The Sixth Annual Analogue Painting Challenge and Side Duals.

The call for Curt's Analogue Painting Challenge has again been made and of course I have again taken up the challenge, I mean why would I not? 

This year as you will already be aware will not be a large showing for me as I just don't have as much time to paint as I have in previous challengers. The only thing I have going for me is that the winter weather should allow me more painting time on my days off than in recent months.

However I still feel I will have enough in the tank to make two challengers

Most points in 6mm. 
Each of the last four painting challengers has seen me run off a lot of 6mm, this year should again see this as a fairly major part of my painting again this year as I want to get my Macedonian army into gaming shape. However I also want to be far more varied this year so whilst 6mm will feature heavily I plan on doing plenty of 15 and 28mm

Most points in Ancients.
A bit of a cross over, I do have both 15 and 20mm Ancients as well as the 6mm so will be hopefully getting a mixed bag of points.

So does anyone fancy taking me on this year in a little side challenge?

    I may be up for the challenge. I have 2x28mm armies to paint - republican Roman and Carthaginian so if you are up for it so am I. Although in this case the more challengers the better I think

      I've never done the challenge before and not sure how it works but I have a hail Caesar army that needs to be assembled and painted...

      Martin, happy to take that challenge and yes more hats in the ring would be good.

      Mark, each figure gets a set amount of points, 6mm 1/2 point for infantry and 28mm 5 points for same. It's a great motivator

    I'm going in, but in a very small way. Trying to keep low key and mostly in the background this year.

      Nobody puts Anne in a corner ;-)

      Anyway it's not about producing tons of figures, rather it's to act as inspiration to paint

      Looking forward to seeing more of your work this year
