Valleyboy gets the long alliterative title award! Reminds me of an etching I own titled "A Jackrabbit, Jezebel, and a Jealous, Jilted Jesse James". Pretty cool entry, there's a lot going on in there :)

Orctrader, what nice painting. You've made me consider stripping the paint off my witchdoctors!

another toigh choice since both entries are gorgeous. Both a marvellous job done.

My only criticism goes to the figure of the lady baker. Her legs awful bad.

Really crisp entry Orctrader, lovely colours, well done - who makes these?

@ Dr Mathias, thanks, but on reflection probably too much going on though!

Fair criticism, they were different but the paint stripped off at one point as the figure was being handled  :-[ and redoing them was a bit of a rush job

I hope she wash her feet... ::)

Nice entries, both of them, but I do prefer the Napoleonic scene myself... Great job 8)

Great entry Valleyboy.  Lovely "scene-setting."

Really crisp entry Orctrader, lovely colours, well done - who makes these?

Thanks.
