Painting Contest Entrants

Subject: Painting Contest Entrants Fri Jun 27, 2008 12:32 am

Thanks to all the participants. We had 13 entries. 5 prizes and a raffle. So almost a 50% chance of walking away with something. The scoring was hard and their were a lot of close entries. The biggest thing to pull some away from the pack was base work and some originality in design/execution.

Lots of solid beginners and journeymen. I can't wait for the next one.

Without further prattle here are your winners.

Overall First - Danny w/ orc Musician -$50 Sci Fi Gift Cert
Second - Space Marine dual - Matt - $15 Sci Fi Gift Cert

Category Winners (all $15 Sci Fi Gift Certs)
Beginner - Cherry D w/ the Pain Boy
Journeymen - Joe and the Blue Inquisitor Lord
Experienced - Marc and Imperial Fist Veteran.

Door Prize $50 Gift Cert for purchase of 5E40K rulebook - Makari (drawn by Danny's mom who graciously brought his figs for entry)

Here are the entrants.
