What to enter?

The theme for this Artisans is to create a Chaos Dwarf tower (terrain).  

Deadline

The deadline for the submission of entries is 31st August 2010 11:59pm EST.  

Rules of the Competition

Build and paint a Chaos Dwarf tower to represent one of the following from the 8th ed rulebook:

Watch Tower
Wizard's Tower
Tower of Blood
Fozzrik's Folding Fortress

Each member may only enter once, and by entering something they have produced.

There is no minimum or maximum size limit, though bear in mind these are all supposed to be buildings, and as you can only take 4 photos the larger the entry the less the detail in the photos. Wink  So much as a 2m tall tower would be impressive, would people  really be judging it on the skill involved and would it come across in the pics?

You cannot enter something that is obviously a siege tower.

How to Enter?

To submit your entry upload up to 4 images to the internet, these cannot be a montage shot.  Next send a PM to Staff (a special user that all Staff have access to) with links to the images.  (Note: This is the same as previous Artisan's Contests)  

If you feel the place you are uploading shrinks it too much (as I think photobucket may), email it to cdostaff@hotmail.co.uk  but please send a pm to the Staff account as well to let us know you have entered it this way so we don't miss it. Wink

How will this be judged?

We will advise people to ignore any models that are not part of the terrain piece for the purposes of judging, they would only be for display purposes.

On 1st September we will create a 7 day timed poll to decide the winner(s).

If there are more than 10 entries there will be Silver and Bronze Artisan's medals.

All entrants will be given a number of slaves equalling the total number of entrants (10 entrants = 10 slaves per entrant etc)

Please submit 3 numbers as votes by sending a PM to Golden Hat. We had 13 entries this time, which means 13 slaves will be heading your way, if you entered.  As always there was some great variety this time, though perhaps not as many entries as I was expecting.  I guess it just increases the chances of winning for the rest of us!

PM Golden Hat with the three numbers of the entries you like best!

And remember!

Rules Wrote:
Additionally, when you cast votes you must vote for your 3 favorite entries.  Each (more or less) anonymous entry below is numbered ranging from 1 to 13. After one week, we will post the results. All staff will have access to the votes if you have a problem with the voting or have questions as to how to vote, likewise, contact one of us.

There is no need to specify which one you think is 1st, 2nd or 3rd. Simply list the three that you like we will do the rest.


Voting will close 11th July 11:59 EST

Chaos Dwarf Radio #7
Early May, 2010
Special Guest: NIcodemus
[ MP3 48.6 MB | Show Notes & Comments ]




Hello all! This shall hopefully be the last time that I have to apologise for a delayed podcast. I have just completed the last of my university exams, which delayed my editing of the podcast by two weeks! This episode was primarily recorded on the 6th of May 2010, although I had to add in the AC #7 results and the new GH #12 criteria. Once again, we started with well over an hour of recorded work, of which I have only removed silences and the like, so it’s another bumper episode. I think that the podcast will now become a six weekly affair, so that it coincides with the competition schedule, allowing us to discuss entries and the next competition: call it a bi-quarterly podcast if you will.

Today's hosts are Hashut's Blessing and NIcodemus.

-Artisan’s Contest #7: Winner and contestants revealed!
-Flood controls: For more information.
-Nicodemus’ projects: Dawi Zharr in Warhammer Quest, WHQuest tiles, Chaos Dwarf quest.

-Greenskins models: Long-awaited.
-8th edition: Discussion and rumour discussion and Grimstonefire’s rumour round-up.
-Topic of March 2010: Video tutorials.

Topic of the Month: May
Podcast/topic feedback
Last month’s response to the topic of the month seemed to imply that it was something of a flop or that everybody was just as busy as I was. Regardless of reasoning, this month’s topic is here to combat that. I’d like to know what sort of topics people would like, if you would even like a topic of the month, what sort of improvements you think are necessary for the podcast, what things you particularly like about either and so on.

As an aside, I’d like people to start nominating themselves to co-host the podcast with me early on after the previous podcast. Nicodemus replied as soon as I had made a post asking for members to join me and I’d like to have more eager individuals joining me. If you need incentive,you get a medal out of it too!
 

  Golden Hat #12 - Chaos Dwarfs with Blunderbusses

Welcome to the 12th Golden Hat competition of Chaos Dwarfs Online!

Subject Matter
Create 5 Chaos Dwarfs with Blunderbusses.  No command models are allowed.

Basing
For this one it would be easier to say the models have to be on game-legal 20x20mm bases.

Particulars
Due Date: 11:59 PM June 30th 2010 EST (Eastern Standard Timezone)
Subject Matter:  Create 5 Chaos Dwarfs with Blunderbusses

What is the deadline?
Once again same basic premise as previous Golden Hats; send all entries to the Golden Hat account no later 11:59 PM June 30th 2010 (Eastern Standard Timezone). Entries will not be accepted after that date and time regardless of how cool your submission is. (Around 6 weeks to complete your entry).

If for some reason you are having trouble with your submission, contact one of the Staff. In order to avoid problems, I "highly advise" that entrants do not wait until the very last minute to submit their entries...

How to Enter
Upload up to 4 photos of your entries to the internet.  Next, send a PM to Golden Hat (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:
- Rightly take your place in the Golden Hat Hall of Fame, where your glory will be remembered for years to come.
- Receive the Golden Hat medal for your online persona *
- Everyone who enters gets a number of slaves equal to the number of entries. If 50 people enter we award 50 slaves to each person who entered.

*= As with previous Golden Hats; if there are more then 10 entrants the silver and bronze Golden Hat Medals will be awarded as well.

As usual once all entries are received a thread will be created for voting. And as always if there are any questions please PM me, another Staff member or post them here.

NEW FOR CDO:  Competition Veteran medals!
One of the great things about Golden Hat and the Artisans Contest is the way they they both draw so much participation from all our members. We can't all have the skills of Snotling or M3lvin, but lots of entries helps make every contest that bit more special.

For this reason we're introducing a special medal for those of you who've shown amazing commitment to the competitions. The Competition Veteran medals will recognise those who've gone the extra mile and entered many cool entries into either Golden Hat, the Artisan's Contest or both. There will be gold, silver and bronze medals as usual but beware - these medals (like all our medals) take a lot of earning. Even if you don't win a Golden Hat or Cog, there's now a goal for everyone. So what are you waiting for? - get cracking!

Medals will be awarded retrospectively for entries to date, where applicable.
- A Gold Veteran Medal winner will receive a free (excludes p&p) exclusive model from Baggronor!  Awesome!
