Hey, everyone!
This is the thread for the first monthly Paint-Off challenge. First, the rules:
Paint-Off Guidelines
1. A miniature will be selected prior to the beginning of each Paint-Off. Although it is not required, it is strongly suggested that you paint the chosen miniature, although some accomodation is allowed.
(In order of preference)
1. Gandalf the Grey (Fellowship of the Ring)
2. Any other version of Gandalf the Grey (i.e. Breaking of the Fellowship, Gandalf on Cart, etc.)
3. Any version of Gandalf the White
4. One of the Istari (i.e. Saruman, Radagast, etc.)
5. A miniature primarily swathed in long, flowing robes (i.e. Círdan, Galadriel & Celeborn, etc.)
2. Miniatures may not be painted at the beginning of the Paint-Off (assembled and undercoated is fine), and each participant should show proof of this status.
3. You may join the Paint-Off in progress at any time, but must submit photographs of the completed miniature by midnight GMT of December 31, 2009. WIP images are welcomed and encouraged.
4. Miniatures that are completed in time will be eligible to win the Paint-Off challenge. The Paint-Off challenge 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. The winner will receive three (3) gold coins and the runner-up will receive two (2) gold coins.
5. Winners from the previous month are able to participate in the Paint-Off, but are not eligible to win in consecutive months.
Now, let's see some painting!!!
