And again a duel has ended.
A shame for the quality of the pictures of the second entry, but its the fun of painting and dueling here!
The winner is Sho who was up against Deon.

I would like to thank both of you for dueling, and big respect of doing this in 18 mm!
Congrats to Sho, and I believe there will be another duel in the future between the two of you :mrgreen:

Thanks for the (few) voters!

Now the next duel can be sent to the welknown mailadres ;-)

congrats to the winner. good painting both, though a word of advice at Deon: if you have MACRO on your photographer, usual it takes a lot sharper pictures. :thumbup:

I think too, that this was an unfair duel because of lack of proper camera. Deon wrote me, that he need a new camera.. but obviously he did'nt have them ontime.
We must repeat duel sometime, after purchase the new camera.

Great work from Sho as expected. Yes, my camera died and I had to use HTC phone instead ( my lighting died too :( ) but I still think Sho's painting is better and is a well deserved winner. No matter, I will be back ;)

Thanks for voting all
