It was a real privilege to have sponsored Over The Top 2026's Middle Earth event in Hamilton this weekend. We were asked to judge the painting, which is always such a challenging task as we all know how much time and love go into these projects. Check out these photos of some of the beauty armies on display. Thank you for organising Thomas, and to everyone who took part, we hope to see you again next year! 🫡
