The blurb for the Pit and the Pendulum says "Something Terrifying" and in my own world I am constantly beset by vicious attack furniture. As I quietly go about (ok noisily go about as I seem incapable of doing anything quietly) my daily business I run in constant danger of being impaled or bludgeon by seemingly innocent tables, chairs, door knobs, walls, bookcases, cabinets...the list of horrors goes on for ever. You are not paranoid if the furniture is really out to get me...I swear it's got nothing to do with my own gross motor skills or level of distraction.
I am pretty sure that this is a Reaper Bones Mimic in 28mm. It has a distinct Harry Potter or Muppet feel and was a lot of fun to paint. It's also the first time I've ever painted a tongue on a mini. Assuming that this meets the Terrifying criteria enough this nets me another 5 points for the mini and 20 for the Chamber.
*knock, knock*
"Ahhh, come in Victim #7, errmm, Peter."
Oh, yes, the mimic. I definitely think that counts as terrifying.
25 points it is.

Love a good Mimic model! My adventurers dont, but I do :D
ReplyDeleteGreat work here
Thanks Kyle. Ain’t nobody happy unless the GM is happy!
DeleteThanks Tamsin. I was hoping to count this against the Pit and the Pendulum room as I all ready have a trap submission, based on the level of terror furniture gives me.
ReplyDelete*edited comment to indicate that it is terrifying, not a trap!
DeleteYikes, pity the poor adventurer whole fails his DEX check opening this up hoping for loot!
ReplyDeleteThat’s my life, failed DEX rolls. Thanks Jamie.
Delete... I run in constant danger of being impaled or bludgeon by seemingly innocent tables, chairs, door knobs, walls, bookcases, cabinets...
ReplyDeleteMe too... I've worn the corners off both elbows.
Here’s Codsticker. I’ve also been banned from the house when my wife makes cabbage rolls due to my knife skills and the resulting self inflicted injuries.
DeleteI remember that. You almost lost a finger!
DeleteGreat work on the Mimic, Peter! I may have to borrow that from you sometime for a game idea I have...
Almost lost a finger is slight exaggeration, but yeah. The mimic is on call if I can find him when he need him.
DeleteSplendid looking piece of psychopathic furniture! Very Terry Pratchett!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain, I’m sure it’s out to get me.
DeleteI have a similar furniture related problem, but for me they always seem to target my toes. I'll just be walking along when a seemingly inanimate object lunges forward and stubs itself on my toe!
ReplyDeleteNice mimic.
Cheers Stuart. Bedposts, it’s always the bedposts.
DeleteOm nom nom.
