Painting Competition Discussion thread!

My turn to play dim now. Is that three per category or three in total?

It'll be 3 per category, so you can choose your 3 favourite Vehicles, your 3 favourite 20th C. Foot, etc.

Where has d'hautpol been hiding all these years?  Beautiful work with beautiful figures!

Really excited to see so many WWI entries - I had no idea that 10mm WWI was so popular. I thought I was a bit of an oddity for going down that route. Can I ask what rulesets people have been using, assuming that these figures haven't just been painted up for the competition...

[Big Gazza]

Good luck to all who've entered, looking forward to seeing the results, there's plenty of fantastic entries. Good luck to all.

Forbes! Will you stop putting in blindingly good entries!

Hi Geiss Peter here.....our group uses Two Fat Lardies lf the Lord Spares Us rules. Originally written for brigade sized Middle East battles we have used them very successfully for Gallipoli and France 1914 games with some house rules added from the TFL forum and our own requirements. You can look back in the battle reports to see some of the games we have staged since around mid 2014.

To add to the WW1 theme l will be posting my entry for the painting comp latet today....good excuse to finish off some stuff l started months ago ☺

I use my 10mm WWI for Square Bashing - Eastern Front Russians, Austrians and Germans; Western Front Belgians and Germans, plus some help rom the Brits and French.

EVERY year.......The comment seems to get made......."The standard is better than ever"....Which tends to sound 'fake', and very condescending.

But it TRULY does get better & better.....I'm genuinely in awe of what's in the competition, this year.

Cheers - Phil

The entries are fantastic, and I don't think there's a single category with a clear "winner" to my mind.

Very hard decisions to make.

Some incredibly difficult choices to make, very soon !

But you are always sooooo decisive Phil
