It's a painting and modelling challenge, can't say I've ever heard of someone entering a stripped model ready for painting. Maybe someone might vote for it though if they think it's Art <.<

Sadly not going to include me again, the model I was painting has lost his feet in a last minute OCD converting accident and I'm away from home without the tools to repair.

The lesson there is stop fussing and be content, those 'if only the feet were slightly repositioned' voices should not always be listened to. :roll:

Perhaps you could cut off your own feet, that might reflect the avatar theme of this Challenge :D

ha! Actually you have unwittingly stumbled very close to the reality of my life anyway, but no, not this time, not deliberately anyway.

I've now had a very kind friend deliver me the bits to sort out my feet, but I won't be done in time for this challenge sadly. Good luck to the other entrants though.

Ok no worry's maybe you can take part in the Autumn Challenge instead.

So tomorrow (Sunday) is the last day of painting, I want photos by Monday and I don't mean of your old dear or a dead cat :D

Thanks to everyone who has already sent in their entry's.

Cheers,

OK thanks it then, put your paint brushes down.
