The Elvis's are great, but the gun-toting showgirls just put the cap on this entry.

Glad people like them. They were actually added as a necessary measure to reach that confouned count of five. There were no more Bubbas to be found anywhere so I had to come up with somthing that would complete the picture. But *one* showgirl doesn't make anyone convinced so when I was reminded of the Copplestones bikini babes in the FFFF story about the Pink Baron I ordered a full chorus line.

They are the famous Valkyrie Ballet of the classical Scandinavian themed Las Vegas extravaganza 'The Asgard Hotel and Casino', also famous for their door attendants in horned helmets and of course that celebrated albino walrus couple Ole and Lena.

West Wind should start a range called Las Vegas Wars. Just think about it: Ziegfried & Roy with attack tigers, Roman Centurions with machine guns, Circe de Solei Killer Clowns and a vampire Celine Dion...

Me too. But I don't know who are the manufacturers of the two Elvis to the left. I know of the Hasslefree and RAFM, but the others?

The pirates are very well done but I'm gonna hafta go fot the gun-totin Elvis(es?). Love the Showgirls as well...some clever conversion and a silly theme will get my vote every time! The 'Welcome' sign is a nice touch.

There was some talk about getting Zoogla'd, where you do your damndest but end up paired with Zoolga's jewel-toned marvels. But I think this time the effect is called getting Hammershielded - you compose your scene with care and verve, and get paired up against Peder's latest and zaniest band.

Very kind of you to say.

But I have to admit the set up turned out quite nice. The sign sort of ties the whole thing together; it wasn't even a big effort to get it to look like that since it is basically just a photograph.
