On Wednesday the Warhammer Alliance held an exciting painting competition, giving students the opportunity to showcase their artistic talents in two categories: Recruits and Veterans. The competition saw 11 participants, 4 of whom were new joiners who were entering some of their first painted models. These budding hobbyists entered the Recruits category, while the more experienced members competed in the Veterans category.
The judges, Mr. Woodall, Miss Woodall, Mr. Walker, Miss Harrison, and Miss Brooker, were tasked with evaluating the impressive array of painted models. After much deliberation, the results were announced.
In the Recruits category, Z. Franklin (7A1) claimed first place, with H. Jackson (7B2) securing second. Z. Franklin's creativity earned them a new Space Marine model and a Leagues of Votann model to further their collection. H. Jackson, whose entry was also highly praised, received a delicious reward of a free cookie for their efforts.
In the Veterans category, S. Scott (10B1) emerged as the winner with their beautifully painted Space Marine Terminator, earning a unit of Inceptors for their Space Marine army. T. Clarke (10T1) took second place, and also received a free cookie.
All participants, regardless of placement, received queue jump passes for lunchtime as a thank you for taking part and contributing to the event’s success. The competition was a fantastic opportunity for students to bond over their shared passion for Warhammer and develop their artistic abilities.
We are proud to celebrate the creativity and enthusiasm shown by all participants, and the winning models you can see in the pictures below showcasing their impressive designs. Congratulations to everyone who took part!
