The Results are IN!
This just in from BrenCon 2010.
The Crappy Mini, Crappy Painting, Crappy Contest is OVER!
Participants were allowed to choose a haphazardly assembled Space Marine, and were asked to paint it in only 15 minutes using whatever paints they were able to "draft" before the round began. Sharing of paints was encouraged, and some number of the paints were duds (dry, ruined, etc).
From the start of the bell until "BRUSHES DOWN!", every single contestant gave their Space Marine a pigmentation that would strike fear into the hearts of the enemy. Some painted so hard they busted the arm right off their figure.
The round one [metal] [creature] designations are IN!
SLAMcevich - Iron Lung
Micro - Golden Skittles
Pygmaelion - Titanium Dodo
Doomulus Prime - Silver Panther
Max_Power - Pewter Raven
Brennor - Slippery Nipple
Hayabusa - Cobalt Ninja
Vardaen - Kryptonite Walrus
And our Round One Winner/Loser!
TwistedNumber - Rusty Duckling
Pics will be up shortly. There WAS ~in fact~ a round TWO as judged by Vardaen (since he could not be trusted not to bribe the officials unless he was the officials .
All told, 18 Space Marines got their stripes, proving once and for all that you CAN paint 2 squads of figures in 30 minutes. You just need 9 contestants, no sleep for the previous 2 days.
This event was popular enough to be a top contender for return at BrenCon 2011.

Re: The Results are IN!
As it turns out Round 2 results were actually fixed, as I recieved a bribe from an unrevealed source -- I won't say who, but you *know* who *you* are! Because of this, all of round 2 results are to be throw out with the bathwater. The new results are as follows.
TwistedNumber - Shiny Bingo Chips
Hayabusa - Bloody Marshmallows
Brennor & Micro - Twin Lascannon Glorious Gretchen Flingers
Max_Power - Bubblegum in Your Hair
DoomulusPrime - Lock and Key, Ball and Chain, Black and Blue
Pygmaelion - HEL-LO Kitty, How YOU doin'
SLAMcevich - Rising Phoenix Strike of Dry Ramen Noodles
jigglypuff69 - Mean Green Nosepicking Machine!

Re: The Results are IN!
Haha, great names, V!
The painting contest was a huge success this year, for sure! I still think it is hilarious that micro & I (who were sitting on opposite ends of the table) painted using nearly exactly the same color scheme with no communication in any way.
