Seems ages since I last did one of these, but it’s probably only about a week or so. Entries from the regulars are a constant with, pleasingly, more of the more infrequent contributors also coming out of the woodwork.

In no particular order, today we have:

• Joe McGinn with a group of Light Dragoons

• All for one and one for all from Sapper: Mousquetaires de la Garde and some Swedes from Sapper

• Matt Slade has more WOR

• Steve Burt sends in more Assyrians: archers and another chariot

• The first of two Andrews: Andy Duffell is in the dark (ages).

• Andy Helliwell has a submission in three different scales

• Mervyn is sick of Napoleonics, so tries some pilgrims instead

• There’s a similar entry from John de Terre-Neuve: all sorts of periods and scales

• The Hat is back: Lloyd Bowler has some tiny forts to display

• And last, but by no means least, Mr Plowman has zombies

As usual, clicking on the name of the person in the list above will take you straight to that person’s gallery (opens in a new window).

We’re into the final quarter now, so I expect to see you all grabbing brush and camera and submitting away. Still plenty of no-shows so far this year: come on, you can manage at least one before now and Christmas!

To inspire you, here are today’s pictures:
