The rewards and satisfaction are relative to the individual as well as the collective group as a whole.<br /><br />Enjoy your painting challenge Drew, as I am sure we all will ours.<br /><br />Cheers, Rossroma912https://www.blogger.com/profile/10874596915202957037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-26640721916065575992016-11-29T15:39:06.170-06:002016-11-29T15:39:06.170-06:00The Challenge is not all about big points, though ...The Challenge is not all about big points, though you will see some real big submissions but is all about encouraging you to increase your output. The challenge is full of friendly encouragement and not a small amount of good sport pokes to keep us all going. <br /><br />My output seems to drop each year but I have had more fun last year than any other so really looking forward to splashing some paint<br /><br />IanIanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17113835961977211021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-75900684026467349762016-11-29T11:57:04.679-06:002016-11-29T11:57:04.679-06:00I painted as a kid and a little bit as an adult, a...I painted as a kid and a little bit as an adult, although I've completed nothing so far in 2016. So, while I'm definitely out of my league here, I would still like to give it a go. I'm targeting 300 points, which may not sound like much but it's a big improvement on nothing. Looking forward to submitting some LOTR, Battletech, and maybe even Imperial Assault figures (if Santa is especially kind to me this year). -DrewScooby Drewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17974931863998212173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-1713695742662488682016-11-27T15:45:15.405-06:002016-11-27T15:45:15.405-06:00Haha, I'd love to see that!Haha, I'd love to see that!Curthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03202047917371080576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-41643584931736219912016-11-27T14:32:14.566-06:002016-11-27T14:32:14.566-06:00Doctor Campbell's Home for Deranged Painters, ...Doctor Campbell's Home for Deranged Painters, for example.Evan Hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18107866906860803155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-9595544146965789142016-11-27T13:50:08.077-06:002016-11-27T13:50:08.077-06:00Hi Ross, I'm also on my jack Jones,first time ...Hi Ross, I'm also on my jack Jones,first time doing this I'd be happy to join forces email me on caveadsum1471@yahoo.com if you want. <br />Best Iain caveadsum1471https://www.blogger.com/profile/02174163740406928172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-11900941034003670902016-11-26T12:57:32.780-06:002016-11-26T12:57:32.780-06:00Hi Byron,

It should be plausible or be able to be convincingly interpreted. :)<br /><br />The Terrain 'Home' theme should be a piece of terrain that can be interpreted as being some sort of home.<br /><br />I hope this helps.Curthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03202047917371080576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-20576071083129198112016-11-26T09:43:16.784-06:002016-11-26T09:43:16.784-06:00Curt, can we get a bit more of a description of wh...Curt, can we get a bit more of a description of what you are looking for in regards to the theme weeks? I ask as right now "east" and "west" could literally be anything. Meaning as an example, the "middle east" is east of Florida, but west of Japan, or east of Japan if you go around the globe. It could all be relative to your location, or perception. Meaning, as far as I can tell, I could do any figure I wanted (even sci-fi as it could be argued they are east or west of a relative point) for either of those weeks, as currently written.<br /><br />Also, "Terrain (home)", does that mean you want a home as terrain? Or that you want home made terrain?<br /><br />Hoping that clarification is coming in the start your engines email, but just making sure.<br /><br />ThanksByronMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11290492763955225660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-49465609426243951342016-11-26T03:12:48.975-06:002016-11-26T03:12:48.975-06:00Still looking for team member for the Challenge en...Still looking for team member for the Challenge entry figures.
