Who in the heck makes that naked dude?   lol  Great entry Le Matou Rouge!

The assassin looks deadly... pink and black, a very nice combo!

Wow...the first one stands out for all its bizareness. Really nice and weird miniatures. Love the colors and the total look gives an excellent group of superheroes. The second entry is nice too. The golden robots look really cool. I'm personally not a fan of the puzzle-road and the turrets as participants for the entry.

I think I prefer the painting and layout of Raz's entry, but I don't think they form a single cohesive squad, so I'm afraid my vote has to go to LMR's entry - which is alsoo pretty good! :)

THe figures in the first entry are so bizzare. I like the glowing eyes on the leader which is a great looking figure overall, with one exception...his legs look far too short. As for the assassin in the second entry...what a great figure, and it is very nicely painted. Fantastic job!!
Victory is guaranteed to the last man standing, but always remember those whom you stepped on to get there!!

Thanks for the comments, guys, but I'm really suprised nobody "named" them : they are Hellboy and Friends ! aren't they recognisable ? So from left to right :

Roger the homunculus, the Lobster, his Evilness, Johan Krauss and Abe Sapien.

I didn't title my entry "BPRD" cause I believed it would be an autowin : I thing I should do so now  :D The Jackson Five is indeed a reference to their maker : "Steve Jackson Games". The set is recently OOP but by sheer luck,  I found them on Noble Knight Games for a bargain : $11 !!! They were supposed to be "midgets" near actual minis but they are perfect for Foundy size (just a bit flat though)   
My painting is very rushed but it's the first time I finished figs two weeks after purchase : my record !

I would like to notice too, that the dear Captain very nicely resized my picture cause he thought it was too small : merci, mon Capitaine.

Finally, I would like to congrat Raz for his very nice entry : i like the models choices but I think the splitscreen don't serve them.

cheers,
Matt

PS : @ Hitman : Hellboy's Legs are perfectly proportionned to Mignola's style  ;) - but maybe not nobody's taste though : look  o_o :
