[Archive] Golden Hat #11 - Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer

Grimstonefire:

That would be acceptable Tarrakk

I actually changed the base limit thing as I moved this thread over, as you can see from the date it was sitting in the staff section a little while with the 20mm limit on it.  Hence the possible confusion.

I said in the last GH I think (or possibly the one before that) that we would try not to only limit models to game legal bases, as it allows people to do a bit more of a display model if they want to.

Obviously for those who want to game with their models they would need to either pin their models down and not glue, or just put them on 20mm from the start.

The 40mm based astragoth dreadnought models will not be considerd as unit strength 1.  Incase anyone was planning to do this. ;)  Just shrink it a bit it would probably be ok.

Bassman:

Hi,

not that I’m going to do it but is it possible to stick your sorcerer into a little diorama in a 40mm base?

As I told you I’m not going to enter with such an entry (I will stick on a vanilla 20 mm base) but it would be nice to see it made by some else… :slight_smile:

furrie:

I will try to enter, I already have a cool idea (already have the idea for about half a year). Just need to see if I can find the time to finish

Pyro Stick:

Well since ive got a WIP sorceror lying around, im going to try and enter this. If i can just think of a good colour scheme. Its going to be so obvious which entry is mine lol.

The Snowman:

I am guessing that it is only one entry per person…

I could do 2 or 3…

Now I’ll have to pick one.

Bolg:

Is the rule about the entry not having been shown anywhere before in force for this competition as well?

Thommy H
I was wondering the same, are you allowed to show WIP (not the finished model ofcourse) in your army blog? I see no reason why not it only shows the rest "what they are up against"..

(:

Ive posted wips of the model im entering in my blog so im guessing its fine. But dont have an ongoing wip update of your entry in your blog.

Bolg:

I thought as mugh.

This message was automatically appended because it was too short.

Tarrakk Blackhand:

Well, hopefully I can get something in. We’re expecting another baby @ Feb 1st.

Obsidian:

If I can find the sculpting time I’m in. :slight_smile:

centauro enano:

A question, if as conversion a sorcerer and you have shown in my blog but this still unpainted, may be used for the golden hat?

Loki:

Cool i will be entering as i have had a cool idea for ages but have held it back in case something like this came up :slight_smile:

Border Reiver:

Alright - I’ve got one that I’ve been waiting to update for an age - now’s the time.

Ogrob:

I’ve started on my entry. Should be able to get it done without uni work coming between this time.

Grimstonefire:

@Bassman

This is for single miniatures, anything else on the base should only be small, or part of the base (like a dead body etc).  Being a diorama would depend on what it was.  Say for instance someone wanted a sorcerer sitting at a desk on 40mm that would be ok, but it wouldn’t really look like a gaming model.  If anyone is thinking of doing a ‘diorama’ please pm one of the staff.

As pyro said, ongoing updates in blogs are not really what we want for this.  A model that has been shown unpainted before can be used, but we don’t want people doing a WIP painting guide or anything in a blog.

Booooring :P Make something new, unexpected, totally revolutiona... okay, I exaggerate, but it would be cooler, if you make something new, isn't it?

Balseraph:

In the end I do not know whether it can be daemonsmith - whether it Must be a sorcerer?

Grimstonefire:

Daemonsmith/ arcane engineer sorcerer.  All the same imo.  If it looks a bit like a sorcerer it’s all good.

Of course it’s not just me voting on this, and others may interpret the theme of the competition differently when deciding who to vote for.

Hazkar:

i have an unpainted sorcerer laying around here somewhere…if i can find it and paint it in time i´m in too
