or I think I'm gonna need a bigger table?
Well that went quick didn't it? I can't believe another Challenge is over and done with already? I could have carried on at that pace for another few weeks to be honest, I'm not sure my wife would agree though??
Thanks have gotta go to the Snow Lord Curt & Lady Sarah for putting up with all of our shenanigans over the past few months. Also thanks to Minion Stuart L, leader on the Saturday crew for all his hard work.
Thanks!!!!
I got a lot of figures painted, mostly 2mm of course, but sadly didn't manage to finish my Almansa 1707 project. Boooooo!
French
Spanish
Portuguese
English & Dutch
25's & 15's
And here are the figures out on the tabletop.
Hmm? I think I got my math wrong, the troops just fit on an 8 foot table!!!
I've included plain bases, in place where the missing units should be.
On the left are the French and Spanish and of course that puts the English, Dutch and Portuguese on the right.
The photos don't do the figures justice, so I made a small video, hope it works?
I wanna claim a victory though, I think I've painted the most figures in Challenge 13?
34 x 25mm figures
24 x 15mm figures
2mm
English, French & Dutch infantry 7680 figures
Portuguese & Spanish infantry 6528 figures
All Cavalry 2184 figures
Artillery 24 guns, 96 figures
Command figures 134 figures
For a total of 16646 2mm figures!!!
Here's my performance so far in all the Challenges
Challenge II 4940 points 1st
Challenge III 2586 points 4th
Challenge IV 1227 points 17th
Challenge V 691 points 37th
Challenge VI 681 points 36th
Challenge VII 1093 points 24th
Challenge VIII 662 points 40th
Challenge IX 2274 points 8th
Challenge X 1687 points 11th
Challenge XI 2260 points 8th
Challenge XII 2168 points 7th
Challenge XIII 1111 points 27th
Dunno what Holly did to my phone, I hope I don't really look like this???
That's a great haul of painted work Ray
ReplyDeleteCheers Neil!
DeleteGlad you had fun with the challenge and the pictures are a hoot! Brilliant. So much fun. Please tell Holly I think she did a great job. Very fun.
ReplyDeleteI thought you'd like them Whisk.
DeleteGreat job, Ray! Those are some crazy looking photos.
ReplyDeleteIndeed they are!
Deleteloved the 2mm project, the photos of you less so
ReplyDeleteHa!
DeleteGreat effort Ray. Did your daughter use the 'Frank Skinner' filter for those last couple of pictures?
ReplyDeleteHaha, don't know what she did tbh?
DeleteThat's enormously impressive in output even if exceedingly small in scale! Well done Ray! PS don't ask Holly to take your next passport photo!
ReplyDeleteLOL, I won't!
DeleteCongratulations Ray, superb performance, I have enjoyed seeing your progress. The 2mm video is really impressive, shows what can be done with the smallest of scales, mighty impressive!!!
ReplyDeleteCheers Donnie, I've been paid ting Lime a madman, trying to finish all the missing figures.
DeleteRay, an impressive horde, just goes to show what the discipline of the ‘challenge’ can achieve, good stuff. Looking forward to your next battle report with your newly adjusted camera phone :-)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to get the game in Norm, lucky Postie has a 14 foot table!
DeleteCongratulations! Great looking project!
ReplyDeleteCheers Michal.
DeleteRay, amazing work on all those figures. The camera has a fun house mirror in it.
ReplyDeleteOr is it just me?
DeleteLove the photo 🤣
ReplyDeleteCheers
DeleteHahaha. Her pictures are excellent, what you complaining about 😆. I look forward to seeing your Almansa game out on the table. Its going to be an EPIC battle to play.
ReplyDeleteEpic is the word Lee!
DeleteWow those little people take up a lot of table space…
ReplyDeleteAll the best. Aly
Cheers Aly, I wasn't expecting 8 foot? My math is terrible!
DeleteImpressive Ray, and all the photos look exactly like you, especially the last two!
ReplyDeleteCheeky bleeder!
DeleteNice work on all the figures Ray and really, you should be pleased Holly didn't add a rabbit's nose and ears or something similar to your images!
ReplyDeleteShe might as well have.
DeleteWell done, sir! That is a lot of figures to cover an eight foot table.
ReplyDeleteThanks Alex.
DeleteVery nice output of painting you did. 😀
ReplyDeleteCheers Stew!
DeleteA Herculean effort Ray, well done.
ReplyDeleteDamn Blogger.
DeleteThanks George!
DeleteImpressive and inspiring as always, Ray! Just when I think I have too much stuff I see work like yours and know I've got a long way to go. :)
ReplyDeleteKeep plugging away Dean.
DeleteCongratulations on getting to the ned of the challenge with such a huge haul.
