Nnoooo...not the prof!  Not when he does shields like that!

I have a feeling I'm going to get taken to school by the prof... :D

Great little scene there Alex!

Cheers,

Blue

Thanks

Hm, but the the Prof is the Prof and... Oh wow, I hope others more wise than me can decide.

Thanks, Chris! Your colourful Citadel buggers are one of my top favorites this round. Fantastic smoothness and a great choice of colors. And I bet on you this round so good luck :)

Yes, a real tough call.
Much as I love ancients and the Prof's fabulous freehand shields, those Chaos figures are wonderfully shaded Blue...

Both great. The tones on the emblem of the blue armored guy's shield is impressive all by itself :)

Professor's got a wealth of details, and well done too...

Tough call!

This was one of the toughest yet - and one of my favourite rounds too, in part driven by the quality, in part for the nostalgia factor of the old chaos types.

Hmmm. 98 all as things stand. That has to be lining up for one of the tightest matches so far...  :o

I've decided to collect DNA a,d build a super LPL painter, and I think I'll start with Blues shading strain!
