A very difficult choice
2 superb entries

Both superb entries.

I looked at the photos before reading who had done each, but you can tell one of Blackwolf's photos as soon as you see it, that awesome and very distinctive cast to the light.

The horsemen are great, very clean with nice bases. Moving the figure case out of the background would have helped, mind you.

Cheers chaps for the kind words,and to Old Coast for a tough first round :)

The figures are Statuesque Miniatures.

The Landie is a toy as is the Mini Cooper (get a Landrover Thansants,perfect for a family with dogs and a classic to boot :)).

A tough choice, I really like the Sepia look of Blackwolfs entries, but the colourfull Rohirrim give very good Resitance (pun intended :p)

As always a nice backdrop complements good paintings skills very well and is (sadly) the only thing lacking a bit with the Rohirrim.
Why aim for gold if you can get lead?

I think they are Statuesque Miniatures?

Thanks again chaps :) Funny how one's work becomes recognisable ;)

Anyone notice the poster on the building? It's a women's land army recruitment poster from WWII :)

See this is why I love the LPL: two completely different subjects painted in contrasting styles but both very frothworthy!  :-*

If my figures play a role all the better (love 'em, Guy)! lol
