Both are just painted so beautifully! I love the shadowy staging of the Expedition.

Prof., where are those Dagonesque statues from?

Thanks! They look much better here than in the Monolith catalogue.

Both brilliant. Superbly crisp painting Patrick. Are those the Foundry vikings? I really think they're still the best around.

I might have to get some as i've just invested in Saga!

Alex, wonderful storytelling as ever. Kudos  :)

I have to ask prof, what is it that is lurking in the dark there? The tusks and what appear to be ears suggest an elephantine creature?

Really its that sense of wonder this creates that makes your piece great.

I can't decide which is which. I think I will have to toss a coin.

What a cool concept Prof! When I think of the Roman era, I don't picture small adventurer groups- really clever.

Chambers, I love the clarity of the chainmail and other details, fantastic painting!

Have to agree and what a picture from the Prof. Perfect balance of light and dark masterly portrayed
