Corpse Flower (In the style of Black Magic Craft)

[dossen]

Inspired by this Video by Black Magic Craft and Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes, I'm in the process of building a nice big Corpse Flower (not quite as big as Jeremys though).

I started with a ball of polystyrene and a 50 mm disc of 10 mm MDF (same as in my Elder Brain project). This time roughly beveled with a saw and topped with lots of sand.
The polystyrene has been shrinked a bit with a hot air gun because it was a bit bigger than I wanted.



The roots/tentacles are lengths of insulated copper wire (the kind I used (stripped) for my HeroQuest furniture) hotglued in.

Black-bombed and glued to the base (actually not quite black - it's black, dark green and some PVA mixed together):


Then I harvested from a pair of IKEA flowers - also some basing stuff:



Attach with hot glue:


Green spray:


Another green lightly sprayed over:


And then some washes and brown on the base:


Then paper flowers:


Painted with cheap, diluted, yellow paint:


Blending some orange and ending with red:


An old broken skeleton for decoration:


Mounting the skeleton:


And flowers:


Now I need to add skulls and stuff.

Gross! I cast twinned Fireball and run home

And to finish it of, I did a few skulls and assorted skeleton parts:


They go into the mass of the flower, where I could find room:


And the result, with a few skeletons I'm working on - to show the scale of it:


I tried for a bit smaller than Black Magic Craft , but even so it ended up being one of my largest minis (of those supposed to be size "large" anyway - still a bit smaller than my huge red dragon I think... Actually they are about the same size, so quite a beast... But I'm happy with it.

Not wanting to be a rule lawyer but... you cannot twin a fireball in 5e ! because the spell is AOE and do not target one creature as the twinned metamagic requires.

all that said, great corpse flower, really nice details put into this !
