Ah, the 'Victorian' round proved to be a real corker, with many imaginative entries ranging from steampunk ships to an indomitable ratcatcher plying his trade in the back lanes of London.
Again, it was another tight race with only one vote separating First and Second place and no more than a dozen pips between the other top 5 spots. Great stuff.
Here are the runners up:
AlanD's 'Flashman's Guide to International Diplomacy'
MartinN's 'Jack the Ripper'
IannickM's 'Monsieur la Mort'
ByronM's 'Steampunk Tinkerbell'
As for the finalists, I was fortunate enough to secure Third Place with my rendition of 'The Artful Dodger'.
BrianB took Second Place (and 50 bonus points) with his brilliantly SCULPTED AND PAINTED 'Pennyfarthing'.
...and in First Place we have the ever-talented MichaelA with his fantastic ensemble cast: 'Scotland Yard Company'
Michael, for your efforts you will get a 75 bonus points AND a gift certificate from Martin and Diane at Warbases. Congratulations Mr. Awdry, and thank you Martin and Diane for your generous and continued support of the Challenge!
Okay! This Sunday the bonus round theme is 'Myth' so participants make sure to get your submissions in by Saturday and visitors please come back and visit the gallery to see all of the fantastic entries from our maniacal painters. Paint On!
An excellent group of mini's and well done Michael on the win
