Doing both entries on the very day of the deadline left me with no time to take decent photos. But I'll take care of that in the subsequent rounds. :)

Given the extremely limited time-frame you were working under (i.e. learning of the contest on the last day possible), I think your entry is pretty amazing. If I had only had that little time, my entry would probably have been five unpainted figures with the mold lines removed and maybe some terrain work done on the bases.  lol

Well done!

Nicely painted archer unit, well presented!

Those ghouls are quite "characterful", if that term makes any sense under these circumstances ... 8)
Where are they from?

Like the rest of my Ghouls, these are goblins from GW's The Hobbit range, with a few bits from other kits swapped in. The leader is converted from a plastic Skaven character, with a Goblin head. And there's putty to tie it all together and add some details, like hair. I actually took some pictures at different stages, but I don't know if I'm allowed to post that as per League rules.

Not too sure about that either, but once this week's voting is over there could surely be no objections to it.

Thanks. I realize that I have been a bit too heavy for the shadows and lining, and the bases could be cleaner too.
