Alright dakkers here we are going to have a contest. A objective contest because what is warhammer without any good objectives? The reward will be going to first place and second place. There are rumors it will be forge world type prizes!! Here is the down low.

SEPTEMBER 3rd DEAD LINE FOR THE OBJECTIVES ENTER WHENEVER!
First place will be winning 50$ of Galorns very own bases for the objective round!


We need a work in progress shot of each of your objectives.
Each objective must be at least half Games Workshop.
No Objective can be on a base larger than 60mm round base.

Last and most important.

The objective styles must be!
Heroic - This a objective to inspire your troops/ be epic
Left behind - Ooops...we shouldnt have left that here its important....
Supply - PILLS HERE!! eh you get the idea.


You will be judged on by a mysterious pannel of crazed mini philanthropists. They will be looking at these catagories:
Basing
Painting
Theme - Consistancy - a important sub catagorey
Conversion

OTHER IMPORTANT THING WE NEED A GROUP SHOT AND A WIP SHOT OF YOUR OBJECTIVES

The pannel of judges is still growing a tad to insure all fairness is kept!

hehe, oh the plans

Depending on my schedule I might be able to do this... would be fun!

You always need a objective!

cormadepanda wrote:You always need a objective!

Too true!

Any points for humor?

I am a little curious about your title cormade... "Objective Terrain"? Do you want objective markers, or do you want terrain pieces? They aren't necessarily the same thing.

Gitsplitta wrote:I am a little curious about your title cormade... "Objective Terrain"? Do you want objective markers, or do you want terrain pieces? They aren't necessarily the same thing.

Well in one mission there is claim a peice of terrian as an objective. So Objective markers are what we are looking for but a small peice of a terrian can be a objective. So objective terrian is what boiled down to...

In reality i play both as either or but we are looking for objectives up to a 60mm base size. Plenty of room for free will and fun.

The plan is to have this as an ongoing terrain contest, but we're starting off with Objective markers to ease people in then challenge them more as we go on.

Awesome, welcome to the madhouse factory of fun and frolics (preferably clothed) Vik!

Do loot counters count as objective markers?

If loot counters are something defined in rules as something different from Objective markers then no sorry.

Got my first one assembled this morning! just waiting on a base to arrive for it.

Awesome to hear Dork...

I may be posting a wip of my own tomorrow I think, for the Judge Vs. Judge part of the comp!!!

Oh childe it will be fun.

Childe asured me you be joining

Thought i'd drop by and throw in my entry, It is kind of a cheat because I've only just finished it when I saw this thread, Also I should probably be disqualified because although there are GW bits, the majority isn't =o

Anyway, my slaanesh inspired objective....the implications boggle the mind....:

Well J-paint I think you just raised the bar considerably. Im working on a lousy book on a aisle, a statue, and a missile rack.

hey J-paint... isn´t that the freebee lady from ramshackle games? i always wanted to have her too...just for painting purposes tho

yay! i am in!!!

and guess what...? i raided the bitzbox and combed my mind and i already have the three needed concept nailed down pretty good... but i will try to work on these in earnest not before the 3rd of august...as i need the time for something else still

can´t promise earnest stuff tho... asi think this competition has it for me to do some weird stuff... of course all legal to the rules...

speaking of... 50% GW... so a totally scratchbuilt OM wont be able to enter? just checking...

If its completely scratch built that is perfectly fine. If you are using a GW base, it must be half GW at the end.

Good job I added the lamp to mine as before it was 90% plasticard 9%base and 1% GW

now you can color me confused...???

so if i totally scratchbuilt something... then 100% without GW parts is viable? but if i start adding non GW stuff i have to count stuff?....or am i a bit dense at this time of the day? remember to be polite... i have had a hard family day

If start GW base 50 gw at end. If start at kustom den gw no matter. if you add GW it no probz

would you be more relaxed if he instead spent more time with yours?

The thinking of it is that if you were to game at GW you have to mave the majority of a model as GW parts, if it's scratch built GW don't tend to be bothered by it. so if your building it from bits 50% need to be GW parts, whereas if its scratch built none of it needs to be... but feel free to embelish it with GW parts if you want.

I will say this, and I hope panda agrees I don't think the base should count towards or against the models as to whether it is GW or not... so long as it conforms to the base size rule It's fine no matter what.

Update: I have thought of 2 of my 3 for my Traitor Guard/CSM objectives. Is there a preference on base size? Terminator size? Small round?

The largest they can be is 60mm bases, but they can be 60/40/25mm its your choice!

Gitsplitta wrote:That's a fantastic figure... where'd it come from?

It's "Da Prospekta" from GorkkaMorkka. Found it on Ebay but he's too weedy to include in the army so he's decoration.

Ah! Still... great figure. Looking forward to seeing what you do with him.

Reet, I guess its time for me to reveal my entry for "Heroic"

Yup it's pure plasticard with a bit of a SM arm for the light on tip

oh and its on a 60mm base lols... as its in scale with 28mm miniatures

Very impressive. I have no gift for plasticard work. My experiments usually end in giant embarrassing train wrecks.

40kFSU wrote:Very impressive. I have no gift for plasticard work. My experiments usually end in giant embarrassing train wrecks.

In honesty, that is the first thing that I've built which is completely plasticard... everything else has had plasticard added to it.

The only advice I can give is get your measurements first, and be accurate as possible, then take your time with a sharp blade and a steel ruler.

Thanks for your kind words as well, I'm reserving comment on peoples entries until its time for me and panda vote lols, then I won't seem biased towards anyones work (I hope )


Now onward to planning base number 2

wow... that is cool looking childe? i am quite perplexed...
most of the work i can figure out how you probably had done it... but how did you do those tiny window panes??? is that just 1mm rod of styrene? awesome...and please do a scale shot... cant believe it from that angle that it is indeed 28mm scale...

at 40ksu...

i specially like those blue and white checkered tiles...makes it look quite noble...

side question... if i am feeling up to it... i might make another one... so number four then... we are allowed to enter two entries to one category? which entry will then be judged? and we are allowed to inculde full minis...as seen above with slavetodorkness and 40ksu?

only asking because i have for quite a long time a champoin of the emperor lying around with no use for me... would make a great statue too...

your allowed up to five objective markers as one entry, three must be in the themes stated in the OP, but any additional's would have to be repeats of the any of the three themes, but not necessarily the same as, so you can do "heroic" twice with two completely different counters!!!

and the whole entry sum will be judged as a whole? will my chances increase when i enter more than three? you gotta do the maths after all^^ ... new hobby stuff doesn´t gow on trees you know

As on the OP:

You will be judged on the following.

"Basing
Painting
Theme
Conversion "

I feel I need to add "Consistency" to the list as well, due to there being a minimum of three bases. so all bases need to be painted consistent with your painting skills and modelled accordingly as well. doing more than three bases doesnt improve your chances, but it gives you an oppertunity to show off your skills.

hope that helps.

aha!... ok... i keep that in mind...

but even tho consistency is a sub feature... it is surley possible to base differently...?

ah heck... i think i know what this is all about and we can get this all done

Ok, so have thrown this together. Will hopefully have it painted up in the next few days - guess it would be a "Heroic" marker

All GW stuff + some crappy GS intestines.

and there i thought it was for the left behind category^^

Dam I was almost tempted to try this is out but 3 bases, plus I have no idea what the hell objective markers are ? as I don't play so I am totally dumb struck

But good luck with the comp, and that Dr who box is friggin awesome …… I hate you even more now

Right, here's the start of objective No.2

now that is a cryptic one...

are your´s also aiming for those categories? if so what was the tardis standing for?

TARDIS is "Heroic" or "Supply Drop"

No.2 is "Left behind"

ok... the second one will then be quite interesting...

this is a very inspiring and interpretive comp...

Viktor von Domm wrote:ok... the second one will then be quite interesting...

Thats what Panda and myself were hoping for!

well for me, I'm using this comp as a much needed boost in ability for scratch building. but also in later rounds I'll be adding to things needed for Calliope

Ha! That thing is looking great Hobofisherman!

My first thing is done. Ive been playing with bronze because whenever they release a new vanilla marine codex Im doing Minotaurs. I think Ill forgo the Griffon Sephia next time.So here he is.

Blimey that was quick painting... I can't even paint my first one until I buy some new paints... plus building/converting/modelling is where my skills lay anyways, and I'm happier building

So whats the plan for No.2 40Ksfu?

Very nice! I think that's one of the best over-all statues I've seen in a long while.

also, remember people to post a picture of all three of your entries when they are completed, that way we can link it on the front page to your name so Panda and myself can review it when the deadline has arrived.

many thanks!

Thanks gents. And I consider anything from Gitsplitta to be high praise. As for #2, Im thinking about using some of my DA bits to make a dais and a book. That seems like the kind of thing they wouldn't want misplaced or forgotten.

WOWOWOWO i leave for a day and so much has happened! i like the statue its well executed. And dr who booth? WUT nids..need to time travel.. All is going well. Childe PM me about consistancy and explain further. Thanks!

Done and done

at 40ksu... that is a stunning piece...! looking really good... tho i would ahve loved to see it done in copper with verdigris weathering... but that´s just a personal issue^^

and at childe...well you´ve shown already quite some talented stuff!

Love all your work guys, the bronzing on the statue is lovely

If only we can get more.. did i put vik on the roster?

i did indeed. This goes well.

As panda said, save it for the later rounds, as this opening round is just to ease people in... Round 2 is going to be a doozy too btw

awww.... i will finsihs it anyway^^... thankfully it was my second idea to the category^^

ok... i stick to the base sizes now!

Good Vik... *gives you a biscuit*

Jesus! that was vecious! Ok childe we can be soul mates

@Viktor- Thanks and I thought about doing the bronze weathering but 2 things stopped me. Ive only done it once, poorly, and I want there to be at least one non worn out/demolished monument in the Imperium.

Up next really basic one- Thing that shouldn't have been left behind.

Company Champion to his buddies:

"Yeah, I told them they didn't want any of me, that I was like, all Guilliman'd out. That I was feeling the Primarch and all but did they listen? Psht, no they didn't listen. (begins to re-enact fight) So they came at me and I was all like get this and take that and chopping things off! I wasn't even tired , man! Then this real big one came at me. What? Yeah, thats his head over there don't interrupt me, man, I'm Champion. So I grabbed my sword and said you want some? And he hit me and knocked me back but, naw I wasn't hurt, and I was like.......................hey, wait..................(looks around)....hey....(nervously asks).........where's my sword?"

well done 40kfsu

thats awesome dude!!!

at 40ksu... LOL... that dialogue... sweet !!!

and that new objective marker... is it for "left behind"?

and i see your point mate... there must be some stuff in the grim dark that is not totally ruined and weathered... after all new stuff get´s produced en masse in the IoM every freaking day...

Subbed and following along but not entering unless I get a huge chunk of time that frees up.

Yeah I saw that and thought you were going to enter it as an objective tbh lols... shame your not!!!

me? shaming ...what for... and the UFO as an objective marker? never thought about it that way... actually i want it as a vehicle/flyer... and the build as such gives me a hard time too... the weapons don´t want to be attached in a good way... and i would love to add plates but the shape of the plates always gets wrong...

If the plates won't stick, why not cast it up as is then model onto the cast peice... there's more than one way to skin a cat

true that... but i am no casting guy... at least for another ten years i bet... needs lots of room and all that...


but know that you mention it... i could add a new surface with miliput and then carve small structures into the materail...

Got my bases today!

::scampers to attic to start on base for Objective::

wooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

seriously though, great news!!!

Alright I'm entering!

I'm just finishing them and using the brand new GW objective kerjiggers to make them look cool and more importantly - very usable in game! ie roll the obj dice and place it on the objective.

Oh noes! I missed that part! I only took a few WIP pics. Well here they are:

WIP

Here's the "Inspiring" one with a wounded Angels of Absolution (the chapter I play) Marine. This is before I decided to use the GW Objective Marker set and I had a banner on there instead. Scraping it off was a PITA.



Here's the collection of all 6, still WIP. I haven't added the washes, snow, some extra basing, or a couple highlights - or a clearcoat!


Sorry for bad quality - they are basically "oops" pictures since I totally forgot to get real WIP shots. :(


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Aaaaand here's the finished products! I did them rather quickly, so I could start using them straight away! I'm sure I'll get clobbered in the competition as a result, but hey - I'll be playing with them tomorrow!

So the whole theme is meant to go with both of my armies. I play the Angels of Absolution (a 2nd founding Dark Angels successor) and I'm slowly starting Imperial Guard. The AoA is based with rocks/slate and snow, while the IG are based in urban rubble and snow. They blend nicely and I used both basic 40mm bases and urban rubble resin 40mm bases. I like this size for objectives as they can go about anywhere and don't cover too much space, yet still allow some cool stuff to be shown. So far it seems everybody else thinks so too!

So first my favorite - the wounded marine. He's fighting his last, and you either are going to save him, get his gene-seed, or recover the information he's retrieved about the fallen! He's meant to be in the Inspiring category.


Next up is a console of some sort. It's clearly technological and important! Maybe it's inspiring, maybe it got left behind, or maybe it's just a supply! Who knows!? You can see it with the objective dice being used.



Fuel is always important! Here's some barrels that armies can fight over - they both need the supplies. Once you throw the dice on, it looks pretty neat.



This mystery container got left behind! The armies need to retrieve it to protect, retrieve, destroy, or use its contents.


Here's some things you'll want access to: a teleport homer and a vox-caster! Call in reinforcements!


The ammunition can never be ignored. These supplies are something everybody wants.



And here's all 6 of them together! I made 6 because it's the max amount of objectives that can be in a game. Also there were 6 of those sweet servo-skull-dice-holder dealies.


I hope you guys like them! I'll be paying attention to see what you guys come up with too!

Wow! Those are fantastic!

Workin on it... workin on it...

Question tho: Must I use round bases, or could I also use square ones, or even cavalry bases?

Well, how about this one? Also working on the missile rack.

I've got my second one figured out and am currently puzzling out a way to mount Da Prospekta on the ridiculously crowded bases I bought. lol

Third one will be the "Left Behind" one but I just gotta dig up some ammo crates that fit upon a 40mm base. This one will be ammo that some Grots have accumulated but got left behind during a surge of WAAAGH! from Da Boyz. I was inspired by some Grot crew models I got from FW. Should be pretty cool.

I have run to the problems of lack of parts

MauS wrote:Workin on it... workin on it...

Erm... good question!

I think its best to use bases that fit the system of choice... so if it's 40k/Necromunda round bases would be better.

yup... still not fully started the work week for real... as i work at school and the first graders are still to be starting next monday... lots of preparations and stuff...god... i today copied thousands of pages from books...urgh...

Can I make a suggestion for the future?

Perhaps, since there are a possible 6 objectives in a 40K mission, we could do another round of 3 objectives later on as well? Giving us a whole 6 afterwards?

Actually it's a shame neither panda or myself had thought of that... otherwise we would have limited the counters to a solid three other than the three to six we have listed on the OP.

Tis a shame... c'est la vie.

Well Round two is already planed (which is my domain lols), which will hopefully stretch everyone's skills

Oh boy everyone I saw some objectives. Panda approved!!

I may be dumb, or it's my lack of coffee, but I don't see anything about how many objectives to enter. Only the three categories. That's why I thought it was three.
No matter though.

Well Round two is already planed (which is my domain lols), which will hopefully stretch everyone's skills

Looking forward to it!

OK, so I got off my ass last night and built my last two objectives plus the base for my first one. I even got pics of them before I primed them, only to have the site go down and I couldn't post them!

So, here we go!

Base for Prospekta:


Just added a bit more scrap to the resin base to make him look like he was standing on a pile of it. This will be my "supplies" entry.

Second one will be my "left behind" one. Mainly because of the look on the Grot on top's face. I know the pic isn't good enough to see but it screams "where'd da Boyz git off to?"



The third Grot on the separate base will be integrated behind the crate. It will be crowded but Grots don't have an idea of "personal space".

Lastly will be my "motivational" one. I found this in my pile of "to-do" stuff in the Ork section of my workspace (you have no idea how much crap I have!). It is very suited for this purpose!



Better pics will be posted after paint (these are just from my phone) but you get the gist of where I'm headed.

Really nice stuff SlaveToDorkness. There is some pretty steep competition on this thread! Here is the last of mine and the group shot.

I loath the speed with which you crank stuff out, FSU! lol

I really like your three objectives though, so it's a wash!

Sculpting has commenced on my final objective marker of 3.. its going to be slow... but worth it for my geekness

"oh, his geekness is his weekness..." lalalalalala

However count me in for the next round, but please break down the requirements for us none players or fluff readers I am slightly pissed that I did not no what the hell was needed

lols 3 objective markers are the minimum you can have, and the max is 6 so no we're not demanding lols... just going by the rules

and...horatio cane is so awefull.... i seldom watch this show....it is totally hilarious to see him take of his shades and make that constigated look... something in me then feels the urge to belt him over with a spanner....

lols, I'm more of a Matt Smith person than a David Tennant for the modern ones Vik but yes, I am just rekindling my love of Doctor Who. As next year is the 50th anniversary of the show, and GW used to produce some minatures of DW back in the 80's. so any excuse to involve one of my biggest loves.

Yeah Gary Sinise was good in The Stand, but its been a very long time since I've seen it tbh

long time... more like eons^^

since you are one of the guys here that is totally in with the doc... as i never really started to watch any dr. who... where would be a good point to geeeeently ease my way into that whole scheme?... any series i should start with... i dunno if i can cope with the really old stuff... or should i do nevertheless?

Well clearly everyone here is off --objective. Yeeaahhhhh. Sorry LDD should of helped you out, you could have sent me a PM mate!

Just a little more off topic. I have seen that guy with the shades on commercials for CSI Miami, but have never seen the show. I just don't have the coping skills. I do know the character takes himself extremely seriously. I find his name very fitting and impossibly funny.

In fact the more I think about Horatio the funnier it is! I may have to catch a rerun.

actally i think this whole talk somehow insoires me for the competition.... i think a lil objective marker dedicated for that redhead is in order....

No problem guys but count me in next time for sure,but just be as clear as possible as to the requirements I am a bit slow

Horatio wears sun glasses at night, nothing more to say

twinkly vampire???

Well I'd suggest if your wanting to watch the new stuff to start from Christopher Eccleston tbh, as you can see the show evolve properly from when it was brought back in '05. it's the only way imo. Fair warning though, Matt Smith is like a child with genius complex teaching a class of pupils older than him just after ingesting a bag of sugar or three.

ah so it is a dalek mutant... good to know...and everything is done with great finesse!!!

Ha nice job, love the K9 great job with the PC and wire I wondered what the hell the last one was at first nice GS however you could have done with some more scenery around it IMHO.

Sorry patience is not my strong point just want to see you do a proper job no half assed attempts

Charger acquired 1st of 3 objectives at half way point. WiP photos soon <3

Really nice Childe. That's a clever theme for your objectives.

Haha, thanks, I thought so lols... I remembered seeing the old Doctor Who mini's at Warhammer World in nottingham last year and the idea just clicked... plus any excuse to do something Doctor Who related

Just a little proof I am back in action.

very cool looking joeyfox...has he stumbled or was he injured?

Still trying to figure that out. The depression will be swamp, so more likely to stumble than not. If I feel it would be more prudent to have him injured, I'll modify it before finalizing. He won't be attached until I'm satisfied with everyone and begin water fx

ah swamp will be truly nice to oggle over... and injured i think would be the ideal choice... just a mere stubled officer i think wouldn´t be instantly recogizable...

love whats coming along mates! really really love. And childe great work, i am going to start mine when i hit home and get some wips up.

So peoples, we have just under two weeks until deadline, now lets see some really awesome markers for the closing date!!!

Good luck people!

i think we could of been a little more tactful, but then that wouldn't of been nearly as impressive.

true Panda

*ouch*.... i thought whips are so medival... don´t you have tasers for those jobs?

Tasers have a tendency to make people pass out... whips are far more enjoyable to use

Oh childe... how you know my lingo.

aww man, a bit late for me to enter now.... count me in for the next round.

Its never too late, I still need to paint my entries...

well.... for such torture methods... scalpels would work better

Viktor von Domm wrote:well.... for such torture methods... scalpels would work better

dude, your doing it wrong... bamboo shards, slipped into the nail bed, slowly. It is the only way.

how about battery acid that slowly climbs up your body from the feet up?

no, its not slow enough Panda.

there is the tried and tested method of tea-towel twisted into a firm roll, inserted into the victims mouth, allowing it to soak the stomach juices and ripped clean out. It will pull the stomach out with it.
