So apologies for the lack of posts over the last few days: I've been away. Nice, however, to get back to an in-box full of entries into this year's painting challenge.

So, in no particular order, we have:

• Matt Slade with a great 28mm prison wagon
• Mr Davies with a mix of 28mm and 6mm figures
• Carole continues her foray into Imagi-nations with light troops for her Bordurians
• Chris Stoesen pops in a building and some trees
• I am Bruce returns with a fistful of Soviets
• Mr Plowman goes large
• and last but not least, Andrew Helliwell continues to expand his Wars of the Roses collection

Today's pics are from Messrs Slade, Plowman and Helliwell...
