So am I able to still sign up and compete?

Hello,
Not in this one new entrants were cut off a few weeks ago, the deadline for completion is in a couple of days. There will likely be two events coming up, the 'Lead Painter's League' and a non-competative 'painting club' for Fantasy I presume.

Chaps, ladies: the last day for entering your procect, march 10th, is approaching. I have had no luck with the LAf-domain email adress so I've created on on my own webserver which I'd like you to use:

bsc2019@tsome.com

I appologize to those who have already sent your jpegs to the previous adress and ask you to resend your pictures.

Hammers, a quick question about the final photo. Are we allowed to include other items of terrain already complete as a 'backdrop' or is the photo to have only the entry in it?

Yes, we want eye candy.

Lets say the following LPL rules apply:

5. Team Photographs

You should submit a single photograph of the figures in the team, which may NOT be a collage or composite of individual images.

The maximum image dimensions are 1000 pixels wide by 1000 pixels high. The maximum file size is 1Mb (due to technical limitations and to reduce load time for slower internet connections).

You may NOT use any kind of digital manipulation except for basic image correction to white balance, colour balance, sharpness, brightness and contrast.

The following modifications are expressly FORBIDDEN:
• Any added text
• Any special effects (e.g. glow effects, artificial shadows, coloured outlines)
• Additional close-ups
• Alternative viewing angles
• Digitally-added background imagery
• Digital removal of base edges, addition of smoke, flames, etc
• Any kind of frames
The above list is NOT comprehensive. In short, any modification that goes beyond making the picture representative of the actual figures (see above) is not allowed.

6. Backgrounds

Your backdrop may be a single colour or gradient, or you may use physical terrain pieces to provide a scenic backdrop for your miniatures.
You may not use a photograph as a backdrop, nor any form of illustration or painting portraying woods, hills, sky etc.
Any terrain must be in the photo from the start (i.e. you must photograph the figures in front of it). You may not digitally add in a background image at a later point.

Brill, thank you

People, to manage expectations I should probably tell you that I will need a few days after Sunday 10th to arrange and post the entries, perhaps even till the weekend. I have a rather unpleasant docotrs appointment the coming week which will quite possibly, and literally, drain me. I will lewt you know.

May have time to resend it now

Good luck everyone!
