ROUND 9 Revolution in Comfort vs Zorro

[Captain Blood]

[Hammers]

Not making it easy for us, are you?

[Helen]

Zorro wins again to fight another adventure!

Hi Guys, this was a tough choice. I do like the way the BCW miniatures were painted.

Good work, both of you! It was close, but even though the Fox has always had a place for me the revolutionaries won it for me.

[Sinewgrab]

I just wish we had a little better view of Zorro himself.

[Mancha]

It would have been humorous had I had sufficient time to paint my intended Malamute figures. 

[Vanvlak]

Oh heck, tough Monday today!
Grand show again - all that's missing from the revolution is a butler with a drinks trolley 

[gamer Mac]

Lovely stuff.
I was about to say no scobby then I noticed him. Blue tack?

[argsilverson]

A tough choice, so a tough week starts and the new round in LPL is difficult.

[Calimero]

Nice work Ray. 

Scooby is indeed very well hidden this time… 

The funny thing about this entry is that I was thinking of doing something very similar for round 10…

I just wish we had a little better view of Zorro himself.

Me too... especially since it's entitled "Zorro."      Believe me I tried and tried but in the end I just couldn't come up with the right combo.  A zoomed in shot of Zorro, for example, got the blue black I used on Zorro himself to come out nicely, but it didn't leave me enough room to do justice to the Vaqueros.   In the end, I had to make a compromise and at least the shot I submitted was good enough to get the brown black I used on Zorro's horse to come out fairly well.  Not sure of the problem here...  the white background may have been a factor.  Or perhaps I was just a bit too subtle.

I'll post some closeups of Zorro after the competition is closed.

Play-Doh!   

[Orctrader]

Both great entries.   

[traveller]

Beautiful entries!

Mancha, what can you tell us about the car? scale and manufacturer?

[Mancha]

Mancha, what can you tell us about the car? scale and manufacturer?

It's a Franklin Mint car, and has the pouncing jaguar on the front.  Beyond this information, I can't help you much.  Isn't coming up on eBay.

Woops, here's an interesting link:
