These are both great looking entries. Shading is well done by both, yet the shading has the right effect for each group. Impressive!!

  Who manufactures the Miskatonic crew?

[Dan]

I think for me this has to be the hardest choice , I can't really decide which I like more.

Those are all Hasslefree miniatures - a professor and the 4 'not-scooby' Gang. Gods, some grest work here.

[Dan]

Ok what swung it for me was there is no Scooby  I'm just watching it now so it kind of upset me . I liked the monkey too though .

[Uncle Mike]

Both great! Aaaaaargh! My mind!!! ...

Correct, they're all part of Hasslefree's "Non-Coms & Civilians" line (as seen here):

Scientist=Prof. Beattie

It's a measure of Kev White's sculpting genius that he has cunningly concealed Freddy's foppish cravat/kerchief/whatever-the-hell-that-is behind the hand on his chin...

Amusingly, while I absolutely love these figures, I was never very fond of the Scooby-do cartoon (even though I was supposedly the right age for it when it first appeared). You'd think that after the first 20 or 30 times, the kids would have learned not to be frightened of whatever supposed paranormal manifestation they happened to run across that week and to go right to the evil local land developer first thing, but no....!

Also, if Scooby Snacks are required to motivate Shaggy & Scooby, why not dispense them first thing? Why wait until the last possible moment...?

Hmmm... that second entry reminds me of a group of comedians we have here in DK. 'Sons of the Desert' they call themselves... very below-waistline comedy.....

[Grimm]

oh to hard to make a decision but I have too.
I go for the Miskatonic University because the grey pullover is fantastic painted.

[dodge]

both great hard to decide

while I do love the idea with the Ucrew 1968 I voted for the Fez gang. Mainly because the picture was better lighted. See, the Not-Scooby gang has a big problem in my opinion. The picture has a yellow cast which "breaks" the painting job IMHO.

But both of them are great.
