Airbrush Competition – Slavic Gods and Demons

Hi everyone, this is just an announcement. I decided to let our readers know that Polish Airbrush Portal has started an international airbrush competition.

To underline the fact, I have nothing to do with its organization and I am a bit ashamed of it. But I’m thinking of joining the competition and airbrushing something.

What is the most interesting here is the topic of competition. Slavic Gods and Demons. In case you are not familiar with the topic I’d recommend to check some wiki pages about Slavic mythology or mythological figures.

The easiest way to get the feel what it is all about, just use Google image search and look for Slavic gods or Slavic demons. The is a ton of info and images out there so you can get some inspiration.

Update that was made by airbrushlab. They decided to add another prize to competition. So now, beside the professional jury, the team of airbrushlab.pl is going to choose one happy owner of custom made air compressor. They also left a note that anyone who gets the prize can voluntarily give it away to any other artist involved in competition (if the winner would like to ;))

What more to add? As the competition is international to participate in it you must be over 18 years old. All the rules are also available in English at the bottom of this original site. Also check all the links I have posted as reading might also help your imagination.

If something is not clear, just ask. Otherwise share it with your airbrushing friends, so as many people can join the competition.

Cheers.
