Corvus Belli strikes back with the second edition of its most important painting contest. It will take place in the 4th edition of Interplanetario, in Vigo (Spain) on the weekend of July 28-30.
As you know, Corvus Belli is without a doubt one of the main players in the miniature wargaming industry thanks to its wargame, Infinity, and it’s range of sci-fi miniatures of the highest quality, a true attraction for showcase painters.
Traditionally, the company’s main target has been wargamers. The miniatures, of exceptional design and quality, are painted beautifully by it’s lead box art painter, Ángel Giráldez. Corvus Belli is upping the stakes on the painting and hobby aspect of its business and has announced the second edition of the Infinity miniatures painting contest, Warcrow.
The first edition was quite a success and we hope the second will have even more participants. There’s two more categories this year! Conversions are now welcome and have their own special category! Also, last year there were very juicy awards for all winners… so based on that I personally would not let the opportunity pass by any means… 😉 You’ve been warned!
By the way, do you remember who was in the jury last year?
This year we will repeat as part of the jury so we will be there to let you know everything about the show!
We leave you know with some official information about the contest:
