Doing a new model for this one and it is progressing nicely. I think I have most of the major conversion work done, but will see where I am in the morning after I've filed and sanded the putty filler. This is fun and exciting, and it is also dictating what army i will be doing in this years GBnUIT Tournament. As it is a conversion project, I will do a "How I Did It" after the contest is over, but this one is not near the work required on some of the others, but is one that's been in the queue waiting it's turn - this contest just brought it to the top.

Is there a prize for the best diorama?

It would depend on what kind of diorama?  If it is a small base then it can go in the 'Single Base' category, or if there are small numbers of figures then you could put it in the 'Foot' or 'Cavalry' categories.  If it is a big base or a lot of figures then it would need to go in the 'Army' category.

Hedging my bets; can I label it "Sherwood Foresters in a bush war"?   :D





Best entry so far, even if I do say so myself.

I have finished my 1695 French army using the fabulous LOA range, and I am halfway through the allies.
Have not been able to reduce the photos on my IPad enough to load on here.

How does emailing them through work?
Do I have to create a post first?

Cheers, Bryan

If you don't have any image hosting accounts (Flickr, Imgur, etc) or a blog/Facebook page, then you can email them over to us here (leon @ pendraken .co .uk) and I can upload them to our Flickr account for you.  You would then create your entry post and I'll edit the pictures in for you.

I've got those now, they'd gone to the old email address.  I'll get them sorted out and uploaded for you on Wednesday.

Best Treant army goes to FSN!
I hope you realise I'm going to count that as a half vote?    :D


Actually I may have another entry - Stonewall ... well just stone wall actually.

Maybe not.

They're not as good as my bush.


I'm slightly worried that I'm still the only entrant. That means that what's coming is going to be really, really, REALLY good.
