Calendar Update and Announcing 2nd Painting Contest

The judging of the first P&P Painting Contest will be postponed for one more weekend due to there being no entries to judge. If no entries are submitted next Sunday, March 29th, the prizes will instead be used in our second competition, which I will also be posting about here.

We will not be at Hobbytown this coming Sunday, March 22, because we will be in Indiana for the annual 7-Years-War historical gaming convention.

April 12th is Easter Sunday, and Hobbytown will be closed for the holiday, so no P&P event that day.

And the following Sunday, the game room will be reserved for a modellers' convention, so it is likely that there will be no tables available in the game room for P&P. IF this changes, I will post here. Otherwise, no event on April 19th.

BUT we WILL be there on April 26th to judge the entries in our second contest.

ANNOUNCING THE PAINT-AN-ELF CONTEST!!!

This contest will be similar to our first Paint-a-Kobold contest, except for this time we are asking the participants to purchase their own unpainted model. The rules are as follows.

1. Contest entry must be a model representing an elf.
2. The model must be by Reaper Miniatures, and can be from any of their product lines except of course their Legendary Encounters pre-painted plastic line.
3. Entry must be painted entirely by the person entering it.
4. Participants must be present at the time of judging to win.
5. Participants compete in either the 12-and-under or 13-and-up category.
6. 1st and 2nd prizes will be awarded in each of the two categories.
7. This contest is free and opened to anybody, not just P&P club regulars.

Although you are encouraged to buy your own model, and hopefully have begun your own collection of model paints, you are always welcomed to join us at any P&P Sunday events between now and judging to work on your model and share in the group's collective enthusiasm for improving individual painting skills.

Above all, this competition is about fun! Whether you win a prize or not, if you do your best or maybe a little better and have a good time doing it, then you have achieved something worthwhile.

Lastly, we hope to see you all in two weeks. The dungeon has been too quiet lately. Methinks the monsters are lonely and miss the company. We've missed you all too.
