I really liked your entry. It's a great idea and well done base!
Maya~
I like this one a lot. The idea and execution are both great.
Very cool looking set up, one thing bugs me tho', there's all those leaves, but not one tree.
I guess they are beyond the walls boundries.
Excellent piece Dargin, and different from the other entries, which are mostly rather less imaginative "girl with pumpkin" variations.
Good luck with the contest! :D
Thanks for the kind words guys.

I was thinking what would make a fall like scene as my kids where playing outside one day. They where doing chalk in the driveway and I was groaning on how my nieghbor's leaves where collecting all over my yard. This is where the leave idea came from.
looks great mate, very autumny :clap2:
Top job!
Do you have pics from other angles?
I don't have any here at work. But these are the ones I posted on the Reaper boards. I have since somewhat dismantled the scene but I can try and shoot some tonght of the base.

I see the attacker wasn't in the first pic. Looks like he is in trouble.
That was the trouble I had of shooting this. The piece is too large to show the details of each piece that I thought where photo werethy. The worm corpse is really cool but rather plan in the back which would hide all the free hand. And the sarcofogus is blocking the sword and helmet so this was definately a tough one for me to pull off.
I often like to incorperate the particular season with a terrain piece I'm working.
Your leaf scatter looks great, among the best I've seen. Excelent work.
Just wanted to thank anyone that voted for me in this contest. I took 3rd overall. Thanks all.
Are there links to the first and second place minis (yes I am lazy) :icon_wink:

Both of them are nice but I actually think your was better. If one of these had to beat you then I would have chose the one that got second place.
