You've still got two hours, man! Get it in...  ;)



We have a Warhammer tournament this weekend so I'm aferaid Braxandur something like fifteen minutes to pack his stuff and leave at the time of posting ;)

It's a shame though as I would have liked to see a fresh entry, that said, I believe he fared better at day one of the tournament than I did ;)

Calling on the wind
Let me see the banners fly

Sorry, sit, everyhting was already packed... my last post though was sent from the home of the beter half, while the little metal men were at the other side of the town....

First day of the tournament was a lot of fun though. I honestly start to like the 8th edition more and more every time I play a game. Next week there will be defenitly be a new entry!
Why aim for gold if you can get lead?

So Cap', what was the number of new entries for round 3...?

I have to say, there has been no drop-off in quality from round to round- If anything, people are stepping up their game as we go along. A lot of great entries and tough choices to make this round!

I have to agree! Where I thought it would get harder for peoples to maintain their high level of painting, it seems that week after week contestants are finding new ways and levels to add to their already fantastic entries!

This year LPL is absolutely amazing and I'm glad I'm part of it!

Please note that owing to certain other commitments this coming weekend, I won't be able to preload the matches on Saturday evening, so Round 4 of LPL5 is unlikely to go live until Sunday afternoon, UK time.

Would hate to think of you all clustered round your PC's from first thing Sunday morning, waiting in eager anticipation for... nothing to happen  ;)

Don't bother looking until mid-afternoon.

But yes, the deadline for replacement teams is still 12.00 GMT on Saturday.

Bah! You'll be telling us you consider 'real life' to be more important than toy soldiers next!

Not sure if I'll have a replacement team for the next round, unless I can think of something very quickly...
I told you so. You damned fools.

Well, the weekend is coming up so how is everyone doing? I've been building at my round 5 entry (on and off) for the past week and also painted one group of five. Today I also took and sent my picture for round four (but then again, I have a lot of free time at the moment) 8)

I've been putting the final highlights on Round 4 today....and cleaning flash and mold lines from round 5...getting them ready for priming.

We are heading to the in-laws for the weekend...I tried to explain to the wife that I NEEDED to stay home to get ahead of the curve with my figures...........she didn't buy it... :'(

Oh well...I guess that means more late nights and painting during my lunch break!

Cheers,

Blue
