The Gen Con Indy Tradeshow - August 14 - 17, 2008 - Indianapolis, IN (The Grandest gaming show of them all)

Gen Con Indy 2008 Painting Competition - Dark Sword Manufacturer Award

Ok, I will have 3 trophies made for 2008 Gen Con Indy (1st - 3rd). They are crystal and will look really nice. You can see Marike and Amy holding the trophies from last year by clicking here. We will aim to have the same exact trophies every year. We went for the perfect size of being able to be placed in a bookshelf or a display case, but still being large enough to have some serious heft to them. We are upping the ante this year for prizes once again.

1st place / Best in show for the best Dark Sword Miniature or Diorama receives: - Handsome Crystal Trophy, $300.00 cash and $300.00 in product. And a double-up component for a total of $600.00 cash and $600.00 in product if Dark Sword wishes to purchase the piece for their display cabinet and the painter wants to sell the piece to Dark Sword for our collection. So a painter that wishes to sell their winning piece to Dark Sword would walk away with $1,200.00 in cash and prizes!

2nd place receives: - Handsome Crystal Trophy, $100.00 cash and $100.00 in product

3rd place receives: - Handsome Crystal Trophy, $100.00 in product

Special George R.R. Martin Masterworks Prize Support

In addition to great the prizes above, George wanted to incent people to paint up Dark Sword figs from the George R.R. Martin Masterworks line. So he is throwing some swag into the mix as well. The top 3 Dark Sword entries with George R.R. Martin Masterworks miniatures in them will be able to choose in descending order based on their placing in the competition which of the following prizes they want. First place gets first choice and so on...George twitches on well painted miniatures just like I do.

Prize # 1 - A complete set of the DREAMSONGS audiobooks on CD, all three volumes (this is 43 CDs with 52 hours of stories on them - Wow!)
Prize # 2 - A copy of the Subterranean Press limited edition of FEVRE DREAM, in slipcase, with art by Justin Sweet (This is one hell of a read)
Prize # 3 - A copy of the Guardians of Order GAME OF THRONES rpg, deluxe leather hardcover edition (Very out of print and an outstanding resource book - SRP $99.99).

All of these prizes will be personally signed by George R.R. Martin as well.

Please note - that it may be possible to have 6 different Dark Sword winners as George's prizes will be given out seperate from our standard prizes.
