The TBB Quarterly Painting Contest Starts Now...

Post by Evil Git »

ok then, so the competiton as it stands is as follows...

the competition will run from now until 26 november 2004. that should give you all enough time to think about what you want to paint and procrastinate until a week or two before the deadline (well if you're all like me this is what will happen anyway).

first up is a model of your choice from the phigs miniatures range (available from www.phigsminiatures.com) that really is the only stipulation with regards to the miniature that you have. if you want to do a gnoll or a valkyrie then off you pop and pick one up.

conditions of the paint job will are that you need to slap on at least 3 different colours (just like if it was a gw painting comp). it would be nice if the mini was based but it's not essential.

any other questions, just drop a line here and i'll answer them as i go along, whilst also updating this page too.

oh and before i forget again, good luck to everyone taking part.

the list of likely contestants for the inaugral competition (those that expressed some interest in the soundoff thread) are as follows in no particular order:

Bonehead
Dave
Djengis_Khan - recieved pictures
EmperorNorton
Ewan
Grasshopper
Kwailung

Snotsngrots
Stu
Sturmjarl - recieved pictures
Thadrin - recieved pictures
Tim
Tojurub
Xtreme - recieved pictures

and last but not least me (yeah i very nearly forgot myself. oh dear.) :oops: - recieved pictures

If i've forgotten to put you down, just list your name down here and i'll add you onto the list. also if you were only thinking about it and have changed your mind then also just list down here and i'll scrub you off.

oh yeah, if you have any other questions about this that you can't find answers for then just jot them down and i'll think of something to answer it (hopefully anyway).

didn't say anything about mixing now, did it.... almost makes me want to break out the sepia-tone pulp figure project again.

Nov. 26th should give me enough time for one mini, so I'll tentatively throw my brush into the ring as well. Assuming I can make the deadline, my entry will be either a valkyrie or a witch -- seeing as those are the unpainted Phigs I already have lying around! ;)

Could we make a deal not to show off any minis before the deadline is past; that way nobody gets discouraged as soon as Longfang is done...

Chaos Halfling? There are Chaos Halfling figs? Or is that an Imp?
