It is a great and fantastical place I have found it very useful and im sure many other people will so if you live nearby give it a visit you will be amazed
alice in wonderland mummified!
So took a break from wizard of oz because im sick of looking at it for now and started on my alice in wonderland mummified edition
Im starting with alice I had a 1/4 size anatomical skeleton lying around (as you do haha) so it is going to be used as a base for my mummified alice so far I have a picture of one of her legs with a boot on (the other is going to be without a boot as mummys clothes don't aways come as one) heres some picture of the first leg just made with original sculpey around the leg of the anatomical skeleton
I also brought a nice wig to go on alice here it is on the skull which is still a work in progress
heres a picture it is a nice blonde curley hair wig
the hands and arms are currently in the oven baking so I will post them when they are out and cooled down. once finished she will be placed in a big wooden box that will be decorated on the outside and is padded on the inside
The next character I will be making is the Cheshire cat which I have got the fur for im making the eyes out of clay then painting them and covering them with a layer of epoxy resin to give them a shine. I also have a nice display cabinet to put him in. after he is finished I will be making the rabbit i have yet to find something to display him in but im sure i will find something.
that's about it for now i will update with pictures of alices arms and head when baked.

Heres the front of the box so far
im going to have little portraits of all the characters in the box except Dorothy who you will be able to see through the frame
wizard of oz
Ive put Abraham to the side for now so I can work on some wizard of oz characters ive decided im making Dorothy, the scarecrow, the tin man, the lion and the wizard of oz so far ive made....
dorothys red slippers
the wizard of oz head he is having a massive head but will be short like a munchkin
And the tin mans head think this will be the hardest on to do as in his body as it will all need to be made of clay not sure how to make his joints yet but heres the head anyway
For the tin man, scarecrow and lion im going to be keeping main features of them relating to the movie from 1939 the wizard and Dorothy will look different

Aether-Crystal Vaporiser mark 1
Here is my Aether-crystal vaporizer mark 1 I was abandoned in a scrap yard with monsters and creatures around me, I found a quite safe place after gathering various parts from machines and such and started constructing my weapon there was an abundance of spare parts around me that I had collected it was hard work to build lots of mistakes and mishaps but I finally came up with The Aether-Crystal Vaporizer. It works by taking the natural power of the blue glowing crystals and a small amount of Aether from inside the gun and combining it together to create a surge of crystalised energy to come out from the disperser end of the gun vaporizing the target.
