The sun is shining and it looks like being a glorious day, despite the fact that four inches of snow are apparently on the way.

But we don't care: not whilst there are figures to paint. Being snowed in has its advantages...

Today's entries into this year's TooFatLardies Painting Challenge are as follows:

Matt Slade with some wonderful 7TV robots, Avians and aliens, and Napoleonic casualty markers
John Haines attempts to keep Mrs May happy with three new houses...and some British AWI Dragoons!
More pyrates from Mr Burt
A teeny tiny entry from Mr Stoesen: stacked muskets
Treadhead has been a very naughty boy: the Monty Python Spanish Inquisition set and some Undead
It's Star Wars time for Chris Kay
Sapper strikes back with some French Dragoons
Travis Hiett adds to his WW2 Japanese force for Chain of Command in 28mm with some support weapons
Mervyn has been preparing for a 20mm imaginations campaign, and recycling old skirting boards into flight stands
And last but by no means least, Sapper has a jumbo entry: eight Ghaznavid elephants
