  • We recently ran the largest miniature painting contest the world has ever seen.
  • We hold more sponsored contest than anyone else attracting sponsorship from over 40 companies this year alone including well know companies such as Avatars of War, Privateer Press and Rosemary and Co.
  • We created the first ranking based miniature painting league.
  • We will shortly be launching the first miniature Painting wiki.
  • We publish the only Monthly miniature painting ezine - Portal.
  • We conduct reviews that are scoring based and recieves awards if eligible - a first for the hobby.

Portal, Wamp's own monthly ezine launched recently to great success exceeding its monthly target in just 4 hours. It has since earned great reviews from readers around the world who are already eager for the next issue. It continues to be reguarly downloaded and will surpass 1000 downloads in 1 month alone. Each issue will remain available to download free of charge to all visitors permanently so each issue will gain further downloads as new readers look into back issues.


If you have a range of products based on or around the hobbies of Roleplayer gaming, Wargaming, or Miniature Figurine Painting then WAMP members are your targeted market. Even if your products do not relate to the hobbies it is still a good idea to advertise with us because WAMP is a vast community and for a lot of its members the first place to seek advice on books, video games, movies and much, much more.

What else can be done?

There are other ways to get your company and products noticed by the WAMP community. Why not sponsor one of WAMPs Miniature painting competition. These are generally held every couple of months where you provide prizes for first, second and third place and also get to judge the winning entries. Your company, as well as the WAMP site, then has permission you use any of the images of miniatures for promotional purposes.


Offer a product for review. WAMP has recently introduced a system where anything from game rules, tools, paints and miniatures can be reviewed and has the chance of obtaining a WAMP recommendation.

You can also join the WAMP community and take part in the magazines "Meet the WAMPers" article where members have a short interview and then provide two or three paragraphs of text about themselves. Use this space to promote your company and any products you have.
