About the Project

Thanks to the OnTableTop / Beasts of War coverage of Gen Con, I learned about the NOVA Open Charitable Foundation Raffle. Early Sep 2018 I received the (never-suspicious) email that I had won the Frog Jester from Dark Sword Miniatures' Critter Kingdoms line and painted by Tish Wolter. It arrived safe and sound and has found a role entertaining the troops in between Burrows & Badgers skirmishes...

Frog Jester - NOVA Open Charitable Foundation

Sep 20 2018

Beasts of War coverage at Gen Con put me on to the NOVA Open Charitable Foundation. They run online raffles for gaming and the one open during the convention had an array of incredible items on offer. There were complete master painted 30K and 40K armies, an X-Wing Scum & Villainy fleet with some beautiful custom painting, stunning single miniatures, even a Warlord Titan.

I believe $10 got you 10 tickets to distribute between the various offerings and one item I dropped a ticket on was the Frog Jester from Dark Sword Miniatures’ Critter Kingdoms range. An email arrived earlier this month saying I had won and they quickly packed it nicely and sent it my way.

The model is stunningly painted, a real showpiece by the artist Tish Wolter, a first time contributor to the NOVA Open foundation.

I have a couple of Critter Kingdoms models I use in Burrows & Badgers and they generally fit the range pretty well. This Frog Jester likely won’t see a combat role, but will make a great objective or the start of a collection of civilians for use in custom scenarios. Big thanks to Beasts of War for putting me on to this competition. Great prizes offered for good causes.
