• You're allowed to submit multiple entries to the contest. As many as you can paint.
• The mini can't be modified or kitbashed neither digitally nor physically.

• You can do minor tweaks like saturation, levels, etc.. to convert the .raw format file.
• You can't overpaint or edit certain parts of the picture in order to fix mistakes.
• Winners will have a 1 year cooldown for that position, so the 1st in this contest won't be able to be a winner again until Spring 2022 but the 2nd can still win the next one.
