Sordane Publishing Launches Painting Contest with Lost and Found Prize Bundle
Sordane Publishing's painting contest runs through April 7, offering a $90 Lost & Found physical and digital prize bundle for first place, with six days left to enter.
A complete Lost & Found miniatures set, delivered both as physical castings and a full digital STL collection, is the first-place prize in Sordane Publishing's active community painting contest, which closes April 7.
Sordane launched the contest on March 25 through its MyMiniFactory community page, cross-posting the announcement via Patreon and Discord. The full Lost & Found bundle carries an approximate value of $90, a notable figure for a publisher whose core business is digital STL distribution. The prize package includes both physical castings and the complete digital files, giving the winner immediate printable access alongside ready-to-paint minis. Second and third place each receive the full STL collection, valued at roughly $25 per winner. The Sordane Publishing team will select and announce winners after the April 7 close date.
Entry requirements are minimal by design. Paint any Sordane miniature, photograph the finished piece, and post it through MyMiniFactory, Discord, or tagged social channels within the window. Sordane opened the contest to the broader community rather than restricting it to Patreon subscribers or Tribes members, meaning any painter who owns or prints Sordane sculpts can enter regardless of subscription status.
The company operates on a monthly release cadence and maintains active communities across Discord, Tribes, and Patreon. This contest fits inside that regular engagement rhythm: Sordane uses these events partly to generate painted examples of its sculpts, which serve as both community content and implicit portfolio material for participating painters.
Late March through early April is a concentrated window for MyMiniFactory-linked contests, and submitted work sits in front of the platform's broader audience. For painters tracking commission opportunities or portfolio exposure, that visibility runs alongside the prize competition itself.
Six days remain before the April 7 cutoff, and the Lost & Found set goes to whoever makes the most of them.
