Mine's in, with 4 minutes to spare! Apologies for the (literally!) last minute entry - I've been absurdly busy this week.

Bloooooooooody hell....... it's a big un!

Are there any other painting comps of this magnitude?  Potentially, that's (quick bit of math) more than 4000 minis being shown.   :o

Wow!   o_o

Certainly going to be one heck'va competition this year... lots of eye candy and lots of fun.

Now on a serious note.

On the accounting side of things, you can rest assured that I will do the best I can to be as accurate as possible. With luck I will have the good Captain look over my math before posting the Leaderboards.

But you all have to understand that I will be doing this essentially manually.  So there is great scope for error.  I highly encourage all participants to check their scores to ensure accuracy.  If there is any problem, please PM me, I will recheck the math, make any corrections, and if necessary post a new leaderboard.

Good luck to everybody!

Can't wait to see the photos!   ;D

So that's why I took a rivet in the chest... I suppose it was a mistake to announce the competition at TGN.
