Painting will be judged by me using a rubric. I will be using the rubric from Adepticon 2016 with two modifications. Here is a link (see page 4 of the url) http://www.adepticon.org/wpfiles/2016/201640Kchamp.pdf
1. Display Boards will NOT be part of the rubric.
2. Any player receiving more than 30 points will qualify for the second round of scoring instead of 37 points as their rubric did. This means the max score is 33 (30 from first round of judging and 3 from second round). Please keep in mind that painting will not reflect in your overall score nor in your ITC points earned at the event and is purely being judged for purposes of the best painted award.

This is the second tournament that will be done at this location as part of an ongoing monthly series of ITC events. Please post any questions in this thread and I hope to see everyone there!

Below are a some pics from our first event. Everything went of without a hitch and all who attended seem to have a great time!
