[Prof.Witchheimer]

[BlackStatic]

Wow! two awesome entries.
Lt. Hazel, is there any way we could coax ur skin recipe out of u?

[Lt. Hazel]

For the skin I used VGC Dark Fleshtone - VGC Parasite Brown - VMC Sunny Skintone. Undercoat is black  :mrgreen:

[BlackStatic]

Cheers

[Malamute]

another tough call

[Lurch]

Yes a though choice for me too.
The Kings realy look great.

Lt. Hazel, one more where your own paint/color style becomes more visible.
The Slaver look realy dangerous and mean.

Good entries both!

[Darren]

It's really a tough call on these.

As a side note, can I ask who makes the apes and baboons?

[Uncle Mike]

Gonna hafta go with monkeys...I love monkeys. :love:

...both well done entries but monkeys win for me every time!

[Lt. Hazel]

It´s the same hut..now you know WHAT the Slavers defend  ::

The Baboons are definately Obelisk I have some of those and I suspect so are the apes

[Hammers]

Both are Obelisk. I adore the baboons and bought tht set some time ago. Unfortunately the apes do not quite pull it off for me. Distorted proportions somehow.

Hhm, Hammers, what do you mean exactly? Distorted proportions of the sculpts? Of the photo?

Here are some more pics of the apes: http://www.mini-universe.de/Darkest%20Africa/index.html

Just asking cause I always try to develop my photographic skills ...  

[DFlynSqrl]

Oh my, that's a tough choice.  Excellent work by both of you.

The bases for the Kings of the Jungle finally won me over.

I think he means the figures, its the heads the upper and lower mouth parts (would they be lips??) are too big for realistic apes and make the head look small. I still like them though very menacing :mrgreen:

Nothing wrong with the painting, mate, it is stellar. I am thinking about the miniatures. A gorilla in my mind is much stockier.
