It's right in the original post, but the deadline is Feb 5th, so you have a little more than a week to get painting!

Hey everyone, *ALL* the rules for the competition are found in the first post. If you don't see the info you're looking for there, give it another quick look because it probably *IS* there!

Here's a copy of some of the rules from the first post:

The Rules:
1.) Abide by the spirit and guidelines of the Challenge presented.
2.) Take a WIP shot of your model before painting. Send your WIP along with your entry.
3.) Paint your model!
4.) Take another shot of the completed model and send it in to dakkapaintingchallenge@dakkadakka.com with your Dakka Handle as the photo's filename. Also be sure to include your dakka handle in the email, just in case. Oh and be sure it's in before Midnight Central (GMT-6:00) the night of the Deadline!!
5.) The day after the deadline, all the entries will be presented for all of Dakka to see! Along with this will be a poll for the community at large to pick their favorite from the bunch.
6.) Public voting will last for 3 Days. And the Top 5 Entries will go on to be voted upon by our Judging Panel. The Winner will be announced soon after!

I hate how this kind of comp can turn into a 'who is best at photography' contest. PREPARE FOR BLURRY-NESS!

Yeah, to avoid confusion we should have used midnight for a deadline...so let's go with 11:59pm on February 5th (CST, GMT -6). So yes, you have about a day left.

**Doomthumbs**

About a year left, you mean.

**Skumle Rafte**

Im still sooo freeekin' confused, if some on is on right now please tell me how long i got left. Work has kept me busy the last few days and i havent had time to do the final this n' that

EDIT: About a year is total'ie cool with me, though I fear the paint is faded by then

Yes.

Hurry up!

Sorry about the whole 'January' instead of 'February' thing in my last post. I have edited it.

11:59 pm CST (-6 GMT) on February 5th. Which is in a few hours.

**Stretch**

Thanks Yak!

**Daggermaw**

Ok entry is closed. We got a lot of submissions, so keep an eye for the voting to go up in the next couple days.

**Reaper Man 2020**

I am waiting with baited breath, can't believe how much anticipation is building!

**BFTrick**

Well this is my first post here and I signed up here just to do this challenge. Hope there are some good entries.

**Perkustin**

Where/when will the voting thread be? Wish i could've entered but i reckon there will be alot of wonderful entries...

**Daggermaw**

The voting will most likely be visible on the main page, and will go up in the next few days after i have time to go through and rename and post all the images.

**Doomthumbs**

I have now worked myself into a frothy lather of anticipation.
