The Goal: Paint any 10 models to Adepticon Painting Standards (For max points)
 |
| Yay! |
Long Term: Build a painting habit, and get all of my shit painted..... I LITERALLY HAVE 300+ NIGHT GOBLINS. THAT IS 30 STRAIGHT WEEKS OF NIGHT GOBLINS.
 |
| Me realizing that I have 300+ NG to paint |
Painting Standard: The Adepticon painting rubric.
Consequences: If one of us fail we are required to put $20 in a jar to be used for tournaments/travel/beer. Could get expensive.

| My Reaction when seeing this painting rubric |
Panting Rubric
I couldn't find the official Adepticon Rubric but here is one from a few years ago.
Initial Overall Impression
0 Points: There is at least one model in the army unfinished. If something is unfinished favor this one.
10 Points: The army is fully painted, but only to the most basic of tournament requirements. There is still the possibility of impressive basing or conversion work.
15 Points: Army is fully painted and there has obviously been effort put into detailing the army beyond the minimum tournament standard.
Display Base
0 Points: No display base, Rubber Maid lid, etc.
1 Point: Basic, just one flock.
2 Points: Multiple flock, or painted with highlights one flock, framed edge.
4 Points: Multiple flock, or painted with highlights one flock, terrain elements, shading and highlighting of elements.
6 Points: Intricate diorama that just ‘wows’ the judge.
Model Basing
0 Points: Bare plastic bases.
1 Point: Basic one flock, no paint.
2 Points: Multiple flock, or painted with highlights one flock, no painting.
4 Points: Multiple flock or painted with highlights one flock; with clean painted edges.
6 Points: Diorama-like bases with high attention to detail.
Conversions
0 Points: No conversions.
1 Point: Minimal: The army has some elementary conversions (head/weapon swaps, arm rotations) or a couple interesting swaps.
2 Points: Minor: Units have multi-kit conversions including head and weapon swaps. This is for more than a few models such as a unit.
4 Points: Major: The army has some difficult conversions that use things such as putty, plastic card, drilling, sawing, minor sculpts, etc. This could also apply to the entire army having very well done multi-kit conversions (see above)
6 Points: Extreme: The army has some extreme conversions, which could be: a scratch built conversion or sculpt of an entire model, a large amount of models with difficult conversions (see above), or the entire army is extremely converted.
Advanced Skills
0 Points: No advanced techniques.
2 Points: The models have a basecoat with a shade and highlight color.
4 Points: The models have been shaded using layering with highlights or blending (but the blending is not seamless)
6 Points: The models have been shaded using seamless blending
Exceptional Extras
0 Points: No extras
2 Points: The army has rough freehand work, simple unit/army markings, and/or basic vehicle weathering.
4 Points: The army has quality transfer work and clean unit/army markings and or vehicle weathering.
6 Points: The army has stellar freehand detail work (banners, army/unit symbols, squad markings, etc.) and/or realistic vehicle weathering.
If total of above checklist totals 37 or more points, only award 37 points. All players scoring 37 points on appearance will be judged a final time, for up to 3 additional points at the judge’s discretion, for a max Appearance score of 40 points
So there you have it. I'm not pushing for best painted but I'm hoping to max out on every one of these categories for each model, might be hard but I plan on speed painting my entire army - minus characters.
