Hard luck Tsar  :(

You put in a perfectly good entry, and then the Prof lets rip with one of his big production numbers, and all bets are off... I've been there  ;)

The cowboys are great, but the Prof has surpassed himself again. He's even got himself hiding in the tree, unless I'm mistaken - genius! (And the rat is a triumph  lol) Lovely stuff.

Refreshing too, to see drab cultists! The red and green varieties get a bit boring after a while...

The Prof's "big production number" is fantastic, and I was similarly drawn to it.  But then I remembered some commentary from Season 1:

The only thing NOT acceptable as part of a team is any type of terrain, which may only be used as a "backdrop" for your entry photography.

So I tooked a closer look at the five members of the team themselves.  While the Prof's blacks and flesh are great, they are, afterall, only black and flesh.  The cowboys, with their vibrant colors and, let's face it, great paintjob, earned my vote.

But they are so incredibly clean!  Also, the LPL isn't only about painting, it is about showcasing models people haven't seen in a long time if at all.  There's a great diversity in models and themes and all should be celebrated.

yes you right, but it's an honor to be opposed to the Prof  :D
And thanks for comment about my cowboys  :)

Is the frog scratch built, it's really humourous? Both great entries.

Love the cultists, but I voted for the cowboys as I just like the lead better
