Ye Olde Inn Heroquest Set Competition

Hi Everyone!

Chaoticprime and Spiky are proud to bring you a new mini-painting idea! :) Hopefully you're not sick of these already with the ongoing exchanges... ;)

In a nutshell we would like to encourage as many forum members as possible to paint and send a single model (or maybe 2 if we don't have enough numbers) from the Heroquest base box set. Once we're done we will have a random draw based on the results from the UK or another national lottery and the winner will get sent the whole set!

Deadline for painting a model is to be discussed - it's probably not feasible to get this completed before the end of 2013


Initial thoughts:


- We'll use the list below to keep track of who is painting what models
- You can use either a stock heroquest model or a suitable substitute as long as it's obvious what it represents
- Conversions are fine as long as it's clear what the model represents
- You must paint your forum name and "2013" onto the bottom of the model's base
- Base the model in a way you feel is most appropriate
- Chaoticprime will receive entries from US & Canada, Spiky will receive entries from Europe - post to whichever country is cheapest for you, We'll then post the mini's to the winner
- For the draw, we'll select a date and publish a list of entries with a number assigned to each one. Then, the first number drawn which matches an entry will win the lot!
- We'll need to agree on which lottery to use and the date of the draw to be used

I am not a painter. F--K!
But the fact everyone is supposed to mark their mini 2013 gives me high hopes for next year.

It doesn't matter whether you are a painter or not ;) Just do it, it's not that hard ;)

That's actually a good idea, I wonder how much would a base set cost...

It’s not a competition but it’s better to pay 5 euro each and the one who wins the lottery will get a gift from ebay to his address… 5 euro is a bottle of bear for every one of us, but with 50 euros a guy of us could be very happy with his gift.

And just like that, Ye Olde Inn had become a hardcore gambling club...

I would definitely be very proud to own such a thing.
35 or more different painting styles, 35 little stories from many members of the inn...
Priceless. Period.
