Speed Painting Competition!

Hey all! I recently joined in a fun little speed painting competition that took place at my local Warhammer store as part of their 2-year anniversary. Click the link to see some more photos and my results!

The painting competition overall was a blast! We had 90 minutes to paint pre-built and primed Stormcast Eternal Sequitors.

Because the models were painted black I tried to stick to colors that would cover well, so Base paints were important to use.

I ended up going with what I would call a "Sigmarine" color scheme, with primarily Ultramarine colors to give the model a different look. Than the usual gold.

We had 7 contestants overall and I was very pleased to take home first place and get the "Golden Grot" which is a cool little trophy the store gives out for their painting competitions.

I've only ever done one other speed-painting competition in the past, and this was a big challenge for me! I tried to strictly use layering techniques, and only overbrushed the top knot of hair on the model, and dry brushed the stone base. I only had roughly 2 minutes left at that point, so speed was key!

Thanks for checking out the post, and stay tuned for more updates on my Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40k armies!
