ... huom ... besides, a flock of flying crebains isn't easy to cast, as then they're in the air and wouldn't have any contact with the figure at all ... huomm ... so you have to get them in the very moment when they're resting to report ... huom ... not all of them at the same time, of course, as that might even set Saruman's mind at risk .... rhuoommmm ....
if you know what this old Ent tries to tell you ... huoommm ... tidommm ...hommm

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

I received the saruman too (for once it arrived on time) and I was stunned by the detail of those tiny crebain (especially the one meant to be glued on the shoulder) so small and yet so detailed!!

this is a jeweler craftsmanship, not sculpture at this level of precision and smallness!!

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

It raises interesting possibilities, I already had plans for this before the competition was announced which might complicate things. However I guess as long as I don't break rule 2 , I should be able to use it as planned incorporating rules 5 & 8smile (reminds me a bit of the four hobbits tearing up the rules in the 'new' shire big_smile).

You'll have to wait until I've woken up. What you see before you is an empty shell awaiting the return of its wits and senses from wherever I left them last night.

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Hi again Barli !
Look what I found behind a big oak ? 6 pounds of ceps !
I did not see any bar tender wit by the way.

Don't worry, I 'll sit there and drink some ale until your  brain allows you to cook these mushrooms & the good sunday meal I expect.tongue

Mushrooms and bartender's wits are pretty much the same, Master Milo.

Re: THE TAPROOM 2

Very very sad day today here in Galicia.... Burned one of the greatest natural forest reserves in river Eume ("Las Fragas del Eume") - It is the biggest coastal wood in Europe. The worst is that the fire was provoked:

My heart is broken today.

I share your pity Imisel. My house is surrounded my woods and my whole region is covered by forests (Ardennes belges).
