The Adventurer's guide to the Cyclops

Well fellow travelers here is "The Adventurer's Guide to the Cyclops".  There are many clues to look for when you and your merry band are adventuring to know if you are within a Cyclops' territory. 

The first is usually located on the boarder of the territory.  This is the Cyclops' way of saying "Keep Out"....




 
 
If for some reason you miss the first clue, then there is the sacrifice rock. This is more common if there is a village nearby.
 

 
Now if you think to yourself that those warnings aren't meant for me, then the next "sign" should start to raise some flags.... To the unaware this grouping of rocks might look natural, but on closer inspection they appear to be thrown for target practice. 



 
Finally, if you walk blissfully past these signs like you are on a stroll through the country side, then there is a good chance you will see your last (and final) sign... The Cyclops!






 
 
The Cyclops was a plastic toy that was picked up at a craft store.  I added some GW severed heads to his belt as future snacks.  The hanging skulls were also from GW.  The other bones are actually chicken bones that were boiled and cleaned.  I had some fun when making the trio of rock and adding arms and legs beneath two of them.  As you can see from the last picture, the Cyclops is a decent size compared to the Greek adventurer. 
 
C and C always welcome.  Thanks for looking.
