Contest Categories: The contest is split up into 4 categories, each with its own submission criteria, and each contestant may pick only one category:

Legendary - Paint this month's legendary model

Solo - Paint one single model from this month's release

Unit - Paint a unit of 5 small or 3 large models from this month's release.

Army (Blessed Sisters Only) - Send us a picture of your full army. Each army must have at least 30 models from OPR, and must include at least 1 hero model.

Rules: To participate, pick one category, and share a high resolution picture in square format via the Dropbox link below (leave a margin on the sides for re-sizing). Only one picture may be submitted, and you must use your Patreon username as the file name, or the submission will be discarded!

Submissions: https://www.dropbox.com/request/0CvJc2szfIIOEVRM0UzQ 

Deadline: May 25th

Not Allowed: Welcome Pack Minis, Loyalty Rewards, Terrain, Game Aids

The miniatures should be painted by you, no re-sizing over 5% is allowed, and only minor modifications are acceptable. By entering the contest you give OPR permission to share the pictures on our website and social media.

Prize: The community will vote for the best submissions, and the top 3 of each category will get Two special Reward Minis, plus a special 75% Store Discount. As a bonus, one other random participant from each category will also get the special store discount!

Happy Painting!

- OPR Team

Note: The special Reward Minis are not available for sale for the time being, but every few months we will swap them out with new ones, and the current ones will then be released via MMF for purchase.

Cool! Why not the empire for army painting? Not mad just wondering aloud.

George Dylan Prince

Because the army category now only applies in the month where the army is fully released. This month battle sisters are finished releasing. The old army category was replaced with the unit category.

Steve Thomas

So you're saying I don't have to paint my entire empire army in 20 days? What will I do with all my free time? Thanks for the reply!

Corrin Mana

What is the legendary model?

Chewy

Check the May Release Overview post. It's the Alien Hives Devourer Titan

Zachary Petriw

Correct. Last month was Ratmen for the army because it was the final Ratmen release. You can still paint Human Empire this month and submit it under Solo or Unit.

Just printed the captains on horses and want to thank the designers for making the little straps hanging off the horses thicker so they don't break when pulling off supports. The Sister Fanatics had supports that were too thin and mostly ripped off when you looked at them funny, but these ones so far are thick enough not to break. Thank you! Though I am nervous about the firing mechanism on those revolvers - it looks like it will break 100% if I accidentally touch it.

RE; Blessed Sister pictured...Is she a part of this month's release or a previous release? Intrigued because either way, I'd have that one to enter the singles category.

The pictured models are the special models you win if you place top 3 in the painting contest

I wish for reviews like this one every file on MMF. I never trust pre-supports from anyone any more. I spend hours supporting and then sanding STLs. I suppose sculptors don't print them before releasing them due to dead-lines. Some sculpts on MMF are so detailed and so poorly supported, I think they never used a 3D resin printer and they think they are going to design video games one day. I wish we could share our own supported files without pissing anyone off and losing accounts. We could all save some resin $$ and time cleaning vats and replacing FEP. - End Rant

OPR minis are generally quite well supported these days. There's exceptions here and there but I just print them as they are. I still sand afterwards to clean them up.

eventually

what is this months legendary model?

One Page Rules

Yes, when we rotate to new reward models, the old models will go on My Mini Factory.

Brett

Alien Hive Devourer Titan I believe

Kyle Toth

I have a question. Do the winners of the contest get a bottle of resin still?

Sora030

I would like to try to participate with the legendary Hive titan of this month; is it ok if I'm not using the tongues and the base? I'm trying to reduce the footprint of the mini, it's pretty big already for my display cabinet.

One Page Rules

No, right now the prizes are the promo models and the discount codes.

One Page Rules

In that past we've required the base for models like this.

TacoForce

I had to travel for work and had some technical issues with my printer so I'm getting started a little late, but if I keep my current pace I should have the nundam finished juuuuust in time!

Kaigen

is the deadline for the legendary still the 25th since it was a little later this month?

Jacob Baxter

Hey team! I’m a little bit shattered, I’ve been printing and painting flat out, (my little anycubic photon ultra will need a holiday after this), I wanted to challenge myself with the Legendary model, unfortunately I’m gonna fall just short, as I won’t have the base done in time. Im am however wondering if I could A)Submit without the base or B) just share my finished work with you in a day or two even If I can’t be considered for the painting contest, I’m pretty proud of my effort and have never painted in a competition before. Love your work!

One Page Rules

Unfortunately the base is part of the model. We will be thrilled to see the model when it is finished, but to be considered for the contest, and to be fair to everyone, it needs the base.

Jacob Baxter

I completely understand. It was an ambitious task 😂. I’ll have a nice show piece in any case
