World Of Minis Painitng Competition.

Tim, is it OK to enter a mini which has only been seen here on a WIP thread which isn't finished??

[Tim C]

I guess you are talking about your persecutor, well as it has only been seen here then I can allow it I guess.
I think that will be the only exception to the rule as it keeps it within the site. BTW I am looking forward to seeing that finished mate.

[menace]

Cheers Tim, it has only been here the once now it will be under wraps...

thanx

*Begins hoping there will be at least a second place prize after seeing Menace's WIP*

Or hoping I am in the "beginner" category... ;D

[Tim C]

Hi all

now this is a bit speacial and should add extra incentive to enter, I am going to have a best of all prize, after the category winners are decided a further vote will be taken on the mini that is the best of all as voted for by the members of this site for both beginner and expert levels.
the winners will recieve an unpainted version of these minis,

for the Best Expert Overall Entry



for the Best Beginner Entry



these miniatures or not so minature actually as they are very large have been kindly donated by newmodlearmies, believe me they are great models I can guarantee that whoever wins these beauties will be extremely happy with them. I have one of each myself and the detail is amazing.

So there is some extra bait for you to go and excel yourselves.

[suladan]

wow those minis are sweeeeeeet

now i am going off to weep, as i wont be getting my hands on either of them meh i will try, hopefully succeed ;D

[ritual]

This sounds like something I should enter... I think I can manage to finish something...

[dogfacedboyuk1]

Those are top prizes Tim, lovely sculpts indeed. Shame I won't be getting my hands on them either.

[jabberwocky]

Great prizes!

*Gets back to the painting table*

[scarifice]

i really need to work hard on my 3rd entry. i hope i can win something..maybe in the beginner category.
how do i know wether i am in the beginner category or in the professionel^^ category?? and when is the last possibility to submit something??

[Tim C]

I'll look at your entry and put it where I think it belongs, the last date for submissions is the 24th of September.

[scipio]

Wow Tim, your forum has really taken off and these prizes are insane!! I thought the unpainted sculpts of these guys looked amazing, but painted... OMG!!

[Tim C]

Glad you like the forums scipio, don't forget that the overall winners will recieve an unpainted[/b] version of these minis. I hope you are going to take part mate.

So is it ok to open up a WIP thread on WoM for comp. entries?

[Tim C]

Of course it is, you can do it if you like or else i can open one up when I have a little more time.

[Tim C]

If no-one obljects to there entries being seen, I will open up a thread for submissions, this must only include completed minis and I would also like to see the front and back of the mini as well.
Also Try to keep your image size down to around 500 pixels max, if you can't do this then e-amil the image to me and i can do it for you.

[menace]

Is that a max 500pixals wide or is it all dimensions

ps.. well done on the prizes, they are outstanding... i'm supposed to be laying off the minis for a while due to work but this has fired me up to maybe start my very first 40K mini ;D

[Tim C]

Height isn't too much of a problem, it is the width if the limit is kept to around 500 pixels it will avoid the page stretching too much. Verticla stitching is the best way to go for multi angle shots.

[Tim C]

A little bit of bad news on the prize front I am afraid, the models from New Model Armies that were to be the overall best entry prizes have not appeared and the supplier has not responded to my e-mails.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that we will still see them arrive but I am not holding my breath.
I will try to procure them from somewhere else if possible.

[menace]

Don't fret Tim, the fun's in the competing!! Anyways, you could always replace it with a Tim C painted mini... now that would be a cool prize

[bruenor]

Tim, is the comp' still open?

I may have something to enter depending on when you close it.

[Tim C]

Yes the comp will be open until October 7th then I will set up the voting threads for the entries.

[bruenor]

Fantastic, better get me paint brushes revved up.....

[drevilmonki]

October 7th? Hell that will teach me for thinking I have missed it. I might have something finished for this after all (something that Tim will like - get in with the judges I say! ;D ).
