Wonderful work both! That oil drill and the vehicles are fabulous! The Treasure Island crew is fabulous as well, are these based on a particular movie or on the book? I think the large ship looks a bit unfinished but judging by the nice woodwork on the rowing boat it will be sorted out some day 8)

The movie is called There Will be Blood, about a guy starting an oil company in the US: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0469494/

It gets a very high rating but I personally wasn't too fond of the movie.

It does say "There will be Blood" on the entry itself. Perhaps an error of transcription on the part of Captain (There will be) Blood?  :)

Title supplied as written but I realized the typo as soon as I sent it and sent another email with the correction  ;)
Good thing I put the title on the entry itself  ::)

It did win 2 Oscars including Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role for Daniel Day-Lewis

Rapscallion , I really like your entry.  Can you tell me a bit more about the rowboat? Is it scratchbuilt? If not, where can I get one?

This is a really tough round to pick in.  Both groups of figures are excellently painted.  The detailed work on the oil rig really makes the scene come alive.

Hi D@rth, the rowboat is actually a plastic LEGO boat which paints up quite nicely.
