Painting Contest

Entry into the Painting Contest is FREE to attendees of DiceFest and you are allowed to enter one entry into each applicable category. Here are the categories for the DiceFest 2025 Painting Contest:

• Single Brimstone Hero - One Shadows of Brimstone Hero on a base. It must be an official Shadows of Brimstone miniature, but may be modified to alter the pose or add details (different weapons, different head or hat, custom base, etc).

• Single Brimstone Enemy - One Shadows of Brimstone Enemy on a base. It must be an official Shadows of Brimstone miniature, but may be modified to alter the pose or add details (extra horns, fur, custom base, etc).

• Beginners - This is a category created for new painters. We want everyone to be able to take part in the painting contest and this category is for painters who have been painting for only 1 year or up to 50 miniatures. Entries in this category can be any single miniature from Flying Frog Productions.

• DiceFest Open Category - This is sort of a catch all category that could include miniatures from any of Flying Frog's games (enter your painted Heroes from Last Night on Earth or A Touch of Evil!). It could also be multiple miniatures on one base or diorama, or a grouping of Heroes or Monsters. It must include at least one official Flying Frog Productions miniature, but may be modified to alter the pose or add details.

You can only enter models that you have personally painted and you are allowed to enter only ONCE per Category. Entries should be submitted at the Painting Area (Paint & Take and Aaron Lovejoy's Paint Zone) and the cutoff for entries is Saturday, November 1st at 1PM. Our panel of judges will review the models and Winners in each category will be announced that evening! Prizes awarded in each category.
