more parts of the medieval world - this was a steal for 19€ complete with package - the seller had a lot of old playmo and had absolutely no clue what great items he was selling...

Hi

Just out of curiosity how did you photograph the last shot? Is the white paper curved at the back ? you have nice lighting as well, very little shadows or at least they all go in different directions

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

bonniebeth: i see it more like exchanging ideas  :) ...just when i think about what i could make for a zoo project...oh no stop thinking about more worlds...arrrrgh... no serious - it would be fantastic if you find some inspiration for your zoo project  :)9

tonguello: the good thing about moving to the country is : you have more space ! as i rebuild the farm - actually it´s looking a bit like the playmo farm from the 80s  :lol:  we rebuild a big part where all the animals used to live. there is now my studio and working area. as i work for film / media as a special effects artist i sometimes need a bit space and it was no problem to reserve some place for playmo. also my son can hang around and i can have an eye on him later when he is in kindergartentime. in my job i sometimes have to wait 30 or 40 minutes for one take to render out so it´s great to use that time to work on the dioramas
