Special Painting Challenge: Command Group!
Hello everyone! Welcome to the thread for the March Painting Challenge!
Rules
1. A miniature is decided upon before each monthly painting challenge. This month is the third 'Special' Painting Challenge where instead of a single miniature being chosen, a theme is chosen. This month will be a command group themed challenge as voted for by the community.
To enter this month you MUST have a Captain and at least 1 of the following; Banner Bearer, Hornblower, Drummer (Drummers in Moria's case), Taskmaster, Dragon Knight, Shieldbearer, Kings Huntsmen, Knight of the White Tower or Shaman (War Priest) - max of 1 of each. The new Command models will also count, as shown above. If you really want to include a named Character that fits in properly with the theme, you can include one instead of the captain or as well as.
So the Maximum for Minas Tirith would be a Captain, a Banner Bearer, a Hornblower, a Knight of the White Tower and Boromir, Captain of the White Tower (or another suitable substitute such as Faramir).
If you are unsure as to whether something will be elligible for entry, just post asking or PM me and I will let you know whether or not you may use it.
2. To enter the painting challenge, the miniature/s you are painting must not be painted before starting and picture proof must be shown of the miniature/s 'pre-painted' (unprimed, undercoated or if you are repainting and old miniature - in its' original paint scheme) otherwise your entry will not be eligible.
3. You may join the painting challenge in progress at any time, but must submit photographs of the completed miniature by midnight GMT of March 31st, 2012. WIP images are welcomed and encouraged.
4. Miniatures that are completed in time will be eligible to win the challenge. The challenge winner will be decided by the vote of the OR community. The community will choose one winner and one runner-up from the completed miniatures. Votes should be cast not simply on painting skill, but on merit, including creativity, application of painting techniques, artist improvement, etc. In previous painting challenges, the winner and runner-up recieved prizes in the form of gold coins, however with the websites current situation, gold coins are not available to give as prizes, so no prize is available at the moment.
5. Winners from the previous month are able to participate in the next months painting challenge, but they are not eligible to win in consecutive months.
6. Please only post a maximum of 10 images for your completed entry (increased from the usual max of 4 images due to the amount of miniatures people might be painting this month). In the voting thread next month I will only include one of these photos along with links to your other photos so please also include a group shot of your command group.
Good luck to all!
