Subject Matter: Legendary Lords (and heroes)
This theme is wider than it may seem at face value. For this contest we want you to enter with anything involving named characters, be they Chaos Dwarf, Centaur, Hobgoblin or other sorts!
Do you have a classic model of Astragoth or Draz-ho-ath festering in your kitchen cupboard just waiting to be painted? Maybe you’d like to paint a diorama of Zhatan beating the fudging grudge out of some vanilla dwarfs. Did you have a monstrous vision for a 4th Legendary Lord slot that didn’t get realized? You sure as Shar’tor should execute on that plan.
Maybe you’d prefer to offer up a rendition of a named character otherwise pulled from lore regardless of canon. Speaking of cannons, maybe you’ve imagined a rival to Astragoth’s mechanical prowess, named Astratony Ironmanhand. Doubtless you all have a better, less punny idea, lurking in the depths of yuh OC ready to cast fireball on the competition. Every army needs a general or 9! Create your own upstart ready to challenge for Hashut’s favor and elevate their standing in the conclave!
Are you a Hobgoblin fanatic? Heroes or other named characters seeking fame through feats of backstabbery are also worthy!
Worried your idea is too large for a single character? Bah, shove that silly notion aside! Don’t forget, Chaos Dwarfs can ride various mounts to battle, surveying the battlefield from the back of a flying bull, or being toted to war on a palanquin by hordes of smelly underlings.
Keep it as simple or as complicated as you like. Let your imagination run wild!
If you are unsure if your entry will fit the subject matter, please contact @Reaver and he’ll sort it out with the rest of the Staff.
Basing is unrestricted and up to your discretion. You may include plinths and display bases if you want. You may include fancy backgrounds. We want to encourage the creation of beautiful models and scenes, not hamper it.
