Roolz Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 (edited) In reference to a a famous french TV spot from the 80's. It probably never been aired outside french-speaking countries. But a few years later, the actor (Marc de Jonge) played the evil russian in Rambo 3. That being said, I'm running a mini painting contest. - OK, wot's the prize ? - An "Everlasting wet palette" from Redgrass Games. Redgrass Games will graciously provide me the item. Thanks to them! I suppose il will be this one : https://www.redgrassgames.com/everlasting-wet-palette/everlasting-wet-palette-painter/ I could keep it like the fat cheapskate that I am, but since I already bought one a while back, I don't intend to start a collection*. I'll cover the shipping fees to you, since I'm super nice and it's Christmas soon. *it would be appreciated that those who already own this palette do not enter the contest, but I can't send spies everywhere, so do as you wish. - Kay wot do I need to do ? - Just post a photo of one of your painted minis, under this post. A single miniature, painted by yourself (if it's painted by your spouse or kid it's OK, though). Two photos maximum (front/back). The mini must be from a Monolith game (Conan, Batman, Claustrophobia, Mythic Battles). It can be a mini that you painted previously, or one that you'll paint during the coming month. - Yup. When does that run ? - Contest starts : now, 02 december 2019. Contest ends : in one month, 02 january 2020. - And who gets the stuff eventually ? - The winner will be designated by a fair jury, composed of several undisputed international experts (i.e. me and my wife, and maybe one of the cats will chime in). Everybody has a chance to win, be it the seasoned professional or the trowel-painter, since the criteria are not established yet ! To quote a famous french philosopher : "One cannot really bet everything on one's looks. Especially you. So if I can give you any advice, it's : forget you don't have a chance, go for it!"

Not Quite Dead Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 As said on the French-speaking forum, where this contest is happening too: Thanks @Roolz! It's very neat from you to do this! I guess I'll have a try: I've got a Kothian archer who's been primed for ages. It could be the occasion to paint it!
