Frank at last! Oh well, it had to happen. Think this will be a nail-biter!  ::)

Absolutely gorgeous Masai, Frank. And wonderful mood lighting  :-*
And an almost exclusively Copplestone vs Copplestone affair, which I always love to see  :)

A couple of quick thank-yous on my entry: Aircav for kindly supplying the undertaker (the chap in the stripey blazer with pocket watch) a year or two back. The figure was a Partizan giveaway sculpted by Mike Owen.
And Admiral Benbow for the two Victorian special edition ladies from Foundry – Rose Earlly and Constance Bowbridge. Thank you Keith and Michael.
The Corto Maltese and Dr. Watson figures (also from Foundry) have languished in my lead pile for at least 12 years. Finally they see paint! This is what the LPL is all about!
And lastly, Irene Adler figure is from Ironclad. I could wish she looked a bit more like Rachel MacAdams, but she ain’t bad  ;)
The Victorian warehouse in the background is custom-built by TM Terrain, and kindly on loan to me from Senor Malamute.

That checked suit is just incredible, how on earth can you paint that?

Honestly, it's easier than it looks. Just paint vertical stripes, then cross them with horizontal stripes, then block in the crossover point with a darker colour to make a rudimentary tartan. Then touch in a little lighter shade in the middle of every little 'box'. Peasy  ;)

Ridiculous.

I think that might be what I thought upon seeing these two entries. Wow!
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

I have no fall back on this one.  Unlike last LPL I have not had to hold back on my vote yet - until today.  Both of these are masterworks.  This may come down to a coin toss.
