Paint local. Compete national.

Every Good Games store will host its own painting competition. The winner of each category at every store will advance to the Good Games National Painting Competition.

Three categories

01

One miniature. Every brushstroke counts.

02

Squad

A unified group that shows consistency, character and cohesion.

03

From store champion to national glory

Each store will judge its own competition using its standard competition procedures. Store teams will photograph the winning entry in each category for the national finals.

The national finalists will be judged by our panel, with the community also getting the chance to have its say.
