I say don't get discourage. Keep the works of those you admire as a guide and keep painting. Post even if you think its crap. And always keep your first painted models to compare them not only with someone else's work, but with your work after some years. When you see the difference, then that's encouraging enough.

2020-10-17 07:57:38 +0000 UTCAnother Patreon I support has a 2-tiered monthly contest. They do prizes for "best painted" and then random draws from everyone that submitted painted (or even just printed) minis. I think these prizes *are* sponsored by a manufacturer, so they can afford to spread the love around, but I like the 2-tiered system part of it. I painted for this contest as a challenge to myself, so I'm not fussed if I win anything... I got a fully painted model out of it! :-D

2020-10-16 15:37:33 +0000 UTCSome participation-to-qualify raffles would be neat, but personally I was keen to submit just to be involved, as I knew there was people better than I (and my printer really cant handle the details, xD).

2020-10-16 15:20:14 +0000 UTCIts too bad that newer painters with maybe less time than the obviously skilled and experienced painters never have a chance to win these painting contests... It is often discouraging to even bother putting the effort in. More painting contests should be random.
