from RayR - AHPC14 - Challenge Wrap up

My last post from the Challenge, originally posted on the AHPC blog on the 23rd March.

Well that went quick, didn't it?

Can't believe the Challenge is over for another year.

I'm already thinking about, what I can get ready for December and Challenge 15.

Thanks got to Curt & Sarah for all their hard work setting up and throughout the Challenge. Thanks to my Minion Teemu, and to all the other Minion's, I know how much time it took out of my painting schedule, when I was a minion!! Lastly a big thanks you to all you other Challengers who all help to make this Challenge what it is today. Especially those who found the time to comment on my posts, I really appreciate the encouragement.

Austrian Lothrengin Infantry & Bavarian Arco Horse

Ottoman Infntry, ElCid statue, St Dominic fountain, Highland Cattle, Star Wars AT AT's

Haitian Revolution Infantry and Cavalry

This year 25/28mm figures were dominate. I painted up...
127 x 25mm infantry figures

20 x 25mm Cavalry figures

The rest were various scales

2 x 1/1200 scale ships

1 x 54mm figure

3 x 2/6mm figures

In total 153 figures.

I always try and aim for a top 30 finish and top 10 finish would be preferred, but I'd have had to paint up another 600 points worth for 10th place, so was not achievable. I'd like to think my illness played a big part in that, but I'm not convinced that I could have painted up another 600 points worth of figures, if I had another month to paint!!!
