Knowing the rate you paint, I thought the Subject line was going to be your current total since entering the painting competitions -or something similar, kt! LOL

I suk at painting faces...Note how many models have full helms, are beasts, monsters or robots. Then count how many have a face.

Ummm yes they are. The terrain itself is the base since they are glued directly to it.

So would they be 2, 3 points each? They are 54mm. Isn't that the same size as Inquisitor game models?

We haven't had anyone submit any that size for the contest, but if they did; how many points would they be?

I think it would probably be around 3 points each. That would net around 107 points per volunteer.

To be honest, I went through the whole blog to find when the project started and from what I can see, deadline to submit to be a painter was february 18 so they had at most 3 months to do this.

It's incredible to have 140 volunteers to painting the same thing over and over for 3 months and the consistency of the painting is incredible.
