ROUND 3 The Tsar vs Darkest Africa Askari

[Captain Blood]

[Pil]

This was a tough one but in the end I went for Calimero's entry because of his usual; cleanness whereas the white on the first entry seems a bit rough in some places. Nevertheless the Tsar model in the first entry looks really good.

[Braxandur]

Both entries seem to be lacking a bit in the shading/highlite department but a painted very neat.

Good job guys! You also made me wish (again) for a both button. The 2nd entry won by just a slight margin.

I think the first entry suffers a bit because of the posing of the figures. Almost everyone is in profile or has their backs three quarters turned to the camera. Simply rotating the figures outward a little bit to reveal a bit more of the detail would have made a stronger entry IMHO.

I think you're right Heldrak.  Photography obviously isn't my strong point, I tried the inserting detailed pics within the main pic but it didn't work.  Oh well it's the taking part that counts.

Good job on the Askari Calimero

[Calimero]

Thanks Sterling Moose,

The funny thing is that I think about voting for your entry for a while… I might have if the figures were facing the camera. I think it would’ve been a "more dynamic" entry that way…

BTW, Are you from Canada too?

Calimero,
Hopefully I can count on your vote in future rounds, when I'll try to do a better with the pics   

BTW, Are you from Canada too?

Yep, London, Ontario.

I doubted for this one for a while but in the end voted for number one. I like the way the miniatures are presented. It feels like a story and you can look at it for several miniatus, thinking the story. Nice one! I also like the variety of the first one a lot.
