The Lead Painters League Season 10 - General Discussion (Round 11 started)

[von Lucky]

You have no idea. Since one member picked up Peter Pig's 'Hammerin' Iron' at Cancon in January riverboat affection has spread like scurvy through the club.

Round 9 started, chaps

There are 11 roubda this year?! I missed that...  How come?

[dbsubashi]

Because the LPL is awesome Hammers!

Actually because it is the 10th Anniversary season, so we all get an extra round of tasty tasty goodness.

YES, YOU CAN!!!

Just contributed my 10th entry, you can do too! One more round to go after this - start painting tonight and you´ll have six more sleepless nights to paint through: That eleventh has to be a MONUMENTAL entry!!!

[mikedemana]

That eleventh has to be a MONUMENTAL entry!!!

Thanks for the words of encouragement, Michi. My thought, though, is to do a shout-out to the Professor's amazing run of entries with his hordes of newly-painted miniatures for this season. I would put scads of figs in there for a really cool scene I have in my mind. I'd be losing the "New" bonus, though. So, yes, I'll submit a Round 11, but it may be the only one of my season that doesn't qualify for the new bonus...

Wimping out...or no?

Mike, it's a tall order to turn in 10 rounds, never mind 11. It's not wimping out. I'm sure whatever you present will look great as ever. I would personally love to see your entire native American assembly from this LPL. Well, maybe in due course 

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Round 10 started, best of luck!

[AWu]

This is an Insmouth round!

Thanks, Cap'n. You're reading my mind...

Didn't get my planned round 11 entry done in time, so I pulled out some stuff I painted last year. So in all I used 4 older teams of miniatures (touching up two of those sets this year), and 7 completely new teams.

I just did a break down of the new miniatures I painted in 2016 for the LPL:

x47 28mm miniatures
x1 28mm cannon
x2 28mm horses
x5 1/72 aircraft
x45 15mm cavalry

Wow. Coming in the bottom group doesn't seem so bad now.

Thanks Alex for running this (and painting some lovely entries yourself!).

[Timbor]

Great numbers, there Von Lucky!  I shall have to count what I have painted too...

Just submitted Round 11! What a long week,

Well done! I counted 96 28mm miniatures I painted for LPL10 that you saw, 5 which were retracted in round 2 and 16 you never saw, because I prefered to contribute substitutes -that´s a total of 117. Thank you all for the help of shrinking my lead pile and to the Prof. for a big, big show by both his own entries and showing us all the eye candy from the contributing contestants. I really appreciate to be part of this great community!
