In Tournament terms no one is gonna mark you down for crisp and clean. Not that I've seen anyway. As long as the highlights are there.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1679992.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1679992.page GMT Painting scores they do like to see at least one conversion of some discription even if just a head swap etc ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1680319.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1680319.page GMT Painting scores WD when the SW were featured. There was a guy in the back who had his wolves looking like they were in the middle of WWXX (world war 20), and it looked good. I also run tornaments, and if you were to walk in with an army damaged up it would not matter in my tournaments, because we took the soft scores out of tourneys. At our shop it is either 100% painted and based, 50%, or none. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1680346.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1680346.page GMT Painting scores http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1683426.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1683426.page GMT Painting scores http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1683568.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1683568.page GMT Painting scores

What, do you say the wrong thing, resulting in them charging at you with a knife?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1683574.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1683574.page GMT Painting scores based
painted
highlighted

with checks next to whatever is done right?

lol no, I just have unsteady hands and tend to slip so I tend to cut my fingers instead of the models. I could just attach a DA logo on each of the captains foreheads, would that count? lol ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1683731.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1683731.page GMT Painting scores

1. 3 Colours - 2 point
2. Based - 2 point
3. Washing/ drybrushing - 2 point
4. Highlighting / Shading - 2 point
5. Conversion work - 2 point (*conversion being as little as changing the way an arm or pose is constructed)


that way, you dont have to be a golden daemon to get the points needed.. and if you needed a best painted, probably use public opinion or add extra criteria to get the best painted stuff. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1684946.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1684946.page GMT Painting scores OP@ It all depends on the tourny judges. I have been to tournaments where each opponent judges your paint score. In one tournament I got both an 8 and a 3 out of 10. One opponent was new to the game and when compared to his models I was very good. My other opponent normally enters Golden Demon comps and I was subpar compared to him. (I don't like those tournaments BTW)

As for the ones I run, I use a 5 point scale check the box

0 - Nothing done to army, Grey legion
1- Army at least primed
2- Less than 50% painted, even if they are GD quality it is based on whole army not one or two models
3- At least 3 colors on every model
4- 3 colors and models based
5- Wow , Fully painted, based, highlighted attention to details on whole army. Maybe some conversions but not required.

The only room to argue is if I gave someone 4 and they believe they deserved a 5. 0-4 there is no arguing as you know going in what you will get. If you feel you deserve a 5, then you will at least get a 4.

I have seen very few tournaments where one opoint in paint would of changed the out come of the whole event.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1684983.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1684983.page GMT Painting scores http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1684986.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1684986.page GMT Painting scores http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1685062.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1685062.page GMT Painting scores http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1685975.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1685975.page GMT Painting scores
GW put out a check list in 2008/2009 that was pretty good. Fully based, tabletop quality earned 7out of 10. Then there were specific details to get the last 3 points, several painting techniques demonstrated blending, extreme highlighting, etc. I like those best.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1686068.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/300991/1686068.page GMT
