Wow.  Amazing. As always... Some thoughts...

Love the big dragon on the top of the tower!

And the winged monkeys :) :love:

The "ground" looks amazing too.

And those are REALLY creepy flowers! Worse than the kid eating originals! :0

Ghosts! Ghosts everywhere!

I like your "pirate ghost from the blinky winky advent" - he looks really great like that.

The wabbit with all the bones.. eek.

And tonguello's mermaid! ;D  (ah, I was gonna ask if you made a clone.. but I see it's really her!)

Did I mention I really like the winged monkeys? :love:

The troll with the white apron... :)

And the smoke looks amazing!

Interesting band!

And the alien drinking from the tube - I always wondered what were those thingamajigs for!

The blue transparent guy in the old helmet looks great too. Really interesting.

And who IS the blue man with the elvis-do? Very... colorful. (btw, that woman behind him is carrying a LOT of fruit!)

The rabbit "doc" = :0

I like the interiors too (something that is ALWAYS a struggle for me). The skeleton drinking  :lol:

And the old uk cop in the throne!

The tower landing platform for the witch is a great idea :)

This one is a northern cousin, tho the family resemblance is strong  :lol:


My favorites are the winged monkeys and "Igor" I LOVE HIM!!!  :love:

Yes, the alien mermaid is a clone of a Tonguello Special Custom® done as a tribute. I figured she was on her way somewhere right? So why not the Wizard's party? I just thought I would sneak her in there and see if anyone noticed.
I think that blue man with the orange Elvis hair may be King of the Oompa Loompas.
The chair under the stairs with the owl, wand and book are a reference to the same thing as the Owlcote.  ;)

Thanks for the comments everyone!

Superb dio, Tim!  :clap:  :clap:
And all those little subscenes and details, I adore it  :)9

Some favourite stuff & details:
the carnivor-plants (awesome!)
the customized ghost-pirate accompanied by the also transparent sculpt-dragon
the superbig tree (I´ve never seen such a big tree before, is the trunk made from parts from one of the treehouses??)
the operating room
the skeleton/bone-cave with the little white rabbit; a nice wink to MP  ;)
the broom-barrel in the tower
etc...

that blue man with the orange Elvis hair

Could he be a custom with the head from a blue bust that came with the Princes-castle Treasure Room?



Btw, I´m not  sure you know Tim, but you yourself are to be seen in your dio, and in your human shape I mean...  ;)
Let´s make this a contest. Who can spot Tim?  ;D
(hint: one has to very closely look at one of the diorama´s pics on Flickr)



Resistance is futile, you will be boarded!

Hadoque -
The super big tree uses the trunk from the current tree house set. It does make a really big tree quite nicely, much bigger than the old oaks or the tall fir tree. Yes the blue man uses the head from the treasure room with a matching torso and arms. You don't really see the hands because they are flesh colored so I sort of hid them. I would prefer matching arms and hands but the only way to do that is the oldest style arms without the turning wrists and I don't have the matching color in one of those.
The customized ghost pirate uses the clear arms from the blue and clear android Fi?ure.

Now I have to go look at reflective surfaces and find myself :D
