    Warzone Diorama competition

    Prince August has announced a Warzone Diorama competition where you can win €250 worth of Prince August products.

    From their website:

    Free to enter, open to all customers, all we want is original photos of a well made diorama using our Warzone Mutant Chronicles miniatures. Any faction can be used, or combination of factions. Rules are as follows:

    • Diorama should contain at least 5 miniatures, fully painted, from any Warzone stock we sell.
    • Diorama should be exciting, but do not overwhelm the figures.
    • Please take photos of different development stages of the diorama as we will want to show others how the winner made the final piece. At least 6 supportive photos need to be included along with descriptive text.
    • Photos must be original, and not digitally manipulated excessively. Basic resizing, cropping and brightness and contrast alterations are allowed. No text or montaging is allowed.
    • Photos must be good quality and clear. No fuzzy images are allowed.
    • Photo must be sent as jpeg (.jpg) format only, but can be up to 500kb in size (I will resize them later to fit on the website) so do not over compress the file.

    Competition closes on July 31st midnight GMT. Then we will arrange an open vote so that all our customers may decide on the most exciting entry based on the following criteria: miniature paint quality, diorama building skill and photographic presentation. Results will be posted middle of August. Only one entry can win the 250 Euro Voucher.

    Photo Hints

    • Take photos using soft (diffused) natural light. No strong shadows.
    • Avoid using direct Flash photography. Take care to avoid shake by using a tripod or lay the camera on a flat surface before taking the photo. Use a timer to take the photo if possible to help reduce shake.
    • Please turn off timestamps.
    • Use digital manipulation programs prudently, we are not interested in seeing a heavily ‘enhanced’ composite of multiple images. The Diorama is made using real world materials.
