Not for the painting competition as no more than 40 figures allowed!

Not if you enter a whole army as such.

I assume these include the TB lines?

Yep, those are allowed as well, no worries.

What about planes? 

What section does FI16 go in?

oooh! now that's an idea! I may very well paint some TB Line. Have not participated in any of the comps for many years now but if I can swing the time and painting enthusiasm I may very well chip in this year. Given all that has happened with Covid etc. it feels almost like a community project/thing.

A canoe is an early boat, a boat moves people from one place to another, so the Vehicle category?!  Or you could try it in the Open catagory instead.

Again, vehicle-ish or the Open category.

I have not painted anything for a year now, so this is a good reason to kickstart my mojo with codex Mendoza in one hand and some aztecs in another. Maybe brush needs to go somewhere too.
Pre 20th foot it is. 32 figs.

Can we use scenery, terrain, or backdrops in our photos? Or is the preference for a solid backdrop to showcase the figures?

I would have thought so, Jim.....In previous years folk have used backdrops and terrain...But I'd wait for Sir to confirm.

And as that was your first post...A very warm welcome to the forum.

Cheers - Phil.

Welcome Jim

Yep, no problem at all!

Hi JIm

Welcome on board Jim .

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone. You made me feel good today.   

The competition threads are now up so let's see what you've got!  Good luck everyone!

Hello and welcome Jim! 

Ok, having a senior moment (not been active on any forums for a long time).

How do I upload photos to forum threads.

Simple step by step would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Jon

If you've got the images hosted elsewhere (Flickr/Photobucket/Imgur/blog, etc) then you need the url (address) of the image and you can post it here.  Click the image icon while typing your message and you'll get a pair of image brackets that look like this: [ img ] [ /img ]   You need to put your image address in between those sets of brackets.

Alternatively if the image is small (128kb) you can upload it directly to your message by clicking the 'Additional Options' under the white box in your reply, and then attaching the image files.

Welcome to the forum, Jon.

Cheers - Phil.
