News from the workbench

The Swallows are done!
This is a big update from the workbench. Exciting news. The Swallows are finally done. They come in 4 poses. Below are pictures of 3 of the final poses. The final tricky part was figuring out what a bird saddle looks like. Most other fantasy lines just have their riders surfing on top of their birds or riding bareback. Gnomes are a more practical folk.

 Next, I also finished up the first 3 vignettes for our Medieval Marginalia project. You can see them, below, paired with their original context. I am super excited to see what this next project leads to. Please take our SURVEY to let us know which other marginalia you'd like to see come out of our project.

Here they all are tucked away in little boxes ready to ship to the UK for molding and casting. You can see more pics of the the Skele-Gnomes here.

It wouldn't be news from the workbench if it didn't show a new miniature in progress! Below is the fabled Stollenwurm or Tatzelwurm. A creature of Swiss folklore that had the front end of a cat, and the body of a snake!
