Some really nice paint jobs as usual but for me it has to be Dr Grants converted mounted Radagast - really nice work bro.

While it makes for a simpler count, the current voting system is a torture as I find myself debating very hard on which is the best in my opinion and I feel a cad and an absolute bounder (to be polite) not to able to recognise any of the other outstanding efforts with some sort of 2nd and 3rd place votes. Some really fantastic stuff - very well done guys!

I was stuck between MMS and Rognarr, but, for me, in the end, MMS just edged it

Hard choice, in the end it came down to Dr Grant for the great conversion job.
Brilliant work from everyone, really mean that.

MMS is the stand out one for me due to the awesome painting. Rognarr is a close second, which I must say is great to see, your painting has come so far so quickly.

I've voted for Valpas's entry. Despite using a very limited palette all of the details are clear and the overall effect is lovely.

It's Dr Grant's mounted Radagast for me. It's a great conversion.

Greendragon steals my vote.

Loving the darker colour palette there Steve!

A real tough one this month but I ended up choosing between MMS and Valpas with Valpas coming out on top. The decider in the end was that I thought Gandalf's base seems a little too much and took away from the miniature though good job to all the entrants, superb work buy all :yay:

Some great work here guys. Dr. Grant's Radgast was a stand out mention, but I think MMS just takes it for me.

Tough choice, yet again. Tied between MMS, Rognar, and Dr Grant.
MMS wins this one for me but it was a close call!

Wow, this really is a tough competition this time. Lovely paintjobs and conversion to see here. I indeed needed 3 days to decide what to vote for: in the end it was Valpas, but it's not a good feeling to give no points to MMS or Dr Grant, who have done a great job as well. Maybe we should really think about a possibility to vote for more than one?

Also I want to thank all who voted for me or thought about giving me their vote! It feels great to get so much positive feedback! Esp. since it's my first NMM mini :)

Hard choice between a handful of prime choices. Vote went to my countryman, Pasi, by the tried and true method of rolling a die and picking the result I wished it the most to give. :)
