Gen Con 2026 - Miniature Painting Competition

This was a heck of a year for the annual Gen Con Miniatures Painting Competition! There was a record number of entries and even YouTube superstar Ninjon showed up for his first ever Gen Con (and stole the show).

Both Shawna and I entered this year. Shawna, as you all know, is our co-host on the Miniatures of the Multiverse and Reliquary Tower podcasts. This was her first year, and my third year. I included the professional photos the crew that put on the painting competition took of our entries in the video below and you can see how we did!
