Hi guys,

I was in the mood of thanking Ed Greenwood this week-end. Since i've read the new Ed Greenwood Present last week, i fell in love again.

I made this diorama in honor of Ed and his writings. The influence of this man in my hobby life is unmeasurable.

Thanks Ed.

Sweet!

"These things also I have observed: that knowledge of our world is
to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."

Some nice scenery, there...

Though I gotta say... Between being raised by a model railroad buff, and being into miniature wargames -- I'm not used to seeing scenery like that without there being Space Marines, warjacks, or trains on it!

why is being a wizard like being a drow? both are likely to find a dagger in the back from a rival or one looking to further his own goals, fame and power

Impressive stuff, Patrakis. You've really got me thinking that I would like to try my own hand at some dioramas.

One day.

Hi guyz,

Thanks for the nice comments. I appreciate it. This kind of setup has given an all new twist on my in game encounters. I think my players appreciate it also.

sfdragon, the tower is made by a company called Pegasus Hobbies.

Looks great! I always loved how El's tower was small and cozy. NOT what you would expect from someone with that kind of power.

Hmmm. Is this a local company, Patrakis? Do you know if they can ship their products world-wide?

Another impressive work. I wish I had the patience and skill to make such things myself...
