Now that's something I might be interested in making. I actually just re-read this recently (I wanted to read it again before watching the HPLHS film--- top notch film by the way) and was fascinated by the idea of the artist's visual interpretations of his dream images.

When I don't have a pen, keyboard, woman, pint, bass or PS2 controller in my hand, I have a brush and one of Jes Goodwin's finest clenched in my paws.

I don't have the patience for painting miniatures, but I always admired the work of others; especially when they went the extra step and created detailed panoramas.

I tend to keep extra details to a minumum, I find it crowds the miniature and obscures all your hard paintwork.

Wow, and I thought my Transformers: The Movie poster was tacky.

a six foot tall statue of Cthulhu with a sword in his hand...

I, myself, have often felt that Cthulhu's acceptance into the Swordsman Hall of Fame is long overdue.

Why use a sword when you can manipulate minds?

Why do you always have to ask such tough questions?

How do you suppose Great C gets to those brains? He may manipulate your mind but Cthulhu sure loves his pudding. So I think a sword is perfectly suitable for splicing craniums. Can't split a skull with a moist tentacle now, can you?

Because they're too tough for me to answer.

Great work on the chess set! It is amazing!

Have you considered making molds? I do not think I saw the idea mentioned, but then again, my head is hurting from going through all these new posts (since I have been away)

Secret3 · Post by **Secret3** » Tue Jan 03, 2006 10:56 am

I actually have moulds made. Now that the holidays have past I plan to get back to producing more sets. And now that I have someone to help me with production, I hope to be able to make them faster (and thus less expensive) than before. I'll probably be able to sell them for around $450, and after we've gotten production into full swing they might eventually come down to as low as $300 a set. I have to make them more efficient so that I will have time to work on other things as well. I have a few other ideas in mind that I need to have time to develop.
