Well done FSN, keep up the good work

I understood your post perfectly :-B I also recognise most of the names :-B :-B

Having a 'French' army with no French units is entirely historic

My 6mm 'French' forces for 1812 are from the Second Support Army so include Westphalians, Saxons and Poles but no French ;)

Me as a Knight of the Garter

I can see you being given a knighthood, Ian.....But I want something lots better than Sir Muppet of The Wirral....That doesn't sound nearly as good as Lord Oik of Runcorn.

Come on...Help me, guys !

There are definitely at least a couple of "For services in (?)* painting Pendraken figures"... In my imaginary inbox.

Cheers - The Sad Twit :)

*....That doesn't sound right either.

Lemmey has to be a "Fastest Brush whilst retaining a high standard"?

I will modestly accept the "Most diverse projects started without actually finishing, using Pendraken figures and  a spreadsheet".

I'd like to offer Goat Major the "Confidence Snake" (as in Snakes and Ladders) award for "Showing pictures of beautifully painted horses whilst FSN's confidence was on the rise, making him realise how far he had to go."

I like that, lots, Ian !

From now on, you may add Lord Kermit of Birkenhead to your signature.  :-bd

Now....For the rest.... ;)

And there ARE a good few more I want to add. (For services rendered to the best 10mm miniatures company in the World.)

Nobby.....Just put Oik of the year, each time we get to January 1st......And you're absolutely right about Will. (Lemmey) He's one of those who have been overlooked for FAR too long !)...He was on my list, already. ;)

Keep the nominations coming ! :)

I'm trying to think of acronyms....That aren't rude...That are a bit like CBEs MBEs and OBEs..But have something to do with painting Pendraken figures.

Cheers - Phil. :)

FSN you have competition for the Started Projects.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little."
Franklin D. Roosevelt

On most started projects .... I have five 28mm figures, bought in GW's Hammersmith shop the day after it opened, which were going to be the start of a Laserburn collection that are still unfinished. Is the the longest ongoing started project?

I started counting unfinished projects and stopped counting after 48 - too depressing to continue.

Also, what counts as a project? Are my Early Hominids one project or are the Homo Sapiens, Homo Neanderthalensis, Homo Heidelbergensis, Homo Denisova and Homo Floresiensis tribes separate projects? If the latter I am even worse than I thought!!

Perhaps we should have Yearbook style "Least Likely To ...." attributions.

A few to start off:

Least Likely To Stay On Topic

Least Likely To Be Respectful To The Moderators

Least Likely To Complete A Project Started This Year

Least Likely To Win The Painting Competition

Least Likely To Avoid Physical Damage In The Course Of Wargaming Related Activities

I recently found some figures I was going to paint for my baby brother ... who is now 46.

I'll have you know, I've not spilled (What the blanks wrong with spilt.....you stupid , useless, illiterate server...or whatever you are...I can't wait until Leon dumps these twerps) any red stuff, from my fingers, for weeks.....

I really wish I hadn't said that.
