Hi

Here's another little scene based on one of the stories in "The Tales of Beedle the Bard".

In this tale, a kind wizard uses his magic to help his muggle neighbours. Wanting to keep his true abilities secret, he pretends that a magical cooking pot is the source of the cures he produces. After his death, he leaves the pot to his son hoping that he will continue to use his magic to benefit others. Unfortunately his son has other ideas and, seeing the muggle as beneath him, he rudely turns them away. As punishment, the pot spouts a brass foot and begins hopping around noisily after the son and giving him a taste of the neighbours problems (for example breaking out in warts, constantly spewing out rancid milk or making the sound of retching or a crying baby).

My small build is loosely inspired by this tale and shows the young wizard returning to his kitchen after turning away an old man seeking help to stop slugs destroying his family's meagre vegetable plot...

This was just a quick build to keep me going while waiting for the new Harry Potter sets. At first I struggled with what to have coming out of the pot... in the actual tale the pot produces liquids, smells and sounds but the story does mention slugs so that's what I eventually settled on.

Anyway, thanks for looking - comments are always welcome!!
