Lead Painter's League 2018 - Round 5 - Upside Down

This LPL entry was inspired by the Netflix series 'Stranger Things' (which I enjoyed very much).

 
The Hazmat troopers are Copplestone Castings, the monster of course is the epic Demogorgon originally made by Grenadier (now Mirlton).

    Awesome work Dr Mathias! You have a very neat, crisp painting style that I envy.

      Thanks! Lost of practice. I have to admit I often use a visor now too- my eyes are getting old! It makes it easier, that's for sure.

    Tremendous!

    I feel like I have seen a miniature of the demogorgon from the show too, so maybe that (and some demodogs) might be a future expansion of this scene.

      Thanks! I think Crooked Dice make some plant creatures with a head similar to the TV version. Let me know if you see anything else :)

      Some quick googling suggests that Nexus made a set of figures, but their website appears to be defunct at the moment. I feel like I saw a few more too... if I see any, I will let you know!
