[MOC] Redwall: Descent Into The Mushroom Forest

[evancelt]

Broadpaw and Treadfast didn't want to cross the fungi forest, but the alternative was backtracking nearly forty miles. Their kidnapped friends couldn't wait - they would have to push on after the weasels.

When I saw those round pieces in dark orange, dark tan, tan show up on online PAB, I knew it was mushroom forest time  Planning to do a little series of vignettes for this summer's Denver Comic-Con (FaxExpo) with Moonmanbricks

After realizing it's all scaled to a mouse scale I enjoyed this wonderful diorama even more!

Thanks! I love these mouse heads from Crazy Bricks - good dimensions and quality.

This is really cute! I love the different shapes and sizes of mushroom.

This might be the first MOC I have ever seen with these mice. I have been wondering if people buy them at all. Great fungi!

Thanks! Yeah I wish people would use them more.

Here are a few others I've done with them:

Any enemy of a weasel is liked by me. I couldnt fathom those mushroomcaps not straight, though, for the fundamental idea you said. I enjoy their colors, though.

They look gorgeous!

Extremely creative! Very nice work

Good job with colors, I like that you used limited number of green, scene would get messy with more shades of it.

Love the amount of imagination in this creation!

[Albrick]

Oh, those giant mushrooms!... 🤩👍

The mouse heads were created by a 3rd party company called 'Crazy Bricks' - they should be available on their website still

I might have to get some - I was absolutely obsessed with Redwall back in the day (even have some dandelion wine homebrewing in my kitchen right now), but I've never been motivated to do a MOC because it doesn't feel right without suitably mousey minifigures.

Check out these other builds to see ideas for other figures, too! Including a brickbuilt badger!
