2025 Painting Competition - The Results

Our 2025 painting competition has finished and the votes have been counted. A massive thank you to everyone that entered this year and to everyone that took the time to come in and vote.

The standard was outstanding and the imagination for some of the conversions showed just how much time and thought had gone into the entry.

For some it was one of the very first pieces that they had painted and there was a great mix of younger entries and more experienced painters.

Every single entry got a decent number of votes which is so great to see, the people that voted loved the variety and spent time looking at all of the entries.

All of the models are still on display in the shop, if you want to come in and see them and they will be available for the owners to pick up in the new year.

After all the votes had been counted, the top four were as follows...

In fourth place and highest placed under 16 was Andrea. Several people commented on his model and many thought it was painted by an adult. He has in fact been painting for just 4 months and spent several days on his entry. I can't wait to see what he does next year. He will receive a £5 voucher.

In third place was Arek, His model featured flames and the impressive glow of the reflection on the armour. He will receive a £5 voucher

In second place was George with this stunning entry featuring three Imperial Fist Infernus Marines. Yellow is a difficult colour to do and these look incredible. He will receive a £10 voucher.

Finally, the winner. Another orky conversion by Leo. This model does indeed feature all the pieces from the original model (including some of the sprue) and people loved the idea. Congratulations on a truely creative and well painted entry. He will receive a £15 voucher.
