Runefest sees the official launch of its first competition today

Runefest sees the official launch of its first competition today - the 'RuneFest Awesome Costume Competition'.

At RuneFest 2010 we were blown away by some fantastic costumes made by the community. Some took months to put together, others were stitched up on the way to RuneFest and all of them added to the flavour and spectacle of the event. You can check out photos of some of RuneFest 2010's costumes in the 'Last Year' section of the Runefest.com website.

This year we're keen to recognise some of RuneScape's finest tailors with our first 'RuneFest Awesome Costume Competition' and on each day of the event, will offering fantastic prizes to the best costumes, homemade armour and homages to RuneScape characters.

We're really looking forward to seeing what you come up with this year so let war(drobe) commence!

There are lots more RuneFest competitions to come so keep an eye on the 'Competitions' section on RuneFest.com for the very latest details.

Good luck!
