    It's been more than a week after deadline. I'm eager to reveal my miniature. So when can we start voting @Rikard ?

    Apologies about this, I will have them popped up tomorrow.
    Hit a foul point as all my green stuff got moved and placed on top of a radiator....it's wonderfully denatured now, so have been trying to get replacements.

    Today is the day!

    I almost entered something myself, but it was too small of a project to be taken seriously.

    Small updates, updates, updates.....

    So, things went to hell in a handbag here, tons went wrong and then from bad to worse, to simultaneously stubbing the big toe on your right foot whilst standing on a lego brick with your left.

    Funerals off island, work issues (despite having moved division) and finally the icing on this disaster sundae, the prizes got wrecked.
    Worse than wrecked, un-salvagable.

    I'm torn between severe frustration and head against wall irritation, especially after all my talk of being proactive.


    I'm off to Japan for two and a bit weeks this coming Friday, I badly need the break, but the timing couldn't have been worse with all this going on, as it means (excluding what I do this week, which won't be much), that I won't be able to start sorting replacements until I get back.

    I know there must be a considerable number of you who are disappointed, there's not a huge amount I can do on this one.

    If anyone is unhappy and doesn't want to wait for a prize, drop me a PM and I'll sort out a suitable replacement (such as a voucher for a miniature website, or similar).

    Sometimes things just go wrong. Everyone is happy that you put on a great contest and I'd imagine that all prize winners will be only to happy to wait (we Lizards are supposed to be a patient bunch... you know, cold-blooded and all).

    Take a break and enjoy Japan. (I've been contemplating a trip to Japan myself... it's between Japan, Switzerland or Hawaii).

    Hmmmm voucher or wait for a unique sculpted weapon or similar from a very talented person, no brainer voucher please :D :D :D

    Enjoy Japan and when you get back take your time with the replacements, and next time you run a comp give me a shout and I will help you setup the thread etc ;)

    Thanks for putting together this competition, I really enjoyed the entries! And I think everyone will understand if the prizes take longer than anticipated.
