orctrader = those are super nice; colors are crisp/clean, based in theme - you should have saved those so they could be entered.

Wonderful!  I'm quite excited about this again this year.  I'm happy with the somewhat simpler format and rules...they will make my photo editing a bit easier/faster....and since I'm always doing that at 3am on the night/morning they are do....that is an important factor for me... ;D

...now to figure out what to do for Round 10.... ???

Thanks to Prof and the Staff for putting this on yet again....the best painting League on the interwebs!

Cheers,

Blue

I've not taken part, in this before, I haven't even been on this forum for ages, but I'm quite excited about taking part. The rules seem fine to me, as some people have pointed out it's only a bit of fun.

The rules look totally fine by me, they should level the field again. Reducing figure amounts for rounds 5 and 10 in light of the new photo rules makes sense too.

Still not sure if I have time to do it ???

I think I may take the plunge this year.

I'd like the feedback, if nothing else.

They were in the Season 6:

Yes, they were, but it's always a joy to see them again! Thanks for this very good example of what the League is all about, Orctrader. And I like this year's ruleset.

I’m in (well, hopefully). My current contract at the museum ends in mid-march. I’m likely to be unemployed by the time the LPL is running… which should give me plenty of time to paint and take pictures… ;D

Hopefully I'll have the time to take part again.  I've got some unpainted figures for round 1, but nothing for the other bonus rounds, so I'll just forego the bonuses for those.

Now, where were those damn brushes......

Thanks.   :)

As others have already pointed out, these were past entry. 
Painting was "quick."
Bases were "simple"
Photography was "fast."  (In the original entry, as rules permitted at the time, added "collage" and close-ups.  This takes much longer. All that cutting/pasting digital fiddling about.   ;D.)

Greetings,

aah so grat to be back .. some

an LPL.. again ... at last  ;D

I like the rules, I've improved my photography, I would have liked getting paint on some WW1 minis
but as my exams are in the first may week, I will decline again entering the LPL this year.
BUT next year will be different  >:( ;)

Anyway, good luck to the fabled fifties. I'm sure I will get buckets of eye-candy
Thank you
