Well guys, this was the last duel of 2017, ended a year later...
And the most of the voters did vote wrong, because my entry did get only 6 votes...
Hahahaha, but since it is for fun I don't mind.
It is my thank you mr X contribution, for dueling a whole year, you done a great job.
And I am also very glad he will duel another year, so sorry guys but I don't give his name now.
A well deserved win this was, so my congratulations my friend!
And yes it was me who lost, so don't be to hard on me in the comments :P
If you think you can do better, there still are months left for 2018!!!

Congratulations Mr. X, a very fine piece of work.

Another duel where it was very difficult to choose between two excellent entries. so much so that, for me, it came down to a contest between the highlighting on Mr. X's hair and Remco's drumskin.

The drumskin just tipped the balance for me.

I like the figure and the paintjobs are fine as well. I am happy that we will have 12 duels more, but I am really curious: Who is Mr.X?

I liked the face of the first entry as well as the photograph. The green background worked well.

In contrast to susofrick, however, I prefer the drum of the second man. Good job by both painters, nice duel again.

I did vote on Mr X, I did I did! And now I have to buy Remco a HUGE icecream. Wonderful entries both, but the drumskin and the Christmas-reference did it for me.

No idea why I mixed up Graeme with Gunnar. Because both start with a G? I need to get more sleep...and send Remco more envelope ice cream, as pennance.
