I agree -- tough choice! The lawmen just jump out at you with vibrant colors. And then I looked at the Germans, and the individual details are incredible. The colonel's insignia, the realistic camo pattern...wow!

I finally made my choice, and my vote made it a dead tie. This will be a close one...ha, ha!

Two brilliant entries;  Bugsda's distinctive smooth, glowing painting vs Moiterei's stunning camo.  Such a difficult decision!  :?

The things I love most - the beard and moustache on Rooster J Cogburn, and the chipping on the left hand para's helmet. Lovely attention to detail in both entries. This is the LPL at its best.

Those western miniatures! The depth and vibrancy of colour, the smoothness of the shading and highlighting, the beautifully understated basing that allows the models to practically glow. Amazing.

Ok, so we are getting to the 'two of my favourite painters going head to head' part of the League are we? Dammit!
