Does anybody know when the next painting challenge is gonna be? I had a lot of fun on the last one and I need help motivating myself to paint.

Basically every month someone offer up a prize. And Dakka choose a theme related mostly to modeling .

Then the dakka members have around 1 month to come up with the product , winner gets prize!

Just bear in mind that you usually can't use pre-existing models for the challenge... you have to start and finish during the competition.

Yea its usually pretty cool when they do them. Once every participant is done on the dead line, they submit the pics of the job, and then everyone on DAKKA gets to vote on who the winner is. Some pretty rad stuff has been made during those

So who normally organizes the painting challenges anyway?

(yes, this was a shameless self-bump. I really want another challenge. Whether I win or not is irrelevant, I just want another challenge.)

The next painting challenge is still a bit up in the air as we have had a lot of back and forthing with prize sponsors. One is due to start any time now, but as far as I am aware there is still no prize allocated as of right now.

Check out our new, fully plastic tabletop wargame - Maelstrom's Edge, made by Dakka!
