What with Salute and work and training and all that, I didn’t get a chance to update the Challenge last week: a minor disaster as everyone suddenly got very active with their brushes!

As a result, we have a colossal update this week, with three-figure scores from lots of people.

So, in no particular order, we have:

• Matt Slade warms up with some Gnolls and archers, and then moves into overdrive with an entire 8th Army platoon. A huge update from the master!

• Carole takes a break from the Renaissance to rush a Sharp Practice company into action

• Mervyn has forgotten the way to his painting table, but manages seven cowboys and some siege equipment

• There’s a bit of a mix from Travis: WW2 Pioneers, scorpions and a necromancer, and the last of the orcs…and, to quote Boromir himself (assume Sheffield accent) “they have a cave troll”

• A marvelous collection of WW2 canal terrain from John Emmett

• Andy Duffell has gone sci-fi

• Chris Stoesen builds and paints some more 15mm houses

• More Sugar Island campaign figures from Mr Luther (there are now some pictures in the gallery as well)

• A huge 10mm DAK entry from Sapper

• Chris Cornwell has had a good month: Dacians et al.

• Lots of lovely SP figures from Joe McGinn

• The first entry of the year from John Haines: Victorians miscreants, lots of them

• The usual humungus entry from The Hat. Lloyd has sent in a huge 6mm ACW army plus more Cruel Seas boats.

• And last, but by no means least, Andrew Helliwell has some more 15mm SYW Prussians for us to admire.

The Scorecard is updated (including last update’s update)…and, as usual, clicking on the name of the people above takes you straight to their gallery (opens in a new window). Highly recommended, as there are some great paint jobs to see.

Here’s a selection to whet the whistle:

Keep the entries coming!
