Hmm tricky - nice colouration on those wolves Pil - something I'm still trying to master.

The Deep ones are looking great too with those bright colours.

oooh! Another tricky one. I really like the fur of the wolves, but the fishmen finally made it. Creepy! Well done to both!

Hard to choose here, both are great.

Love the fishmen, the wolves are fantastic...

Those wolves with the multi-level shading are amazing!  Way beyond anything I can do....  Maybe I need to spend less time judging and more time reading the "how to" section  ;)

the clean lines on the fishies is amazing as well.  the shark in particular really captures my attention!

This is really a tough one

Great deep ones D@rth! I especially like the small ones with the green heads, there's no shame in losing here 8)

Thanks all for the kind words on the wolves, I tried my best to give them a bit of a natural and interesting looking coat, and the vampire is there to spice things up a bit. I wasn't too fond of the model at first but he has a nice Nosferatu quality about him. Though he does look a bit like Gargamel indeed ;)

Thanks Pil. 
Having seen the shading and depth of colour on your wolf fur is making me want to go back and add some depth to one of my own models for one of my later entries  ;)

I'm looking forward to seeing your entry! The wolf pelt ranges from near white to black so there's no harm in using a bit of contrast. Though you're not afraid to use bold colours so I'm sure the result will be smashing either way 8)
