So, trying to condense some of the recent posts, it sounds like only Golden Demon standard painters should be allowed to vote because those who do not have those skills don't understand the paint job well enough to vote and that all entrants should paint exactly the same mini in order to remove any bias against sculpt/game system/mini material etc.
That's a crock, as they say.
How do you stop bias caused by people preferring blue colours to red colours?
