Well,
I'm very pleased. We're almost a month into the Challenge and I think
things are moving along pretty smoothly. Over two thirds of our
participants have submitted entries and from these entries we've been
treated to loads of amazing miniatures - over 16,000 points worth. So I
extend a big 'Thank You' for all your enthusiasm, support and hard work.
On an administrative note, we have a new Challenger joining us. LeeH
is coming aboard, replacing StacyS who unfortunately can't continue due
to pressing family commitments. My best wishes go to Stacy in that
things go well, and I hope to see you join us in a future Challenge.
For those who don't know him, our new recruit Lee is known in the hobby blogosphere as Big Lee from Big Lee's Miniature Adventures.
He is also a charter member of that glamorous gaming group from
Gravesend: 'Postie's Rejects'. Lee will be joining 'Tamsin's Tuesday
Teamsters' and will be aiming for a 300 point target. Please join me in
welcoming Lee aboard!
As a final note, in regards to future Theme Round submissions, feel free to submit your work to me via email if you want to make sure nobody peaks before the 'big reveal'. It's not a necessity, but some people have asked if this can be accommodated and it is no problem at all.
Alright brush-jockeys, I'll return you back to our regular Saturday programming.

More work for Tamsin. (I am not sniggering honest... OK but just a little.)
ReplyDeleteWelcome aboard Lee. And very sorry to see Stacy go but hope to see her again next time.
Thanks for bringing me on board. Since you asked me I've been skipping around like an overexcited schoolboy! Its not a pretty sight and the family think I have finally cracked!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the Crazy 88, Lee!
DeleteI shall add him to the hallowed list of participants tonight and thought the black magic of spreadsheets his name shall appear upon the roll.
DeleteWith great fanfare, I dubb thee, Lee as participant number 89. So let it be typed in a comment, so let it be done.
Great news Lee! You seemed so despondent on your blog just the other day at not having joined us this year. I guess it was meant to happen!
DeleteIt seems that Lee has been entered twice - as #89 and also replacing Stacy at #76
DeleteLee - I think they knew you were cracked years ago ;)
DeletehI Lee... crack on then... you have Ray to catch up... oh that wont take long....
DeleteWelcome on board Lee. Now don't you have some painting to do;)
ReplyDeleteIn an ironic twist I'm away for the weekend with the wife and Daughter (its her Birthday). I spent a few hours yesterday doing some prep and I'll hit the ground running on Sunday evening.
DeleteWelcome to the madhouse Lee. Please take your seat in Zoo Class with the rest of the Rejects :)
ReplyDeleteGreat to see Lee back where he belongs. Hopefully we'll see Stacy next year if he's able. Cheers Peter
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update Lord C. and welcome to Big Lee!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the words of support. I'm looking forward to cracking on with lots of projects...just as soon as I get back from a weekend away with the family!! Great timing, but at least I have a day to ponder my strategy...and the exact nature of my points bomb. Well, I learned at the elbow of the ultimate sandbagger... No names mentioned Ray.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Lee - glad you're aboard. Will we see more of your excellent 6mm WWII North Africa stuff?
ReplyDeleteGreat to have you in Lee, now you can have an official score :-)

Welcome Lee!
ReplyDeleteWelcome aboard Lee. I sent my entry via email as I don't think I have access to posting on the theme round blog.
