Painting contest - Rants and raves thread

Post by Konrad » Thu Feb 19, 2015 3:25 am

Hey! Sorry if I missed it, but I couldn't find anything about it. Is there going to be any sort of painting competition this round?

If there is enough interest, sure we can have a painting contest.

I second that, there should be a handicap on the awesome painters. :D like tie one hand to their back or make them bicycle at the same time.

I guess I'd be interested in a bit of painting.

Oi! I painted a coupla nice things quite nicely once or twice and now I'm an "awesome painter"? Yeesh. Have you seen what I've done recently? Tabletop is where I am at right now. No time or patience for anything more than that...

Well, I propose we just limit it to one entry, choose the winner by secret ballot. That way you can vote for yourself! That should handicap MIJ.
No, seriously. Just one entry, secret ballot. Maybe a "best technique/awesomeness" category and a "personal favorite/awesomeness" category. I doubt anyone wants to get stuck being the judge and having to think hard about anything. I know I hate that.
And someone who can take pictures bring a camera! As awesome as that green elf is, we need a new pic on the homepage!
