Uh, I guess I'm missing some kind of joke... St Trinians? Anything I should know about that? Doesn't ring a bell...

St Trinian's, a school for "young ladies" with its anarchic doctrine of free expression, brings together a motley crew of ungovernable girls who, using their wit and ingenuity, save the school from bankruptcy.

I believe there were two sequels as well. Great entry Hammers, very impressive with all of your usual creative details.

Incidently, my first shot is actually shot through a fishbowl. It's sort of hard to tell since I was able to angle the lighting so that there was no obvious glare. You can make out the base of the fishbowl near the bottom.

WOW! Both entries are brilliant. This one was a very difficult decision for me.

I thought so. Clever.

And thanks.

Boy! One of the hardest fights in a long long time! I love the tartans, but the fishmen look awesome!

Pure class
Both of you
tightest decision I've had to make so far

Well, the concept dates back to a series by Ronald Searle. The earliest is from 1942. The whole series is known for their emblematic illustrations. There was a series of b/w films based on these and then very much tarted up versions released just within the last few years.

My design for this mansion is very much inspired by the real school of St Trinians in Edinburgh. The initial inspiration for doing this building was to play St Trinian's scenarios with these little sweethearts.

Now that's the kind of background story and research that makes me love LAF. Thanks for sharing those extra details; I had no idea beyond the 'very much tarted up versions' as you so eloquently put it. Oh, and the Workbench thread; Hammers, you are a master.

I've only seen the 2007 movie and I really loved it. I'm not surprised it's based on older concepts though, as this happens for a lot of movies nowadays. I really love both entries so I'm not going to vote yet

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the latter films to. Rupert Everett is very funny as headmistress Fritton. I now sort of wish I had put boaters on some of the smaller girls.

Nightmare. Love them both. Great stuff guys.

Hammers, has anyone ever told you you're one crazy nutter?

No, you are the first and I am offended.

I'm loving all the "top of the table" clashes thrown up by Round 6. This is perhaps the best yet! Tough call to choose between 2 excellent entries.

Hammers · « **Reply #29 on:** April 23, 2011, 08:46:51 AM »

Bit of a nail biter this one.

I would not have any problem what so ever being beaten by your excellent entry, DJ. Well painted, great conversion and cool presentation. I could never come up with something like that.
