Wayland Games Winter Miniature Painting Competition
Many of us may have had a hobby break over the festive period but some of our staff chose to take some time to work on their building, painting, and general creativity by immersing themselves in this here competition…
Welcome to our Winter Miniature Painting Competition!
Winter with elements of a beast was the criteria - fur, fang, wings, claws… you get the picture! We wanted a winter beast and Ted, Luna, and Bertie (our #officedogs) just didn’t cut the mustard - even if they did come in wearing their Christmas jumpers.
Mandatory festive/wintery photo of staff on #christmasjumperday - with dogs included, of course!
So, what beastly winter miniatures were painted? Your answers are all here, in this very blog you see. How very helpful.

Awards
A fantastic job completed by all staff who took part - Daz was overly impressed with seeing how far entrants have come on their painting journey since we started running our regular painting competitions.
So, without further ado, awards were as follows:
