We're so polite we'd clearly overuse such a thing and no one would win!   :)

For me it was a quick choice: I just looooooooooooove the way the first picture is presented. A lot of attention to the (funny!) story and it all clicks together so well this way. If you'd presented them as a simple shot it would be slightly funny but mostly weird. Now it's just terrific. I actually laughed out loud. The painting is also a top job...really vibrant and warm colors and they are well chosen. Awesome entry. My favorite entry for round 2 8)

Picture 2 is awesome too. Love the miniatures themselves...great painting and colors and the backdrop is super. The thing that slightly bugged me was the lack of eyes (I know...Copplestone sculpts truly suck eye-wise) and that they didn't really fit together now. But still a really good entry.

Tough call but I loved the truck in the back of the second pic so much I just had to vote for it. The first one is awesome too though!
