Hi elfs and thieves!!

I asked myself if some of the Tolkien's fans from here...have seen the Hobbit yet?!

If I have time, will go the next week! Maybe the film inspires me to finish the diorama!

I saw it last Friday in 3D and I don't usually do 3D movies! It was a very enjoyable movie - it has some faults, but I enjoyed it nevertheless. I am planning on goign to see it again in a theatre that is showing it at 48 frames per second to see what that is like.

Time ago I see "Alice in Wonderland". The movie I like me, 3D not!

So I will visit a "classic" cinema to be able to see her.

I wait to enjoy equally or more than the Lord of the rings!

Outstanding Polux ,keep it coming. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for the next update! This is like waiting for the next Lord of the Ring movie when they first came to the big screen!

HI to All again, some new pics.

A test of the climbing herbs, I don't like 'something'.... probably that I meet very artificial compared others ...?

I have started to paint the figure too!

Thanks for looking Mates!

Looks fine to me. Maybe it just needs pressing onto the wall more. It looks like an Ivy, which actually grow on the wall. Maybe that is was is bothering you.

just looks to stiff,see if you can get it to loosen up maybe?vines tend to go all over the place but the main stem keeps to the deepest grooves in the brick work

I think the same as mobear, Polux. The main stem of Ivy applies itself closely to the wall where it sticks itself with tough fibres. It prefers to follow features such as brickwork pointing, cracks or the corners between surfaces. The side shoots are more free and probe outwards from the main stem towards the light and other parts of the brickwork. As with anything, getting a convincing effect is easier when you closely observe how the real thing behaves.

Nice diorama. :thumbsup:

I agree with ole and Bob.... the ivy may look better if it were positioned to look more "relaxed" and clinging closer to the wall ...

its all coming along fine though polux ... keep at it my friend.

and Bob .... this is a dragon .... definitely NOT a dinosaur !!! heh heh
