Well what a face off.  The best two painters in the LPL with the same entry. Both are fantastic paintings.  This is the most difficult choice of the entire competition.

Now that was a hellishly tight contest. I had to sit down with a checklist for this.
Measure with a micrometer, mark with chalk, cut with an axe, hammer to fit, paint to match!

Wow. This is it. What entry to vote for? The best of the best did their best to show the best. Somehow it couldn´t be different from this. You both deserve to win this competition. I love trains, but what shall I vote for now? A hard nut to crack...

Not going to vote yet. I really cant decide.
As far as i am concerned you two are both number 1 in this league.
I think i will try harder and prepare early for next year so i can end up 3rd, 4th, or 5th behind you two again!!!

I may not vote on this one  o_o

That is some fine work gentlemen!
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

Great scenes and good pairing by organizers.  The brightness of the background shows off the nice colors in the single wagon scene.  The other one is too dark for my tastes, all the figures painted the same.  Lawrence is straight out of the movie.  The Arabs are excellent.
I am interested in land warfare throughout history and beyond, except the Seven Years War, in Europe.
