Victoriarts Painting Competition
16 August @ 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Victorius is partnering with Melbourne’s Figure Painter Collective to host our first painting competition at Victorius ’25. VictoriARTs‘ focus is on celebrating the modelling and painting aspect of our hobby. So whether this is your first event or a veteran competitor, VictoriARTs is your opportunity to demonstrate your creativity, artistry and technical skills.
CATEGORIES
VictoriARTs has 3 categories allowing you to showcase your talents across the miniatures or models you like best.
- Show figure
Category is open to painted versions of the show figure only.
The show figure will be available in Melbourne from early June. - Small figure – 54mm and below
Entries should be a single figure on either a gaming or display base. All figure types/genres accepted, with nominal scale being 54mm and below. (eg: Victrix, Warhammer, Infinity, Maschinen Kreiger suits) - Large figure – 54mm and above
Any larger entries. This category encompasses warmachines from various gaming universes, larger scale display figures and busts, military vehicles such as armour, aircraft and ships, and mecha suits such as Gundam. Dioramas & vignettes should also be entered into this category.
NB – the judging/submissions panel reserve the right to move an entry to a more appropriate category without consultation.
JUDGING
Open system judging focuses on the overall quality of entries and where they sit in relation to other entries in the competition. Rather than awarding a first, second & third place, the open system allows for multiple entrants to place in the same category. For example, if 20 entries are received and 12 of them meet the gold standard, then all 12 receive a gold award.
There will also be a best in category award for the overall winner in each. Note there is only one ‘best’ award per category.
All judging is final and no discussions will be entered into. Feedback may be available if time permits.
