I just submitted my first miniature ever for a contest (May). Do we get some kind of confirmation to know if the photo is good enough?
Unfortunately we don't have the capacity to vet the photos as they come.
Do we have any idea what some of our choices are for May?
I had this question as well. Is there a list somewhere of everything released in May?
Too many professional painters starting to flood in now. This is losing its grass roots feel. Kind of getting redundantly boring.
Bro I started painting less than a year ago and won twice, not a professional...no need to be bitter about competition.
