Default THE 1ST(...2nd:D) 40K TERRA PAINTING COMP.....entry and rules thread

The competition is going to be run over February 08 and marked for two weeks after that. Entries have to be painted in February and a post needs to be made with the unfinished mini next to a newspaper/teletext/this forum with recent post.

The mini can be any make or size but must be a single mini. They can also be converted but in this comp it is purely the painting that is being marked.

The marking is going to be self judged by the contestants with each entry being made into a thread and contestants and ONLY contestants marks will count (this is to ensure each entry has the same amount of people marking it). Contestants cannot mark there own mini.

There will also be some extra bonus awards on offer TBA.

The prize will be,

20 reps and banner for the winner
15 reps and banner for second place

extra bonus awards will carry 3 reps each.

The area's that will be marked out of 10 are:

Colour (how well the colours are working)
Base (goes without saying)
Atmosphere (how well the mini works in it's fluff eg, 40K universe)
Technique (This is to mark if techniques have been used on highlighting, eyes, etc)
Overall Skill (this is the main one, as this is all the above put together and a score is given to how well the painter has put it all together)

If you would like to enter or have any questions, let me know in this thread. If you have any ideas on improving something, then please pm myself or Burnwitme and we can have a look at it.

WoooT

We should stick to a single mini and not vehicles this time.

If we get a good number enter this time we could do more varied subjects next time if we get enough people enter.

I probably won't get in on this, but you might want to change the name to "The second 40K Terra Painting Contest". If I remember correctly, we had our 1st contest quite some time ago...

just single figures no defilers or dreadnaughts. like mart said earlier if theres enough people who enter this contest we can add more like larger models and squads for the next one. not trying to step on anyones toes tho. we want to keep it simple for this one.
