Subject Matter: Chaos Siege Giant!
For this contest we want you to enter with one or more Chaos Siege Giants, Twisted Duardin Gargants, Chaos Dwarf Slave Giants or any other manner of giants with a connection to Chaos Dwarfs you can think of, however you imagine them to be.
The scope is wide and free: Arm them any way you like, and feel free to build dioramas; pit them against enemies; depict riotous giants stomping Chaos Dwarfs; yelling and bawling; throwing foes; smashing into enemy regiments; or have them accompanied by smallfolk infantry and warmachines. If you wish your giant to be attended by a skirmish screen of Hobgoblin outriders or carrying platforms with blunderbusses and artillery on their shoulders, then go for it. You can enter with a single Chaos Siege Giant, or several.
Feel free to go to town with all manner of terrain to truly build up a scene. Make your giant a mechanical monstrosity, some kind of non-humanoid beast, djinn or Daemon if you feel like it. 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 @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.
