Both very nice entries but when I realised how huge that piece of machinery in the second picture had to be it won me over, great effort!

And again two great entries! :) Seeing the US Aeronef crewed and in action is great.

I agree! At least it show that some of us can stay focused long enough to actually finish a project.  lol

Also, I thinks that Ray deserve “extra points” for painting the faces of those crews so well. Redoubt miniatures’ ACW head are often miscast and lacking some details…

Thanks mate,

D@rth's mini's have lots of character and great presentation.

The Blunderbuss isn't completely finished either.  Still have the tail fin and the stand to do... hopefully after the league.

Dooby will be taking the next round off.  He's headed to the Vet's.

I'm thinking about having him neutered...  lol

In my opinion, both entries are rather nice, and I was seriously tempted to vote for the mobsters (coincidentally watched "The Godfather" yesterday), but then again I was so happy to see that aerial ironclad painted up... that and it looks like the setup for a Broadway musical (the piece´s title not being helpful! lol). Somehow I can´t stop thinking that those little fellows are just about to break into a song and dance number. ;)

The usual suspects look great, and I love the presentation! Very nicely done, and very imaginative.

I went for the mobsters. I really like their gangster look and come on...there is a Dick Tracey!!! I also like the way of presenting them a lot. Good inspiration there.
The second picture is also terrific...I like the way the miniatures work together in the picture and the setting. Only thing is I don't understand what they are standing on and what it is supposed to be. So that leaves me kind of confused as I don't get the machine.
