What about Swashbucklers and/or Texians, just a thought.........not like I've got any on the go or anything  ::)

Swashbucklers is perhaps a theme broad enough, Texians are not, IMO.

 lol Busted  :D

How about having 'scale, as a theme. A particular scale could be randomly chosen for that bonus round eg. 1/1200, 6mm, 40mm etc.

'What I bought in the LAF bazaar'

This might encourage painting of some lead.  :)

I think that's Texist discrimination   ;)

Ideas for themed rounds - let's see. From the list of themes that have been suggested in the past, but never used, here's what I like, and the reasons why.

Civil War - this is a great one - covers lots of periods, allows for an easy way to have two opposing sides in the entry, and can be interpreted in some interesting ways, probably.
Creatures - I like this one a lot. You could have two opposing gangs of creatures, or a gang of creatures and a gang of hunters. A good opportunity to paint fur/scales/hide too. Could be fun!
Hats - a nice whimsical theme.
HQ group - HQ groups are often the ones that army painters give more time and attention, which would be perfect for the LPL, which has at its heart the idea that it's a good way to reduce the lead mountain.
Literature - we did movies last year, so why not literature this year? Plus, I teach literature, so I have to throw my hat in the ring for this one.
Mercenaries - my favourite, I think. LOTS of scope - many different periods are possible with it, too, which I think is important for LPL.
Cops and Robbers - what's not to like?

Looking forward to seeing what rounds we get!

That was mine, wasn't it? Are extra points available for suggesting the chosen theme?  lol

How about "fractured fairy tales?"

Taking a nursery rhyme or fairy tale in a "different" or twisted direction or interpretation.

Must say I like all of Hawkeye's suggestions above.

"Moustache" as a theme also amuses me, for some reason.

At a first glance, "Moustache" doesn't sound very challenging. How do you propose to make it so?

Not challenging? I'm rubbish at painting moustaches. I'd go for 'baldies' as a theme any day!  :D ;)
