Welcome to the September 2013 Painter of the Month Competition. Changes from last month's post are in red.
Each contestant must submit a photo of an unopened box, unassembled model or unpainted model or models or submit a drawing or photo describing the project into the "Painter of the Month
September 2013" thread by
September the 10th. Primed only models are acceptable but completely unprimed models are preferred. All genres of modeling are acceptable; i.e. any
40K, WFB, LOTR, FoW, plastic, metal, paper or collectable model as well as any scratch built project including terrain pieces. A list will be posted by one of the moderators in this post listing all eligible contestants for the month's competition. No entries will be accepted or can be changed after the 10th of
September. No exceptions.
During the month, wip photos can be put into the thread, and in fact are encouraged, but may not be placed in the competition gallery.
All completed entries must be submitted by the
27th of September and must posted in the competition gallery. No entries will be accepted after midnight GMT on
September 27th. Only one entry per person will be permitted and the entry must consist of a single image. Multiple photos on the image are allowable but if more than one photo is uploaded to the gallery by any one entrant at any time, that entrant will be disqualified.
If an entrant has not completed their project by the deadline, they may still enter an incomplete entry if desired, but it will of course be judged as such. The only requirement is to post the entry by the deadline. The members of the site have the final word after all!
Voting will be held from just after midnight
September 27th until midnight GMT on
September 29th. At that time voting will be closed and the winners will be announced.
Every registered member of the site may vote. The total number of votes each member may cast will depend on the number of entrants as follows;
Up to 5 entries - 1 vote per registered member
6 to 10 entries - 2 votes per registered member
More than 10 entries - 3 votes per registered member
You can change your vote(s) until the poll is closed. No poll results will be revealed (even to the moderators) until the poll has closed.
The first place winner will be named the "Painter of the Month" and will be listed on the site.
At the end of the year a "Painter of the Year" will be chosen. The winner will be determined by a site vote poll for all previous 1st place monthly winners. In addition, there will be separate vote polls for all previous monthly 2nd and 3rd place winners, with overall 2nd place and 3rd place finishers being chosen and announced.
The prize for winning this competition will be the satisfaction of completing your project and the notice and accolades of the members and visitors to the Age of Strife. That plus permission to add the title "AOS Painter of the Year 2013" to your signature.Good luck to all the contestants!
