6 cavalry miniatures??? Wow...that's insane. You do know this is round 2 and not round 5 eh ;).
I like the second entry more than the first. The colors are great and I like the banner. I do think that it could use some contrast in shading. It's all a bit flat.
The first entry is cool. The colors are well chosen and I like the total look of the miniatures. In the end the tidyness of the second entry, the better photography and the overwhelming look of 6 cavalry models won my vote.

Again a tough choice.
But photo skills take a point!

I don?t know how many time I've look at my photo here and at the actual figures that now rest on top of the TV? It true that I don?t paint much of shading or highlight on my figures, but it seem that the way I?m taking my photos make the figures look more "flat" that they are in reality? If the sun get out I?ll try to take pictures of my next entries outside? it might help?  :(

I will have to take more time on the photography next time, and may be add some background sceanery. This comp is a great way to get through some the old grey army, ironically my next unit is actually grey, LOL.

Thanks to the LPL, I discovered too how taking photos of miniatures can be painful, but I really like how "clean" is your painting style : your figures look a bit like toys, which make them very atractive,  I confess   :-* lol
Don't change nothing, please !
