DIY Miniature World challenge - Winter and Halloween contest with Cinderella’s pumpkin carriage

I have bought few month ago the pumpkin cart and I have recently finished to personalize it.
I din’t have a kit for a DIY kit for customization but it could be useful to build my scene :smiling_face:.

I would like to participate for the DIY Miniature World Challengeto two season themes for the contest: winter and Halloween (autumn).
Here is the cart which I built and waited to be painted. You’ll see below the original one, the ideal carriage I wanted to make and my finished one.

For the winter theme, I was inspired by the Cinderella story. Then, I decided to use bright and beautiful colors for my pumpkin carriage. Imagine Cinderella wearing a splendid dress to attend the ball organized by the Royal family thanks to a fairy who realized her wish. But careful, she has to leave her Prince Charming before the magic spell ends after twelve strokes of midnight of the Clock.
This scene would be perfect for a winter scene with a castle surrounded by snow on trees and on the floor and maybe stalactites if possible.. This is the scene I would like to make.

However, for the Halloween theme , I would use again Cinderella and her pumpkin carriage which has been stolen by several characters like a witch inside, a wolf wearing a pyjama on the front of the carriage and a pumpkin sat at the back who waves goodbye to her. The difference with the winter scene is that she runs fast behind to retrieve her carriage. And, in this street, my leisure time tea room would be covered with autumn leaves and little decorations in front of the shop window.
This is the kind of hilarious scene which can be found in a Shrek movie. And I will draw few characters.
