Meant to get this up over Christmas but I've been a miserable bastard and not got round to it... There was a desire expressed for a New Year Challenge so here it is! Same format as last time (which was on the old Crapatalk forum and took me ages to find!). The Challenge runs from 1st Jan 2019 until 30th April 2019 so basically is a driver for a lot of Ayton stuff. Each participant chooses a points target based on the following scheme. I know the point system isn't perfect but it's just for a personal guide and not a competition.

The Scoring

• 3mm foot figure = 0.5 point
  3mm mounted figure, artillery piece or crew served weapon = 1 point
  3mm vehicle = 2 points
  6mm foot figure = 1 point
  6mm mounted figure, artillery piece or crew served weapon = 2 point
  6mm vehicle = 4 points
  10mm foot figure = 2 point
  10mm mounted figure, artillery piece or crew served weapon = 4 points
  10mm vehicle = 8 points
  15mm foot figure = 3 points
  15mm mounted figure, artillery piece or crew served weapon = 6 points
  15mm vehicle = 12 points
  20mm foot figure = 4 points
  20mm mounted figure, artillery piece or crew served weapon = 8 points
  20mm vehicle = 16 points
  28mm foot figure = 5 points
  28mm mounted figure, artillery piece or crew served weapon = 10 points
  28mm vehicle = 20 points
  40/42mm foot figure = 7 points
  40/42mm mounted figure, artillery piece or crew served weapon = 15 points
  40/42mm vehicle = 28 points
  54mm foot figure = 10 points
  54mm mounted figures, artillery piece or crew served weapon = 20 points
  54mm vehicle, limber, etc. = 40 points

Let me know your total ASAP and I'll update the table and add/remove people as requested. You can post images here if needed or create your own painting challenge thread in the Gallery and just use this to lay claim to your points!

Good luck!

Stick me down. I'll work out the details soon.

How many points for a radio tower ?

How about 10, 15, 30, 40 points for 6mm, 10mm, 20mm, 28mm buildings?

I don't have a target as such, I just want to crack on with stuff in general. I assume we can only include stuff which wasn't started in 2018?

Yep. 2019 only... Otherwise I'll be sticking tufts on all those figures from last year to 'finish them'...

Not to mention photographing them from different angles to multiply them.....

What about 3mm?

I was thinking of asking to join in, but obviously posting proof photographs here is an issue for me, although I'm more than happy to post them on my fb page "The Officer's Mess". But as I paint mainly 54mm and 42mm my figures might be a tad inflated. I just did a rough count of 2018's efforts (and converted the numbers into points) and it worked out at 1,035 for 28mm, 1,669 for 42mm, and 1,170 for 54mm, I don't know how that compares. But the whole idea does seem like a good motivator.

Robert Avery runs a similar one on www.vislardica.com for followers of the lardies fb, forum and yahoo groups, which I do add entries to. But this one here might tempt me, been finishing a lot of 6mm epic the last few weeks.
