Wow, there is some truly fabulous work on show here (not including my humble offerings in that statement!).
But very much inspiring and motivating me to keep on pushing my painting ability

Back in the 1980s I had a friend who painted eyeballs on 6mm figures; every figure in the army and checkable with a magnifier.  Some people are brilliant.

I'm with you on that, Andy !

I used to end up with a blinding headache when there were just the six (?) of us doing the marking.
Much prefer the new method. ;)......But it's still going to hard to choose...Stunning stuff there already.

Cheers - Phil :)

I think it's a shortage at Vallejo's end sadly so could be Covid related.  Our UK supplier has just had a massive delivery come in but there's about a dozen colours missing from it, including white!  I'm trying to find out when they're expecting another restock so hopefully it's not far away.

Might have to resort to GW (wash my mouth out) ... I heard that their sloth-belly white is pretty good  :'(

There is some cracking entries in that Open Army section ... I think it will be a tough choice for the judges this year.
