Had to think hard before voting on this!

@DrM:
Hadn't seen those Hydra worms before  :)
Is the human Valkeeri Leader B with a headswap (Statuesque)?

Very tough match. Wonderful painting all round, and the usual intriguing storytelling from Dr.Mathias...

Lovely painting on both sets.  Took me a long time to decide how to vote.

Thanks everyone, appreciated.

That is correct, Statuesque heads are wonderful (not that the original Valkeeri head wasn't ;) )
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

Pulper, how much conversion work did you do on those? Particularly the magus and 'standing hands at side' guy? I have a good size collection of genestealer cult miniatures from the old days, and some more recent 3rd party releases. I'm not really familiar with the new stuff. Your color scheme and painting are fantastic.

Thanks for the praise.
The small guy is from CP models with a hybrid head added, while the big guy is from Warlord´s zombie game with added Tyranid parts. The Magus uses the legs of a fantasy chaos sorceror and newer hybrid parts.
