Many o' ye be knowin' I be not th' greatest fan o' paintin' competitions. However this year, in an attempt t' see many Corsair themed teams, I be runnin' a best converted/painted competition – th' best lookin' Corsair themed team will win a prize! What form that prize will take be still bein' determined, but it should be cool and probably piratey! So get thinkin' and start convertin' and paintin' :)

I know painting comps arent for everyone (I'm one they arent for), but this theme tickles me. So I thought I put an incentive out there to see if anyone bites and we see something amazing :)


It'll also make pipey happy for his Golden Gauntlet bonus points ;)
