The Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge

Welcome to the Painting Challenge. Here you will find the fabulous, fevered work of miniature painters from around the world. While participants come from every ethnicity, gender, age and nationality, they have three things in common: they love miniatures, they enjoy a supportive community, and they want to set themselves against the Challenge. This site features the current year's event along with the archives of past Painting Challenges. Enjoy your visit and remember to come back soon.

In Tearing Haste - The Wednesday Roundup

Greetings, Challengers and Challenge Fans!

Today's roundup must, of necessity, be brief.

My Good Lady Wife and I are off to Tasmania in a matter of mere hours, and while I am sorry to leave you all, I am absolutely certain there's a beer waiting at the IXL Hotel with my name on it.

We've packed the steamer trunk for cooler climes, since Sydney in summer has become a nightmarish hellscape of clammy humidity for anyone over 40 years old who might be carrying a teensy bit extra weight.

And what have we got today? We've got good guys and bad guys, knights and nomads, archers, elves, guards, all manner of submissions from the gnarled and knotty hands of our painters and figlimners.

So fasten your seat belts, make sure you have your tray table up (and your seat back in the full upright position), and enjoy a flight of fancy into the fervid imaginations of the ragtag band of misfits we call the Wednesday Warriors.
