As the good Captain and the good Admiral both are “out of office”, I have been asked to perform the closing ceremony of this year’s LPL. We’d give you the leaderboard, they said, and we’d close the voting, so you just need to step to the front of the stage and make your speech. Sure, I said, I’d be happy to do that as it gives me the chance to say thank you to both guys for running the league. Cheers, guys, amazing performance from both of you, you worked together as a very well attuned team and we all much appreciate your efforts! Also, I’d like to thank to Westfalia Chris for his excellent work on further developing and maintaining of the magical Excel spread sheet with all the lists, points, pairings, leaderboard and so on.

Well, another year, another LPL, another race. 38 members, more than 300 scenes, goodness knows how many painted miniatures, I really didn’t count them and in the case that someone did, please don’t hesitate to tell us :) Anyways, I just want to say thank you to all participants for taking on this burden again and for keeping posting new teams from week to week. It’s great to see that LPL spirit doesn’t die and that we again did manage to get together a great amount of people ready to fight through the ten weeks.

And not to forget another very important part of the race, all the voters, coming week for week and giving their votes to the entries and keeping alive the show.  Thanks, guys, we appreciate every single vote of you!

And now let’s have a look at the triad of winners of Lead Painters League 11.

Third place goes to the undisputed master of free-hand painting, the brilliant Neldoreth! His ability to deliver loads of beautifully painted shields again and again was absolutely astonishing :) Top notch work, Joe!



Second place goes to the man with the most beautiful diorama quality scenes in this season, the marvelous Lt.Hazel! He displayed not only a gorgeous combination of first class painting skills but also an unmatched great sense of perspective and scenery setting. Well done, Jan!



First place goes to one of the LAF and LPL old hands, our global moderator and this time a global winner, the fabulous Captain Blood! Perfection is the word that strikes my mind when I’m trying to define the quality of his work. Everything on his scenes is right, the painting, the scenery, the highlights, the contrasts, the choice of figures and dozens of other small things and details. Virtuosic work, Richard!



Well and now that the winners are named I would like to present the very last leaderboard of the Season Eleven, prepared and sent to me by Admiral Benbow before he had left “the office“. But first I officially declare the eleventh season of the LPL concluded! I am looking forward to Season Twelve and I hope to meet you again next year on this board.

Congrats to all! As the first LPL I've had the pleasure of voting in, I've thoroughly enjoyed browsing the entries and will miss voting on Sunday evenings while I put the kids to bed. I suppose I can console myself with going through previous years.


As well as the quality and variety of entries, what struck me most was how difficult it was to choose between entries sometimes.

Thanks to the organizers for all the work running the LPL, and congrats to the winners.

There were some highly decorative shields in the entries of the top three leaderboard positions :)

Fix!

Er, I mean Well done, Captain. And everyone else who put in the hard yards. It's a real slog, I know. Once was enough for me, but I'm mighty glad others don't feel the same way, as the LPL season is always a great time of year for LAF. :)
