Gorgon Games is proud to present our very own miniature painting competition, The Gilded Griffin!
What is the Gilded Griffin?
The Gilded Griffin is Gorgon Games' ongoing celebration of miniature painting excellence. Held regularly throughout the year, each edition centres on a theme, giving painters a creative challenge and a stage to show off their work to the New Zealand hobby community.
Inspired by the great painting competitions of the hobby world, the Gilded Griffin is built for everyone from seasoned competition painters to hobbyists finishing their first army. What we're judging is craft, passion, and the story your model tells on the table.
