Warhammer 40k

A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Gauging interest in another painting competition (lemmy.world)

It has been a while since this community has done a painting competition. I'd like to do another one, and get community input.

Right now, I am thinking of making it a single figure contest, no size rules, with submission and judging sometime in late September.

I've previously done trophies and small prizes, but since those are out of pocket costs for me, I've put myself in a corner with excessive shipping costs in the past, so I'm going to make the prize either much smaller or just make a digital record of the winner. I do want to encourage community participation and collaboration, and it is my hope that a painting competition can bring out some excitement that will create that among community members.

I'll leave this post up for a while, looking for interest levels and any suggestion for competition guidelines. More to come after.

I should be up for that, I've really been getting into the swing of things with my painting recently.
