We have some more galleries opened this week, and the second or even third submissions from some of the early birds.

Opening her score for this year, Ashley submitted some sci-fi infantry. Ashley has entered six of the last eight year’s of Challenge, with a very genteel average of 171 points per year.

Also new into bat this year is Carole, who began this year’s Challenge campaign with some WW2 Soviets…a whole platoon of them in fact. Carole has been present in each of the eight year’s that the Challenge has run, with a very strong average score of 1,553 per year.

Our third re-starter is Stumpy: a prolific re-baser of already-painted figures (an achievement in itself given how much most people detest basing). Stumpy is also an eight year veteran of the Challenge, with an average score of 2,106.

Finally we have John Emmett, who has been with the Challenge for the last three years. His first entry includes, but is not limited to, an entry from last year that I missed. Over the last three year’s John has amassed an average score of 893 points, and I recommend a visit to his galleries to see his work.

On top of the above, we have another entry from Lloyd this week (some weird looking aliens from Khurasan).

As always, do visit the individual galleries on show: plenty of inspiration to be had.
