Every Bartertowner and staff members may participate in the challenge. I've used the spoiler tag to keep this post as clean as I can.
For the new guys, it's pretty simple. I'll keep track of the points in the first post but please let me know the total points you've painted in each post.
Only models mostly painted after January 1st 2023 can be submitted in the challenge. To keep things more balanced and to prevent cases where members hold off from submitting points until the very end of the year, we will set a maximum amount of points allowed to be submitted in the month of November and December to no more than 200 per month (you can still submit more, but any points over 200 will not be added to your total in November and December).
Here is the info on the new points:
