Will take a few weeks...

[quote=[So]Rice]I'll so an Ultramarine and a Thousand Sons.

Are we doing matching bases this time? If we can get a resin base company to sponsor this, I don't mind painting and flocking all the bases.

We'll be happy to do a base for this event! If everyone can get a rough idea together we can refine a concept and get them made up then sent to you. We could do 40mm bases with Dakka Legion Conclave 2011 around the border or something We're doing some bits for a tournament in NY along similar lines.

Welcome all new members

Al added to the list

Okay, if you could clarify on the Basing. I have my GS out and my old 2nd edition Ultramarine Captain ready to convert to a Lunar Wolf. If you can confirm the Basing I can smash this miniature out asap. Also to assist the Pre-Heresy feel I recommend people put up the base Colour Scheme (Paints) even if painted in different styles the base colour should tie them together. For Lunar Wolves I would suggest a Fortess Grey with a slight turquoise wash to give a slightly greenish tint.

Awesome

That would be amazing if you would be prepared to do that for us!!!

Something to do with urban basing would be fantastic

[So Rice has volunteered to paint all the bases but if anyone else is keen just shout as im sure he wouldnt mind sharing the workload

Wouldn't mind if a base could possibly be sent to me?

So I can balance the Raptor I'm going to end up using as the model on it - Admittedly a raptor without a jump pack but he's going to be fidgetty to base.

Just had to go for the leaping pose really - it screamed Night Lord. And I can imagine them already modifying their armour for the whole TERROR aspect.

Well I think we have that donation of bases so that will be fantastic

[So]Rice has volunteered to paint the bases so if you are prepared to paint your marine up and just loosly attach him to the base that will be great

Regarding the colour scheme that would be an awesome idea to have some form of unity
I reckon the easiest way would be for everyone doing the same type of legion would be to post their colours and chat amongst themselves

Sure mate

Once the bases have been sorted im sure I can get one sent across to you
Might be a while though

Here is my raven guard - work in prog definitely but some idea as to where its going - I may add a few small GS detals, more shadows and highlights and there is going to be freehand symbols and insignia.

hi all

couple of quick concepts for the bases for approval / boos / input from everyone. There is the possibility of engraving chapter names but we would need to know at least a few weeks in advance what everyone was doing. The scroll can be left blank for people to freehand etc thei

40mm display surround for 25mm base. The recess can be left blank for people to customise them to theirr own design

...or we could make some 25mm panels to drop in, eg paving slabs. Or we could just do 25mm bases with the banner scroll on this base rather than the large surround. The chapter scroll would stand proud of the paving of course

Let us know what you think!

Harry - Warmill


Sorry just saw how ridiculously huge the images were ill upload some smaller ones tomorrow!

custom dakka conclave bases? sounds awesome ^_^

i think 40mm conclave bases that can hold the standard marine bases would be great.

especially because that way everyone can paint the standard 25mm base and mount the marine on it without a lot of extra shipping and extra work for smurfwedge ^^

btw,if we decide to let someone make all the 25 mm bases,here are some of my bases. nevermind the edges on the rust bases as they were a quick rust test-painting

I will do Iron warriors and Blood angels if that is ok!(?)

Look sweet, nice rust!

Re-uploaded the pics, the originals brought my phone to a standstill, still not sure why



40mm display surround with a recess for a 25mm base and embossed text



We could do a 25mm insert for the recess with a future paving slab style or as suggested let people use the standard base to customise it as they wish.

I like the idea of a base that a smaller base can be mounted into. Because it lets me start on the model earlier! Otherwise I'd be waiting for the other base - I am going to have to put some work into basing him but it's worth it for the leaping Raptor!

Welcome mate

Signed up to Dakka to join in with this!

I will do Imperial Fists if I may?

Edit: Since SoRice is doing Fists, I change my call to World Eaters.

ok guys(and girls?)

i was talking to smurfwedge and we think it would be great if we had a conclave logo!

i made a quick photoshop concept:





the idea is that this is the main logo for the conclave and, depending on the project, we can add extra text between "the" and "conclave" (space marine,dakka,eldar(if we have an eldar project),a space marine helmet or whatever)

for this project for example we can add "pre-heresy" to make it "the pre-heresy conclave"

we would like feedback/ideas from you guys and would like to know if someone here is a photoshop wizard

I can do the photoshop if you tell me what you want from it.

that was quick,thx.

im off to work now,but i guess ill have some time to draw some concepts and ill pm you asap ^^

Thats cool man. I'm at work.

We could use the photoshop file as the basis to create the base for this project. So we could make the checkerplate and banner part as a 25mm base and then perhaps do the bevelled surround as a separate part with the pre heresy, dakka dakka, Dark eldar, etc text on it.

Not sure why the pics I uploaded last night keep playing up i'll have a look at them as soon as I get in from work.

Well the pics work on my pc and laptop but not phone. Colour me confused

Sounds good to me mate

I have a painted Salamander which was stylised after a Pre-Heresy model. If it would be acceptable I would send it.

And, as I finally have some free time I could also paint a Pre-Heresy Thousands Son marine.

I'll do Sons of Horus! According to canon* the Lunar Wolves were renamed (admittedly only a few months) before the heresy. The Emperor Himself sanctioned the renaming after the Ullanor Crusade.

That and sons of Horus have my favourite colour scheme. The corpsey green is soo cool.

*Novels and thirdparty cardgames are superseded by Rulebooks, WD articles and sourcebooks.

You are quite correct mate
That will be great then

Actually, I'll move the Salamander to the other conclave, but the Thousand Son will stay the same. However, I'll instead do a Pre-Heresy Word Bearer in place of the Salamander.
