for now I cannot decide, really °_O

Very war-ish vs very cool-ish

to me, the "ambiente" of war looks better, but then ... down under there's even a badger, right? - oh my ...

*sigh*

Hi,

Thanks...the animals are from Splintered Light Miniatures -- and there's scads more where they came from. They are from their "Druid's Children" line. It is inspired by the Redwall series of young adult novels, I'm pretty sure.

And yes, that is indeed a badger (not of the "giant wooden" variety...!).

Another tough one!
Great gritty work on the UN troops- and the scene is evocative too.

Great job on the splintered light.  Love these minis, and you did a great job with such a variety.

Would be happy voting for either one.
