kjm161 Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Get "a-head" in life with advice from Shrunken Ned. Let Esmeralda predict your future, or let Fortune Red direct you to your fortune. All three can be found in Disneyland.

xboxtravis7992 Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Esmeralda and Shrunken Ned are spot on. I don't recall ever seeing the pirate one though... Those 10¢ animated viewers would be a fun thing to display near Esmeralda. The Nickle Arcade is full of cool machines. Quote
carebear Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Great Work!!!! Love what you did whit the frogs Greetings Quote
kjm161 Posted July 3, 2016 Author Posted July 3, 2016 Thanks for the comments! Love what you did whit the frogs The frogs make great scroll legs. Those 10¢ animated viewers would be a fun thing to display near Esmeralda. The Nickle Arcade is full of cool machines. I agree and have an idea of how I want to make them. Has the Penny Arcade turned into the Nickel Arcade due to inflation? I haven't been to Disneyland and got my reference material online. According to internet sources Fortune Red used to be part of the Pirate Arcade Museum but is now located by the Pieces of Eight shop. Going to look for all of them this August. Quote
xboxtravis7992 Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Yeah it's the Penny Arcade; goof on my part writing the comment Quote
Karalora Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Gonna repeat what I said in the Ladies' Forum, kjm161--you are my hero for creating these. Esmeralda and Shrunken Ned are spot on. I don't recall ever seeing the pirate one though... The last time I saw him he was in the little exterior corridor between the Pirates gift shop and the Haunted Mansion/Nightmare Before Christmas gift shop. They seem to have a hard time deciding on a permanent place for him though. Quote
Exetrius Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Lovely use of (printed) parts and colours on each one of these! The one with the brown hues is probably my favorite, with the stained glass and decorated little windows, the warm colour scheme and the overall proportions. Great use of the compass piece and the ticket intake (I think? I'm not familiar with the source material). Sand green, Bright light blue and Pearl gold look splendid together on the pirate-themed one! Great builds! Quote
kjm161 Posted July 4, 2016 Author Posted July 4, 2016 The last time I saw him he was in the little exterior corridor between the Pirates gift shop and the Haunted Mansion/Nightmare Before Christmas gift shop Thanks for the location. Hope I can find him in person!Great use of the compass piece and the ticket intake Haven't seen Shrunken Ned in person but seeing youtube videos of him in action you are supposed to put your hand on a palm print and he will give you a pithy life lesson. Very hard to find a printed tile with a palm print but I think the one I used represents it fairly well. I really like the colours in Esmeralda as well.Thanks for the comments. Quote
