ROUND 10 Surprise Attack vs Back from The Lost World

[Captain Blood]

[Bako]

They're right behind you, good chum! Another excellent pair-up.

[gamer Mac]

Two great entries
How do you choose between them 
Chess set is lovely scratch built? What about the players?
Great story in the second

[oldskoolrebel]

While both are truly excellent, I'm afraid that the second wins it for me, crisp photograph and simple layout.

and of course great painting on both!

[Mancha]

Sort of a random pteradactyl in that first entry, but beautiful paintjobs of great minis.  Gotta add; it's just such an unlikely domestic scene.

Tsar's entry is also beautifully painted, but it's hard not to vote for a chess set.

[D@rth J@ymZ]

The chess set is excellent I agree...
The long arms on the TRex look sooooo awkward  but the grouping is excellent
Well done both of you.

[Uncle Mike]

Holy! Both dinos are fantastic!!! Great entries!

[Admiral Benbow]

Chess set is lovely scratch built? What about the players?

The chess table itself is scratchbuild, the chess figures are from a very old 54 mm set by Phoenix Miniatures and slumbered in my drawers for more than 30 years ...

Players are standard miniatures from Foundry's Darkest Africa range, only the hand of the right mini was slightly converted to hold the chess figure (instead of a pistol, I think).

Pygmies are the old Citadel ones, and the Pterodactylus is from Papo with some repainting, and resculpting the large "Made in China" stampings on his wings.

Thanks for all the nice comments, and it was real fun again to participate in season 3. 
Even if it will be the fourth place - again.

Absolutely brilliant Admiral, love the chess players

[Hitman]

These are both really nice entries. The detailing in the first is fantastic...WOW!! The second entry has just as nice detailing, but the photo is a bit too bright, which doesn't provide the viewer with the correct viewing!! Great job to both of you. Both button please!!
Regards,
Hitman

Don't worry, you are going to win this round, and it's deserved, to my opinion.
Your painting quality is awsome  (as usual)
At least you'll be on the third place.

It's a pleasure to face you on this last round. 

Cheers Admiral


@all: thks for the comments 

[Pil]

This was a real tough decision because both entries are great! The second photograph is a bit clearer, but the dinosaur looks a bit too much like an oversized Velociraptor rather than a Tyrannosaurus. That said, the painting on the adventurers and cavemen looks really great. The admiral's entry is colourful as ever and I love the Pteranodon, it's also great to see the old Citadel Pygmees again (hardly ever saw any painted). That said, the photography is a bit less clear. In the end it was partly the jungle in the first picture that won it over the fir trees in the second picture.

  can´t choose 
but then I realize the chess .
I am very sorry tsar1701 that is hard 

sorry Grimm

[tsar1701]

Grimm look at me:  the chess is not so fantastic.

but one day I'll have my revenge .... mwahahahahha (mad-demonic laught) 

[Ray Rivers]

 

That is just some fantastic work by both you guys!

Well done... really... well done.
