Hello all!

Every year I do a large scale project for Adepticon, a convention in early April in Chicago IL. This year I did two! This is the Fantasy display. If you are interested in any of the WIP images, I have them all on Facebook my Blog , and a blog here on Dakka.

The display is based on a large. real wooden throne. I bought the throne and skeleton from a local "antique" store. It is about 6.5 feet tall from floor to dragon wings.

The theme of the army is a nightmare fairy tale. Something a child in the Warhammer world might dream is coming to his town to attack. The Worm King is a legend of a twisted king who would attack with his dragons and "knights" in the middle of the night and take children away in sacks and on their carts to be eaten for dinner by his pet dragons. Luckily for the children of Bretonnia, it is simply a tale told by parents when their kids are mean. Or is it?

Thanks for looking!

That's pretty epic!

**RiTides**

Breathtaking work, GMM! I have been following your building the chair but hadn't seen much of the army. It does justice to the awesome display

I absolutely cannot wait to see this in person at AdeptiCon!

**ScootyPuffJunior**

It would be worth a trip to AdeptiCon just to see that in person.

Truly fantastic work.

**eledamris**

I thought I was good at display bases. You have made me rethink this.

**MeanGreenStompa**

Outstanding.

Would love to see a breakdown of the army list to go with the pictures and work out what goes with what.

**Gingalain**

Wow.......

Are those the two models on the top of the throne? And here I was thinking they were "just" ornamentation, would be sweet if they are removable for gaming purposes.

**GMMStudios**

Yes they are magnetized and removable. The chair can go sideways and that big dragon wont come off.

**Cave_Dweller**

Wow! You're on a total pwnage spree!

I think this one will win over the HR Giger egg, its just so epic. Everything about it is amazing.

Those banners really display your artistry, they're miniature works of art in an of themselves.

Are you going to sell these or keep them? Your collection must be world-class at this point. Don't stop doing what you do best!

**Astroman**

Jeez, I didn't think you could top the Emperor's Scythes display. This literally one of the coolest things mIniature related i've ever seen, and certainly the coolest display board i have ever seen. i am truly awed and appreciative of this. Truly inspiring.

**Rezyn**

By far the coolest looking display I have ever seen(pretty sure I said the same thing when I saw your last years fantasy display). A true piece of art. I was literally in awe the entire time scrolling through the pics.

I always really enjoy your work. Excellent job man.

**gigasnail**

absolutely gorgeous.

**Bottle**

This is one of the coolest things I have ever seen for warhammer. I love it all. Your minature painting style is very refreshing too. Love the turquoise and reds, and I love the bold strokes on the flagstones.

**RobZie**

Best use of grandma's corpse I have ever seen in a miniature.

Seriously though you have taken it to the next level with this thing, you should be proud.

**Trondheim**

Oh dear.... This was by far the most impresive display/ army I have ever seen! Well done sir, well done

**Maxörhead666**

God-damnit, another of these beautiful things?!

**Maelstrom808**

Heh, as far as anything related to gaming, the unveiling of your Adepticon army (or armies in this case) is hands down my favorite time of year. Always stunning, and each year is better than the last.

**Ignatius**

This is hands down the most impressive thing I have ever seen in this hobby.

It's really an inspiration. Thank you for showing us what's possible.

**Laruastrum**

Godamnit... your 'nursery rhyme' has made me take a very different view on certain parts of my childhood...
damn you.

Seriously though, it's pretty awesome. Love the way the skeleton sits astride the display. Once again a success.

**thenoobbomb**

Mother of god....

Wow!

**KingCracker**

This piece easily is in the top list of the most impressive builds I've ever seen. Very very well done

**Requiem**

Took a lot of scrolling, but was definitely worth it! amazing

**Lucazi**

I followed your thread with the building of both chairs in one sad garage...your work is awe inspiring, especially the time of completion it was done in. I could only hope to have your fabrication and painting skills one day

**Lucarikx**

Absolutely stunning! I love the skeleton/mountain. The transition is so... natural.

May I ask where the big 'ol Dragon on the top of the display is from?

Lucarikx

**highlord tamburlaine**

I hope you still have some sanity left inside you after putting all that together.

Kudos to you sir.

So much color and activity! Incredibly impressive!

**Sarigar**

This, by far, exudes the most characterful interpretation of the World of Warhammer I have seen in my 25 years enjoying this hobby. Simply mind blowing. Thank you for sharing your clear passion for this hobby.

**badkamer1**

Just how many weeks went into building something so epic?!
