D&D: Sword of Shannara

An update from RPG Land. A commission piece for family and I wanted to post an update. The following piece is for a Dungeon and Dragons module: Sword of Shannara. The inspiration is from this older module with a picture of a skull castle in a mountain side. All aspects of the mountain were not obviously captured; i.e. the taller mountainsides or the arched entrance, however I had to work with polystyrene I already had and the skull is a light up skull from Halloween decor. The skull was cut in half, the jaw removed then converted into a bridge, glued onto a 18"x24" piece of wood and the skull then magnetized for being removed.

The last image is of the front of the skull removed. I was informed that the inside will be transformed into a multi-level evil fortress in the near future and that the piece was accepted and appreciated.

Sword of Shannara

My next Commission project is to make a full size 25mm replica of this D&D image from a text Sword of Shannara. The Sword of Shannara is a 1977 epic fantasy novel by Terry Brooks. The first book of the Original Shannara Trilogy, it was followed by The Elfstones of Shannara and The Wishsong of Shannara. Inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and historical adventure fiction, Brooks began writing The Sword of Shannara in 1967. It took him seven years to complete, as he was writing the novel while attending law school. After being accepted for publication by Ballantine Books, it was used to launch the company's new subsidiary, Del Rey Books. Upon its release, The Sword of Shannara was a major success and the first fantasy paperback to appear on the New York Times bestseller list. Its success provided a major boost to the commercial expansion of the fantasy genre.
