The Archon's Challenge - a painting contest

I can do that.

I was playing with the chart function a while back and now is as good a time as any to put it to good use.

Please look at my Challenge suggestions that are posted elsewhere....

I think we need to look at promoting this more, maybe keep the current category featured as a global announcement? Is there a way we can give more recognition to the winners or suggest that they parade it off in their signatures? What about an overall points tally for the Challenge? 0 for not entering, -1 for failing to complete, +5 for finishing, +20 for overal winner, 10 for 1st runner, 9 for 2nd runner and so on? Would create an incentive for those who want to go the whole way but then may put off people entering halfway through.

Just a question? With the troops entry...do we have to include a vehicle or is there going to be a separate entry comp for transport?

I will amend the instructions, but adding a vehicle is up to you entirely/

Why can't I find this?
Liknylink?

When are we going to get the individual comment threads for round 2?

Comments for round 2 will done after all final submissions have been entered and thread is closed.

Question - is it okay in my troop entry selection to include three kabalite models with Shardcarbines? Technically, they are Trueborn, but the entire colourscheme is the same.

No problem.

Oh dear, only just now I noticed that you have done criticism for every entry, GAR. I really love the input! Really good criticisms and tips, thank you for that and sorry that I only noticed it almost two months later.

I like to think of it as positive feedback. My goal is to help every contestant improve. I know its not a paint class, but it does help, I hope, for each painter to see what I see and help them get the wheels turning in their heads on what to do next and how to make it better.

I'm not completely done with round 1 yet, but I finally have an open weekend to do something so I will be updating critiques this weekend.

Am I able to participate with a half-done Ravager if I have no pictures of its beginning stages?



I've completed both side turrets but the rest of the craft is pretty basic, though it seems a bit ambiguous so I'll let you judge. If it's considered to be done too far, I'll enter my crisis-Talos instead.
