BATTLE CRY Hobby Competition RETURNS….safely!

2020 was a year lost to uncertainty and many businesses laid-in-wait as we all had hoped to return to life as we knew it. It was no different for The Battle Standard and as such we opted to forgo our annual events, most notably, BATTLE CRY. This year has brought the hope of a full return and yet with rising numbers of the Delta strain of COVID-19 our state has cautioned businesses to be prepared for a return to lock-down. Where does this leave BATTLE CRY Hobby Competition 2021 you may ask?

On September 25th BATTLE CRY will absolutely return! Of all the events that we host THIS event may very well be the safest in regards to the pandemic. Our ability to accept your entries at the door whilst masked, display them in a mask-mandatory and socially distanced manner, live stream the judging and awards, and then return your entries and trophies to you safely is not only possible but currently in the works. Thus we WILL be bringing New England’s largest miniature painting, kitbash, and conversion competition to you on September 25th. Our competition will celebrate all the hard work put in during this uncomfortable closure as hobbyists took to the workbench as a way to pass the time. Diving into imagination and creativity is what we do and we had more time than ever to produce new work. It’s time to show it off!

To celebrate the human spirit our special category this year will be Historical / Modern Humanity. This category allows artists to enter human figure miniatures from any time period in human history to date. So whether you’ve been painting Victorian Academics, WWII soldiers, or Clark Kent on his way to the office. we want to see your best!

Please prepare to join us and celebrate the hobby as we all know and love it!

All proceeds from this event will be donated to cancerresearch.org in memory of our friend and fellow hobbyist, Brittney Anthony.
