Good luck to you both.

Post by: Pil on June 29, 2009, 06:35:39 PM: This was another tough decision for me. I love the second entry and the use of the old Citadel monsters as beasts (something different than a dinosaur for a change). Also, I'm still wondering what the creatures on the left are, their faces look a bit like teletubbies ;) That said, I had to go for the sublime painting on Tellus' entry which is a rich contrast against the quite simply drybrushed animals in the second (which looks very convincing BTW), so for once I voted off-theme.

And although the pictures suggest otherwise I assure you the beasts are not simple dry brush jobs - cheeky git

Love your painting style combined with the colors. It pops so well on the miniatures. The flag is a fantastic addition. And as usual the presentation is terrific. To me this is your best entry so far.

I'm both curious and flabberghasted by Svenn's entry. The natives are so superweird I don't know what they actuallyu are. But I do really like them. Their alien and weird look works perfectly as natives. I can imagine the adventurers thinking 'WTF?!'. The monsters are well chosen and I like that you painted two of them. How did you manage to stick the spider to the rock? It looks very cool in the photo. I just hope he didn't fall off on an adventurer afterwards.

The natives are ancient Chinese from Curteys, some of them are wearing face masks. Spider on rock = blu tac.

Thank's a lot.I like my 28th too.Not at least I had to do some Head swaps on the officer and the color bearers because there are none with Stovepipes in the Foundry range.Also it adds some variety to the latter ones because I had to take the same mini twice.
