Artwork boys! What were you thinking?

I know we have some talented artists this forum and I'm very interested in seeing some of your artwork. Please post some pictures of your artwork.

I like to paint ceramics. I don't cast my own greenware because I don't have the money for a kiln, nor do I have the place to put one. So I just buy the fired greenware at a local hobby shop supplier and paint away. My favorite subjects are mideival wizards and dragons.

Grand Guardian Dragon (8 hours)

Dragon in Flight (6 hours)

Grand Wizard (15 hours, I re-painted it twice)


Grand Wizard with Spellbook (20 hours alltogether, stone table took 5 hours)


Fall Wizard (7 hours) The stars in the robe were a pain. I want to glue something into the opening in the staff, but I don't know what.


Faery and Castle, framed (12 hours)

I'm disappointed, I can't paint.

A small Quarts* crystal would look nice. You've got a good eye for colour.

It was working splendidly. "Quarts" was spelled correctly.

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea,
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight for it two say,
Weather eye and wring oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long,
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.

To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should bee proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaw's are knot aloud.

Eye have run this poem threw it
Your sure reel glad two no,
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.
