Yes. As regulars of this event, it seems our duty and responsibility to drum up some attention among the general populace. Any ideas?

I'm very happy with my cart, but the Knights are indeed great looking! I would never fault anyone for voting for them. And win or lose, the process and finished project is the real goal, as I see it.😊

Thanks, Unas the slayer! I already voted, so I can guess who The Sun King voted for... But as you say, second place assured!😁

I did it! I present... Master at Arms on cart Quite a race to finish today, but I think it turned out ok. I like the Huscarl look the Wight has got going on.😊

Some assembly required... But it is getting closer! Assembly line style. Final effort this weekend, to get this all together. 😊

Progress has been slow lately, so hopefully posting a quick wip will spur me on... Worth a shot, anyway. Here are some constituent parts under way. The skeleton will get some greenstuff rags, and will lead the "horse". The "ironclad" warrior will stand on the cart, along with a plethora of...

Would it be an idea to throw an invitation out in a few general threads, advertising the start of another painting competition? I don't know if people stop by here, unless they're specifically looking for the start of a new one (like I do 😊).

I scoured the bits box, came up with some stuff. The idea is a "horse"-drawn cart loaded with weapons and shields for my grave guard, who are armed with great weapons. To symbolise the ability to switch weapons when on the march. The main guy (all armored up and ready to go) will be a stranded...

I've been meaning to make a sort of unit filler for my grave guard... This might be the best motivator to get it done, provided I armour them up to the max, I presume!

Best painted army, and a spot in the hall of infamy!😁 Well deserved, I say. Congratulations again.

Yeah, congrats! That is a haunting paintjob, The Sun King.

Just googled that, I see what you're saying!😊

I'll admit, it is a little larger than I first envisioned it. 😁 But it kinda gives a Final Fantasy/anime vibe, that I'm not displeased with. Biggest regret is not having time to paint it better. Maybe I'll go back and upgrade it later (he said for the umpteenth time).

My entry. Very old school, and a bit of a slap-dash paintjob due to very limited time available. But hey, he's here! First model I've painted in months. Also, damn you guys for making me want some of the new hotness, I don't even play army games anymore!😆

I got a little conversion done! A Vampire with a sword like that, I figure someone is bound to die by it... At least that was always the case back in 6th edition, when great weapon was standard issue for my vamps. I guess this old school model is sort of an homage to good old times.😊 Anyway, a...

Real life stealing all my hobby time! No diorama, I'm afraid, but I do have an old school vampire I could give a big-@$$ sword. Deadline for now is August 22nd, right?

As mentioned, I downloaded some free rules. It's a game called Ravenfeast, I haven't tried it yet but it should be fairly simple and has rules for shield wall. I'll happily send you the rules, or you can go to Ravenfeast.com and have a look around. If you do try them out, feel free to share any...

I've been eyeing those victrix models for some time! I downloaded some free rules via Little Wars TV, to fight skirmishes with vikings. And I can use them for warbands in some fantasy skirmish games as well, so it might be my gateway into historicals.😁 Ash Barker has videos of the Game of...

It's a good point, and I have looked at Chain of Command and others, for quick skirmishes like that. But with limited hobby time and cash, I have gravitated towards fantasy because I can have both skirmishes and big battles with the same models. I started with fantasy in my teens and just stayed...

For myself, I reckon it has something to do with the freedom of fantasy and/or imaginary settings. World- and story-building i freeform. In a historical setting I'd have a harder time freeing myself from how history unfolded, who fought who, when and who won?
