Get Involved! Spring Cleaning Hobby Challenge 2020
March 20, 2020 by crew
So, we've decided to kick off a new challenge for you since it's Springtime, a period of the year all about renewal and regrowth. We're asking you to crack out your old, broken, badly painted (yet still awesome) projects and give them a new lease of life.
Get Involved Here
All you have to do is delve into the Project Section and get building yourself a new entry which shows us your progress as you turn something old into something new.
How To Get Involved
Here's a rundown of what you need to do to be involved...
- Create a Project
- Click on the Drop Down Menu for Related Contest and choose Spring Cleaning Hobby Challenge
- Start by showing us what you began with, an old model, piece of terrain, army or something more esoteric like a diorama!
- Fill in your entries throughout the period of the contest showing us how you turned something old into something new
We can't wait to see what kind of projects you bring together for this one.
Prizes & More
Of course, it wouldn't be a challenge without some prizes thrown into the mix.
- The challenge will run from 20th April through to 20th June (which just so happens to be all of Springtime!) so you've got about a few months to develop your projects
Prizes will be given out to...
- Best Skill - The most skilled work, be it painting or overall finish.
- Best Tutorial - The person who shows us, in detail, the steps from start to finish
- Best Idea - You don't have to have finished your work to be able to produce something which showed great skill in the planning!
- Best Junior Member - Someone under the age of 16 will also win themselves a prize!
All entries will be judged based on the number of votes received in each of those categories and our own personal choices from here at the studio.
The prizes will be...
4x £50 Vouchers For The OnTableTop Store
So make sure you delve into this and get stuck in. We as part of the OnTableTop crew are most certainly going to be getting involved ourselves and showing off work we've been doing on our own armies.
Get involved!

Yeah! Now to find something to clean….
Nice. Maybe time to finally get around to stripping my 20-year old Catachan army and giving them a refresh…
Might be time to dust off my bolt action Germans ready for Stalingrad.
Great, just have to pick one of the many half finished projects I have floating about
What about just something that’s still boxed in the hobby pile, does that count?
sure
go nuts
@avernos I am in separation for up to 12 weeks. There may be a Cthulhu incident in my flat. Already working on Crowleys summoning circle…….
Can it be something half or even a quarter started that we then restarted or picked back up with? As opposed to be doing something new to something old? Or did I get my wires crossed in some way. Rather than do something new to something old.
My Sisters of Silence have been gathering dust for the longest time. I’ll crack on with them!
With basically just (this is a small joke) two platoons of infantry left to paint for my IDF Team Yankee army it could be time to dust off an old project. By The way two platoons of infantry at 15mm for WWII or WWIII is an insane amount to paint all in one go. The only thing I feel about painting them is that they are closer to be done with each item ticked off the list. My eyes are going crossed with the webbing. 🙂 So the above precludes me from working on my Warsaw Pact during this spring… Read more »
So many un-started/ half-charted/ brain thwarted/ full-hearted projects to choose from. Where to start? Does each have to be a separate blog or is “Spring Cleaning” the Project Blog and all various and sundry accomplishments go in?
Let’s go!!!
My contribution to Spring clean Challenge – I closed my only project.
Oh, and I tidied my painting desk, and put a new paint rack in.
