Nice one Will. At least a couple of categories I can tackle there with my current painting schedule.

Ace of Spades

Short one; where it says '...to 18th century' I guess that means '...including the 18th century' or '...up to 19th century',  correct?

Lemmey! Put your teeth back in! 
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

There is an historical argument that the Twentieth century should be described as a 'Short Century', 1912 to 1990, whereas the 18th Century should be a 'long-century' From 1688 to 1815!
But then, you end up with epochs, such as the Belle Epoch (1871-1914)
And the only decent epoch comes in an etched champagne bottle!

Sounds like the sort of verbal delirium that calls Australia a western country, or gets American teenagers to say thing like "No sex, only oral" and think they're making sense, or had an Italian poet label the door to Hell as being made by wisdom and love, or induced one of my Thai students to ask me if I wanted "noodles without noodles" at a street restaurant (come to think of it, a decade later she came up with "I'm not an atheist; I just don't believe in God").

I was just worried the 18th century would be left out when that is virtually the only period I painted in 10mm the past months  :D

Has it occurred to you that that may already have happened?


Also is it possible to get a "Best head-swap" category?
I know it's not painting as such but they do have to be painted after.
