Is that a "Hetzer" tank destroyer on the left side of the pic? If so ... interesting vehicle choice ... nice and inconspicuous! :D

Other than that great work on the minis ... both of you. It is a tough choice.

Yes it is an Hetzer  ;) this round is sort of inspired by 'Girls und Panzers'  :) When they are grown up :D

That's some smooooth painting on those faces Chambers, wow!

Intriguing scene and impressive painting Blackwolf... no less than expected. I know of Girls and Tanks, but other than a graphic or two I don't know anything about it. Since we seem to enjoy many of the same things I need to check it out now ;)

Two great sets of figures both with red heads - I have a red head to paint and so far failed to get anything resembling reality - What colours have you guys used to get it right

Thanks

I also agree, a tough one, here! One of the last this round I was able to decide  :-*

say, please, where is the girl with the "a little black one is always a good choice" from?
I also like the English looking lady with leggins and dog. I suppose, the're all from the same manufacturer?

best wishes

The two ladies in dresses (Gina and Rae .... fancy names huh? :)) are from Hasslefree ... don't know about the others.

Great match-up, differing but both very effective styles of painting and great photo compositions, too.

The others are from me, though Guy has replaced Havana's robodog with a live example, don't know the source. Mind you, I sculpted Rae, too. :D

First painted Eva I've seen- cheers Guy!

Wow.  Gentlemen you have both produced fantastic work for us again.  Such a difficult decision.

The Amazons get my vote, strong women with great style!

Tough choice! Blackwolf, why do I have a feeling you've faced nearly every opponent in the top 10 of the Leaderboard? That you are in 3rd place while facing such caliber of opponents speaks volumes about your skill and artistry! And Chamber, another flawless entry. Gorgeous!

I had no idea the 'Thrilling Tales' range was so extensive, slipped under the radar as I have focused on other eras.

I acquired the Pulp Alley rules a couple weeks ago... dangerous to the bank account to see such great figures. Does Tabletop Games in KC carry those figures Chambers?

I'm going to delay voting on this one, too difficult :)

He has been matched against 4 in the present top ten.

As the league comes to an end, the folks at the top have a tendency of bouncing off each other to determine the champion.

Astounding record with that schedule! I'd be sitting on a goose egg if mine was the same...! lol lol lol

My hats off to all the participants, and of course to Paul and Ray for providing us with this fun.

Well done Patrick!

Thanks for the comment chaps :)

My recipe for red hair varies,this is the one I used here;

All Vallejo;

Black red,mixed with a little flat brown
Flat red added,a little at a time as it gets brighter,importantly the mix gets thinner( more water is added as I go).
