Hrm... no loot counters...
Let me explain... my game of choice is necromunda...
Now, consider loot in the underhive...

It inspires gangers to fight...

They should really not leave it behind...

And usually its all supplies (ammo, food, weaponry)

So I was thinking I'd be able to enter with three counters, and force me to work and update...
But i'll succumb to whatever final ruling you guys do

Loot counters = Objectives to me. Just make sure you follow the rules! good luck!

Got my heroic/inspirational dude done. Going to be a statue of a Blood Angels hero. Bunch of parchments describing his deeds all over the place. Its a marine on an old GW paint pot mounted on a 40mm base.

I guess this will be my inspiring one. Cause Da Prospecta's Da Best at gettin da Scrap!



He'll be on a large pile of scrap/loot with a squig perhaps. Waiting on a base to decide.

BIG OLD PILE OF SCRAP!

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

I'm in, will post WIP tomorrow

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"

"Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue"

it's a tribute to the citadel range from 1986:

Oh Childe, that's awesome xxx

bubble wrote:Oh Childe, that's awesome xxx

Ta very muchly

I'm considering other bases along the same theme

That is pretty cool Childe, you build that?

I got half of my statue done, just need to bronze the angel.

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...

its actually 0.5x1.0mm styreen strips, glued on its edge.

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?
