I think its time for a new painting competition to happen, especially as we now have new 40k armies to paint and some(especially me) need some kind of incentive to paint.

Does anyone else agree?

Good Idea buddy, maybe best ship / tank?

Lee is in charge of these things, I'm sure he will be up for it...

good shout mark! I'll have a chat to people tonight to see what the thoughts are.

i may run 2:

1) 40k single mini (infantry sized)
2) 40k big thing (ship/tank/big bug...)

any thoughts?

What about

1) Troop Choice
2) HQ
3) Fast Attack
4) Heavy

That way people can pick and choose what they paint... just incase they, for example dont have a tank!

I was thinking along the lines of only 2 competitions, based on previous entrant numbers. The tanks one wouldn't just be tanks, it'd be 'big stuff'

Good shout steve. Good combination of allowing most possibilities, whilst not having loads of categories. I'll sort something out this weekend.

What about saying 40k and then splitting up depending on entries, no one wants the hollow victory of being the only one to enter a category and there being 4 worthy winners in another?
