That makes me reconsider entering at all
Yet it's still a motivating factor to paint

News!!!!

And here we are, less than a month after the expiry, begin to define the details of the chick challenge !

https://www.farabi.it/ChCh/index.htm

Besides having put on the first line participants have also added the total list of prizes for the competition and as you can see are really many!

Short updates with the prize for each category and a small surprise for the trophy will come!!
we wait your works folks!

don't you think that posting such good works might discourage some painters from entering?

It should be a great motivation for you

I'll try to take part in the contest but don't know if I manage to paint something till 30 april.
I like the idea of chick contest very much

Guys (and girls) don't get demotivated.
THe spirit of the contest is 1) to really contest between painters but also 2) to createa beautiful display of miniatures, and it really doesn't matter if you are a less experienced painter.
All our contest are mostly for the pleasure to show each other our paintjobs, that are ARE really precious and appreciable.
So paint and send your pictures to the contest and enjoy to see that show!
And by the way, I am sure there won't be disappointed painters...
Looking forward to see you all on the contest

sure thing Doc. I have made pics few days ago already, just need to send them to you

BTW, do you want separate pics (front, back+detail) or 1 pic with all views?

Better separate: front, back and details. Plus the table with your details (name, nick, and so on)
Thanks fro entering the contest

We decided to postpone the deadline of the contest.
This decision has been taken out of two reasons mainly:
1) we would like to hand out ALL the prizes kindly presented by our sponsors; we want many entries and we want the judges to sweat over the proclamation of the winners due to the high standard of the miniatures. We also want this to be fun, and would like as many painters as possible (even the less expert) to try and participate out of their passion for the hobby.
2) further the extension of the duration of the contest, it is allowed to attend real contests (this excludes any other online contests) as long as the pictures of the miniatures will not be posted anywhere before the end of the ChickChallenge. Specific cases in contrast with these rules will be evaluated beforehands (or afterwards) by the Arbiter, solely Judge on such decisions.
3) We would like to add the possibility to include sculptures (of female figures, needless to point out) in the last category (which would consequently become OPEN). From next year on there will be an extra category for sculptures only, but we would like to enrich this marvellous international competition since now. Which basically means: get your sculpting tools and show us your unpainted greens! So, the category "Gangs and Scenes", further the introduction of the sculptures (that go into this category) will melt into OPEN category, that now will include anything that doesn't fit any other coategory (like flat figures)
We would really like this great contest, which for many years has been a reference point for figure painters all around the world thanks to Jason Moses, to shine again in its well deserved glory.
Therefore, the deadline to enter your works is officially postponed to Sunday, May 25. Take advantage of this time-shift and throw your minis in the melee... of the CHICK CHALLENGE!
Have fun!
