Brutal decision, I say. However, "The Creature" is my favourite "man-sized monster movie" ever, so my vote is cast.

Ahhh, that's a tough one! Nearly identical painting styles, very nice execution and terrain settings.  :love:

In the end I rolled a dice.  :lol:

I love those Copplestone Conquistadores, besides it's one of my favorite periods for historical wargaming. Thus I know and appreciate the colourful appearance of landsknechts and the like. But these ones for me look a bit too candy-coloured.
So I had to vote for Grimm's entry, which is a really nice paintjob, too. The clapperboard is very cool!

Since I played with this film crew at Tactica on Grimm's legendary Lost World table the decision was easy ...  :mrgreen:

I voted but ....

Congratulations to you both.
Both are very outstanding entries. Love them both, sorry, but you can only vote once. So, the vote finally went to the period and not to the painted minis.

Hope that there will be a second chance
