Subject Matter: Salty Seas!
For this contest we want you to enter with something relating to Chaos Dwarfs (or their lackeys and creations) and the sea. This could e.g. mean pirates, naval vessels or crew, beach party, ships, submersibles, harbour scenes, lighthouse, oil drill platforms, divers plundering wrecks, tamed monsters or something else entirely. Let your imagination run wild!
One or more models and/or terrain pieces; as ever, you yourself set the upper limit. You may of course include non-Chaos Dwarf models and/or terrain pieces, such as enemies fighting your visionary Dawi Zharr. Build a diorama if you like!
If you are unsure if your entry will fit the subject matter, please contact @Admiral 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 modelling scenes, not hamper it.
Specifics
Subject: Chaos Dwarfs and the Sea
Bases: Up to your discretion.
The Due Date: 11:59 PM June 4th, 2020 EST (Eastern Time Zone)
Please read the full rules that apply to the Golden Hat competition before submitting your entry.
Submission
All entries must be sent either to the @GoldenHat account and/or to chaosdwarfsonline ( at ) gmail.com no later than the due date. (Entrants have approximately 6 weeks to complete entries). If for some reason you are having trouble with your submission, contact @Admiral. In order to avoid problems, entrants should not wait until the last minute to submit their entries.
How to Enter
Upload up to 4 photos of your entries to the Internet, e.g. with Imgur or with this forum’s direct upload function. Photos may not have additional text or items/models unrelated to your entry. Next, send a PM to @GoldenHat (a special user that all Staff have access to) containing the links where the pictures can be found. (Note: This is the same as previous Golden Hats).
If you win:
- Walk across the backs of the cowed masses you have scorned and pushed aside, in order to take your place at the top in the vaunted Golden Hat Gallery.
- Receive the Golden Hat medal for your online persona (if we manage to implement medals without hindering smooth updates of software).
- Win paints and miniatures! See above for details.
Once all entries are received a thread will be created for voting and determining the winners!
If there are any questions it is best post them here so that everyone can benefit from any details or clarifications that may arise.
Should you wish to donate a prize to the contest, please PM @Admiral and he will sort it out with you and the Staff.
Good luck everyone!
