When I saw the first entry I said, "WOW!!! How on earth did you do the liquid inside the tanks? That looks absolutely awesome!! Please share. What a photo.... Amazing, simply amazing!!"

Then I scrolled down to the second entry, and my mouth fell open again!! The photo almost made those figures look real and not miniatures...great job.

Captain Blood, can I choose both?? Pleasssseeee!!!

Best of luck to both of you...you both deserve to win....now I have to try and decide :'(

Post by: Wirelizard on June 01, 2009, 06:48:19 AM: You want me to choose just ONE of these two?

They're both original, awesome paint and scenery, and great photos & editing.

I seriously am going to flip a coin. Can't decide otherwise!

Post by: Argonor on June 01, 2009, 10:01:36 AM: I just noticed the Giger-esque background of the monsters. It reminded me of some 'Amera-like' sheets of thin plastic moulded to use for the interior of xenomorf hives and the likes that I had in the games shop where I worked some 10 years ago.... sadly, I do not recall weho made/makes them.... anyone having an idea what I'm talking about???

EDIT:

The Force is strong with this one ;)

I just googled and found:

I dont know if they're available, though.... ???

Post by: Admiral Benbow on June 01, 2009, 02:32:07 PM: Tellus, brilliant entry - amazing photo!

Some infos for my entry:

Figures f.l.t.r.: Metal Magic Dunwich Detective monster; Asgard alien figure by Nick Bibby (really old ...); Rafm Cthulhu hound; Citadel horror fig (not sure about it ...); centre miniature is the Sludge Gulper from Heresy sculpted by Kev White.
Tanks are Containment Units/Bacta Tanks from Tony Colasante (Ebay: tonygriffon) filled with clear resin from german model railroad company Noch (2K Wasser-Gel).
Background from a Giger-book.

Thanks for all your nice comments.
:)

Post by: Tellus on June 01, 2009, 02:54:28 PM: Great Job Admiral :o

All that kind comments made the effort worth,thank you!
Title: Re: ROUND 6 Five are together again… vs Let’s get some more!
Post by: Alxbates on June 02, 2009, 05:13:14 AM: OMG I can't decide. Both entries are amazing.

The variety of figures used in the first entry, somehow tied together with a similar theme and paint scheme, plus the work of the resin tanks? Wow.

But the second pic looks like a still photo from a film!! Lovely bases, perfect skin tones, simple but effective and evocative background...

Yeesh...

Fantastic work on both! :-* :-* :-*

Post by: UncleRhino on June 03, 2009, 03:51:03 AM: Unless I miss my guess, the Giger image is one from his "train" series from a dream sequence illustration unused in Alien? You selected that because of the horizontal pattern in the artwork serving as a less distracting background?

Outstanding brushwork as well, both of you.

Post by: Pil on June 03, 2009, 09:17:08 AM: Both great entries indeed! Fantastic work on the fabric again Tellus, as well as on the horse (and the skin and the scenery ;)). And of course the admiral's entry is another real treat! The only thing I don't like too much is the base used as a manhole, it just sticks out of the floor too much IMO. Other than that great brushwork and a very inspiring entry.
