Hello all. The entries for the first 40k community painting competition are in.

They are visible as comments in this thread, as well as being on my site here..

The strawpoll for voting is here.

I’ll leave it up until the end of next sunday. Plenty of time to deliberate.

There will also be a moderator voting panel weighing in on mod choices. Both the community and mod choice will be announced together, shortly after voting is closed.

Thanks to everyone who entered, and everyone who votes.

    As he comes, he’s a hair bigger than allowable, especially since I’ve already ruled against another 50mm model.

    There unfortunately has to be a cutoff or size creep is inevitable with borderline questions like this.

    The various squad leaders in the box are still eligible.

      That’s fair and I understand.

      Perhaps for future competitions the defining factor for small models should be the “infantry” keyword? Between scale creep and GW’s arbitrary basing decisions it can be hard to define model size by the base.

        Keywords may be a way to do it as well, although that has a few problems for older models.

        In the future I hope to have more categories which will allow all models to fit in somewhere.
