Little Bird 

Part 1: It wasn’t just the undead that were kept in The Arena. Sometimes unfortunate and unwanted humans made their way to the lower labyrinths too. For all their gladitorial business, it’s funny how no one talked about how they kept their zombie fighters ‘alive’ and it was common knowledge that the zombies performed best when fed human flesh. 

Part 2: The last time Wren saw his older brother Ellya they were hurling hurtful words to each other. It has been two years since then and Wren couldn’t even remember exactly what it was they were arguing about but it made Ellya storm off the night the zombie outbreak hit their town. Wren escaped the worst of the carnage but Ellya was missing ever since. Just as he was about to give up searching, Wren caught word of The Monkey-one of The Arena’s favourite undead slave fighters. The creature was missing its tongue but people say when it cried it seemed to howl the word ‘Wren’. 

Part 3: Wren made it just in time to see them haul The Monkey out onto The Arena. Its skin had completely blackened, all its limbs rotted and half its skull was missing. But it was jerking and snapping incessantly like a wild animal in its chains. It was torture seeing Ellya like that. Somebody in the crowd was saying too bad that it’ll be The Monkey’s last day on The Arena because it’s up against Pretty Boy and that thing apparently killed anything in its way. Time was running out and Wren had to act fast.

Sculpt: Mihael Dollmaker: Leekeworld Faceup: http://ruggedrealism.wordpress.com So I have this Leekeworld Mihael head that I’ve kept for ages. I had it up for sale before but nobody wanted it so I’ve just given it a new faceup today. Previously he looked mean and haughty, thought I’d try and give him a bit of a submissive look this time. I like my subs… I wish I had a more realistic wig, something with a neatly combed side part like boys used to wear back in the Victorian era.

the Mechanic

If Ma wasn’t so sick and the money constantly drained for her medical bills, Kitson would have loved to finish high school and maybe go on an apprenticeship to become a mechanic. He was better with machines than with people. With machines, they either work or they don’t, and if they don’t work you can always fix them or if they are beyond repair, salvage what you can and the rest heads out to the tip. It was simple.

With people, there’s just no telling how deep something is broken or where to even begin to repair.

Oops! As always I am lax at updating this blog. I’ve been working on a few faceup commissions lately. I am trying to finish everything before Winter sets in Australia and I will not be able to paint. Sculpt: Rui Sculptor: Rosen Garden Faceup by: http://ruggedrealism.wordpress.com
