/Lots of entries this post as people rush to get in before the end of the month.
Please do make sure that you visit the individual galleries (navigate there in the bar, above), but here’s a taster:
TFL Painting Challenge: Last August Update
/Is it really the end of August already? Where has the year gone? It was my birthday recently as well: 55 years old…how did that happen?
But enough of the negative vibes, man, time for some positives: it’s another Painting Challenge update…and there are some really nice pieces of work on show this time. Check out the individual galleries, but here’s a taster:
TFL Painting Challenge: Another August Update
/Not much else going on at the moment wargaming-wise (although I have a big game this weekend) so I thought I’d update the Painting Challenge after only a week rather than the usual two.
Plenty to see even after only seven days, so do make sure you visit people’s individual galleries, but here’s a taster:
TFL Painting Challenge: 1st August Update
/The sun is finally shining, August actually now looks like August, and it’s time for another update to the TFL Painting Challenge.
Do please visit the individual galleries (you can do so from the NavBar, above) but here’s a taster to get you reaching for the paintbrushes yourselves:
TFL Painting Challenge: Final July Update
/What is happening with the weather at the moment? One moment it’s sunshine so hot that you can’t go out, the next it’s raining hard enough to drown an elephant!
Whatever it is, it’s excellent weather for painting minis, and that’s what many of you have been doing. Some lovely entries into the Challenge this week, so make sure you visit all the individual galleries to check them out.
In the meantime, here’s a selection to whet the whistle:
TFL Painting Challenge: Quick Update
/Things have slowed down a bit on the Painting Challenge front, with only six entries in the last week or so. Must be a combination of the summer weather and coming out of lockdown.
No matter, those who have submitted have been uploaded. Check out the individual galleries, but here’s a taster:
TFL Painting Challenge: Into the Second Half of 2021
/Not quite sure how this happened but we’re now into the second half of 2021 and therefore into the second half of the year’s TFL Painting Challenge.
It would have been quite a slow couple of weeks since the last update except for a truly colossal catch-up from Doug Melville, with his first entry of the year hitting over 2,300 points in one go! There’s some lovely work on display from him, so do make sure you visit his gallery.
There’s also a first entry of the year from Chris Stoesen, and entries from Ashley, Sapper, Travis, Mervyn, Carole, and Coop.
As above, do make sure you visit the individual galleries, but here’s a selection to whet your collective whistles:
Keep them coming!
TFL Painting Challenge: Probably the Last June Update
/A fairly quiet week this week, with just a steady trickle of entries coming in.
Please do visit the individual galleries, but here’s a selection of what people have submitted:
I’ll update the Scorecard when I have a moment!
TFL Painting Challenge: First June Update
/The Painting Challenge has been quite quiet of late. I’m hoping that’s because you’re all out either playing face-to-face games now that COVID restrictions have been partially lifted or out in the sun getting some Vitamin D!
Whatever the case for the rest of you, this week’s entrants have done their usual sterling jobs. I’d recommend a visit to the individual galleries, but here’s a taster:
The Scorecard is also now properly updated i.e. includes the scores from the last set of entries as well as today’s.
Keep up the good work everyone: we’re coming up to the half-way point in the year!
Last Painting Challenge Update of May
/Is it almost June already? Just where does the time go?
Here’s the last Painting Challenge update for May, although you’ll have to wait a few days for the Scoreboard to be updated.
Lots of excellent work on show: make sure you visit the individual galleries, but here’s a selection:
TFL Painting Challenge: The Next May Update
/Another great set of submissions for the painting challenge: I really have no idea how people are so productive!
Do visit the individual galleries to see everything, but here’s a selection to tickle your fancy!
Epic First Painting Challenge Update for May
/An absolutely colossal update today, with several big catch-up entries from several of the Challenge’s Big Guns: Matt, Lloyd, Andy and John.
Absolutely worth spending a bit of time in the individual galleries, but here’s a taster to be going on with:
Final Painting Challenge Update for April
/Yes, I know it’s a day late! Blame IT issues: sometimes my PC gets so clogged up using the office’s 365 that it forgets the more important things in life such as how to do the Painting Challenge!
A huge amount of entries this week, including some very fine work indeed. Do please visit the individual galleries, but here’s a selection to whet your whistle!
Some inspirational work there, and a special welcome to new entrant John: 196 points on the board already.
TFL Painting Challenge: Huge April Update
/It’s been a couple of weeks since the last Painting Challenge update, so loads of entries to add to the galleries.
There’s loads of lovely work on show, so do make sure you visit each person’s individual showcase, but here’s a selection for you to enjoy:
TFL Painting Challenge: First April Update
/A large numbers of entries from a small number of people today: definitely a monthly catch-up for some people.
Do go to the individual galleries, but here’s a selection of today’s submissions:
TFL Painting Challenge: An Overdue Update
/Apologies all, as it’s been a a couple of week’s since the last update and a few days since my last post: real world getting in the way of sensible things like gaming!
Actually, that’s not entirely true: a lot of my spare time has been spent finishing off my next scenario pack. Not one for a Lardy set of rules, but for For King & Parliament, the English Civil War version of To The Strongest.
Regular visitors will have seen all the ECW battle reports I’ve been posting on this site: they have been the playtest games for the supplement. A few details: 12 free-standing fictional scenarios for FK&P loosely grouped into a chronological campaign; similar format to my Lardy scenario packs; should be out later this week or perhaps next; price will be about a tenner.
Anyway, back to the Challenge. As usual, a good set of entries with some inspirational work. Check out the individual galleries (use the NavBar, above) but here’s a selection to whet your whistle:
TFL Painting Challenge: Second March Update
/Two week’s worth of entries today: and some very nice work indeed.
As always, please do visit the individual galleries (see the Nav Bar, above) but here’s a selection of what was submitted:
TFL Painting Challenge: First March Update
/This would have been the last February update, but Feb is a day-challenged month so today’s update falls into March!
Whatever the date, some lovely work being submitted today. As always, I recommend that you visit the individual galleries (access via the Nav bar, above) but, to whet your collective whistles, here’s a taster:
TFL Painting Challenge: Third February Update
/It’s raining outside, and the first coat on the bases of the artillery tows I’m painting are drying, so the perfect time to do a quick Painting Challenge update.
Plenty of entries despite the fact that only a week has gone by since the last update: lockdown is proving productive for many of you!
A special mention to Mr Plowman who, after a somewhat disappointing 16 points last year, bounces back with a 101 figure Dwarf army. Lovely work.
Visit the individual galleries, but here’s a taster of this week’s entries:
