 :o Brilliant entry Tsar. :-* Love the praying, shooting and running lol lol lol
Against anybody else I would have voted for yours! (but I am afraid I am not that gentlemanly. Sorry! So I voted for my own.)
With my un-gentlemanly conduct it looks like I am going to get a well deserved gubbing this round.

Oh dear yes!!
Both entries are great but the HHG Mythos is superb

Both are terrific. Love the black robes with red details. Exactly what I had in mind for my Egyptian cultists, so thanks for the inspiration. Now I know how the colors will look :D.

But the first one is exactly what I love and what wins me over in the LPL. It has a great story, humour, great painting and of course, it's Lovecraftian. Shub-Niggurath would be proud Tsar! 9/10 for me.

Tsar, absolutely stunning entry!  :-*

It's so good, I'd like to see lessons 1 - 41 as well.

I love the uniformity and choice of colors on The Extras.  The eyes are also very well done, as is the leather of the pouches. 

What I love about The Hitchhikers is that the somberness of the minis' colors is so well counterbalanced by the orange flowers (leaves?) on their bases.  I don't think I've ever voted for a base before, but these bases provide something absolutely necessary.

These are both nice entries. The first entry is nicely animated and the bases are unique with the coloured aspects. QUite nice. The second entry reminds me of The Mummy. Some nice shading. Good luck to you both!!
Victory is guaranteed to the last man standing, but always remember those whom you stepped on to get there!!

I really like the Tsar entry, the two are nice but the HGTM gains cause the humour touch.

I don't quite know why, but I find myself drawn to the first entry...

@Greg: You may have demonic eyes to reconize your Innsmouth's buldings, you frighten me  :D

@Admiral Benbow: I'm not sure there's some 1 to 41 lessons, as 42 is the ultimatea Answer to Life, the Universe and Everything  lol

@Macha: they are leaves

@gamer Mac: I agree with Malebolgia, exellant choice of color, good source of inspiration.

@everyboy: GLORY TO SUB-NIGGURATH  ;D

@Gamer Mac - I'm very impressed with your highlighting of the black, it can be a pig to pull off, but you've managed it very nicely.
