am I the only one who thinks, that there is a hidden theme in this year's league? It's: red! So many entries, where the colour red is extraordinarily outstanding!

maybe closely followed by violett ^^

best wishes
Drachenklinge

PS @ Frank
are these ripples there in the lake accidentely or consciously?

The first one if my choice, nice work Frank (again), but the second is very good too (not a great draw for you!!)

Great picture Frank, the colours are wonderful! The Sisters are very well done as well and the matching display finishes them off nicely 8)

Thank you!

@Drachenklinge: The rippels are originated accidentally. I have used transpartent window-colour.

@Orctrader: They are from Perry Miniatures.

Well done Lazarus, drawing Frank seems to be a cruel fate for such a nice entry

Frank those brown horses are amongst the best I've seen anywhere and really stand out - care to give a hint of the paint recipe? I ask because I think its really difficult to paint lighter colours like that without getting a dulling effect but yours have a lovely sheen still and don't look at all flat (Ok I'll say pretty please for the recipe lol)

Well, by now everyone should know exactly how much in awe I hold Frank!

BUT,
....

I gotta say, Laz did a tremendous job and everyone should tell him so too, I think.

Please don't squash me frank? lol
