Welcome to our first online painting contest of 2010. This contest, while a winter contest, has no particular theme. However, entries that are built with a theme in mind and stay consistent to that theme will be considered more highly than others.  In other words, we like fun and clever. Be fun and clever. 

Weigh your chances, enter wisely. Enter as many times as you like, but only one entry per user will be eligible for the final vote.

This thread will be locked February 15th, 2010 (1 minute after midnight, CST). Our staff will pick their favorite entries, then you guys will be able to vote on those favorites.  And three lucky people will get a lovely gift certificate.

Prizes:
1st: $50 Gift Certificate
2nd: $25 Gift Certificate
3rd: $15 Gift Certificate


Fine print:
Reaper reserves the right to remove entries if deemed inappropriate, but the general nudity rules will be lifted for this contest. 
Inappropriate in this case includes a non-Reaper figure.
You can post a side-by-side image featuring two different views of your entry if you need.
Photoshopping your entry is strictly prohibited. Even something simple like adding a logo is prohibited.
Enter as many times as you like, but only one entry per user will be eligible for the final vote.
Previously posted stuff is fair game. This is a friendly contest.
The certificates will be redeemable through the Reaper Online Store.
Reaper can clarify and amend rules at will.
Go ahead and have your friends vote, but many votes from the same IP address will likely be ignored. Especially if your piece isn't that great. No peeing in the pool!

This is my new favorite mini from your Chronoscope line. "The intrepid First Mate Rudy scans the horizon for signs of life."

There is a kingdom in the far north. Its borders are marked with bones and skulls covered with snow, land is empty and devoid of all life, as no live being is welcome there by its ruler.

Some call him Stormwing, as he rides the wind, some call him Coldblooded, as he's never shown any sign of mercy.

Some of the northern tribes worship him, some try to fight him. All - fear him, as he is the true and only master of the land of ice and snow.

This is my first entry of a Wood Slyph.

Hopefully I'm doing this right. Could someone let me know? I'm under the impression that in order to enter into the 2010 painting contest all you have to do is post to this thread. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

This is one of the two werewolves I have painted for an upcoming DnD campaign. I painted the blade to have a mithril affect

I really love wizards and I purchased this mini and painted it to represent a statue I have at home of Merlin the Wizard. Turned out pretty well.
