I enjoyed both of these entries quite a bit.  What range are the Girls Gone Wild minis from?

I don't know how you do it, Prof, but you always manage to make your colours look so lustrous. Who *does* your makeup? Is it the camera, good photoshop-fu or simply a knack for colour composing?

The three warriors are from Reaper, the half-giant is from Grenadier and the giant is from Otherworld.

A really tough decision.

While the colours in the Sons of Ymir are rich, beautifully applied, expertly chosen and the whole deal is situated against a nice backdrop, it was the well executed and understated realistic tones that made me vote for the Girls.

I suspect that if the girls were photographed against as Skull island type backdrop or something that they would have garnered more votes.

Well done to both entrants.

That's what I thought, too. Excellent painting job on those girls.

Dolmot's girls are terrifying, but the paint job on that big blue frost giant (I think it's a frost giant) cinches it for the Sons of Ymir. Tough match-up, this one.
