To the esteemed personage known on these forum pages as Bodvoc,

I hereby submit my application to challenge you in a painting duel.

My suggestions for formal categories are:-


ACW

or

Fantasy (I can let you have some if you've none spare)

As I offered choice of category, you may choose the figure size  ;D

I humbly suggest an easy submission guide - It being anything or everything, as large or small in quantity as we, individually, choose.

This being a friendly side-competition between ourselves, the timing coinciding with the 2017 edition of the Pendraken Painting Competition. Any submissions, in this our own challenge, being still eligible to entry in the proper competition (so, therefor, being governed by that competition's entry rules), and our own painting challenge being offered up for judging by the members of the forum through Public Vote.

- PS. Shall we see if we can talk Stig Kelly into taking part, then all three members of The Old Guard Wargames Group represented on the Forum are involved?

I require your acceptance (or decline) of this challenge, sir, post-haste!

Roy  ;)

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Sorry to say, but at this point I'm not sure if we'll be having a 2017 Painting Comp...  :(  With it being our 25th Anniversary year we've got some other things planned, so we were going to give the painting competition a year off and run it again in 2018.  It also gives me chance to find some new prize sponsors, as I've exhausted most avenues already!

So no chance to be humiliated again this year? Dang! :D
Encumbered by Idjits, we pressed on

Roy

Fair enough.  :)

Challenge, if accepted, can be placed for 'judgement by our equals' as and when the painting is completed by all parties.

Its only a bit of fun.

That's much more frightening than popcorn-eating rabbits! Your version might decide to eat the kids as well, if the rabbits weren't tasty enough....
