Hi all,
I´ve finally found out how to post pics and wanted to share my diorama with you. I built and painted it a year ago, using Reaper miniatures. The tree is from GW, for I think they are the most bizarre ones and have a "horror-look" to them.

Sharp work. The base itself is excellent (looks like Red isn't the only one that the Wolf has been interested in). The tree is wicked, did you make that? I don't recognize it from anything. The mushroom reminds me of old (old) GW dioramas. Nice work all around.



Reposted your pics, they didn't display

Thank you very much! I tried this, but the pics wouldn´t show, so I relied on the links...they were better than nothing

The tree is from Games Workshop´s forest set.

I made the base with a lot of filler. It has a rough surface that looks like mud when it has dried out.

The mushroom is supposed to be a small dot of colour on an otherwise very dark ground.

Thanks for your nice comments

That's cool. Nicely painted and cool minis. The base is maybe a bit open and empty though. Could do with some static grass IMO.

I think static grass would make it too colourfull. It is supposed to look rather menacing and dark.

I like the look of the diorama. I'm not too sold on the wolf or red miniatures, however. Your painting and the scene as a whole is great. I'm just not sure those are some of Reaper's better miniatures. Really nice base work as well. The old school GW diorama mushroom is a nice touch.

This is of course a question of taste, but I actually love the miniatures, because I think they are rather "mature" looking, but still have a dark humorous/cute look to them.

Thanks for the compliments on the base as well.
