So You Are Thinking of Entering the Painting Competition at ReaperCon

[Heisler]

I believe the judges may move it to the category that they think it will do best in

 

We will and have done that. We prefer it gets placed in the correct category up front though. It really messes with the paperwork when we have to move entries from one category to another.

7) Remember that if you have ReaperCon Full Weekend badge your entries must be in by 5pm on FRIDAY night. No exceptions.

 

8) If you have a Saturday only badge your entries must be in by 12 Noon on SATURDAY. No exceptions. If you have a ReaperCon full weekend pass you cannot enter on Saturday you missed your cutoff.

 

Ooooh dang. Might I suggest putting these particular points somewhere prominent on the ReaperCon website? (Or several prominent somewheres?) It took me about half an hour of digging to find this, and will GREATLY impact booking airfare if I can scrape enough moneys together to attend. :]

They are on the page with all the juicy rules.

X_x Jeebus, there it is. My apologies. However, I would move that my gentle suggestion to post the info more prominently to remain in the virtual suggestion box. :]

Oh I agree.  I only saw the dates/times because I was making sure I did everything right for my daughter's entry by reading the rules a few times.

I have seen a number of people talking about conversions in WIP threads. If you are thinking of entering a conversion in the ReaperCon competition please consider taking before, after and during shots so that the judges are aware of what you converted and how you did it. It can make a real difference in a judge's opinion on the quality of your work. Let's face it if you did your conversion well, we will never know it was converted (well unless its a Reaper piece odds are we will know on that).

I read this before, but did NOT go back and read it again....

This should go in the pinned in the first post stuff.....

(It's kind of lost in the middle of everything....)

 

Thanks to all the judges for their kindness, both in telling me what was good, but more importantly, telling me what needs improvement!

That being said, I must say I was sad that your Waterdeep diorama didn't have a picture of the original reference material.

I was going to Cranky, but my printer died to provide the Label for "Honey I'm Home!"......

Well, at least it gave it's life for a good cause.

Bumping this one for the ReaperCon 2018 painting competition. Again lots of good info here. If a moderator could pin this I would appreciate it.

@Heisler, my daughter has painted some things she wants to enter in the youth division.  Any rules for it that keeps me from showing off her work online or entering then into other competitions online?
