The first round is certainly opening with some tough matches...

Hard for the competitors, but great fun for the observers!  ;D

Well, we the viewers, definitely get some great eyecandy this LPL! Another two great entries... But I do like the bold and crisp colours of the first entry just little more. Great show, guys!

Oooh, tough choice! Superb painting on lovely 20mm models or a great little diorama made with terrain and miniatures. Well done to both!

both very nice. Tough choice between well done technicolor and well done muted.

I want a closer view of the pig minis, those look like good pigs, always nice to have some good pig minis  lol  what manufacturer are they?

Both are amazing! Only problem is I'm not so crazy about the painting I did on my own DF minis, now that I see these! :o

Well done!

Fantastic work on those 20mm Dark Future figs. That is a sweet, crisp paintjob.

Lovely jobs on both, but I thought the 20mm figures looked better than most 28s..............  8)
