Golden Hat #6 - Painting CompetitionWillmark 05-08-2008

From the ominous shadows of the dark cabal of the Lords of Chaos Dwarfs Online, a sharp voice cut through the hot air which was rife with the scents of slaves being sacrificed at the Bronze Bull-Altar of Hashut
"So it is agreed brothers, we shall support this Border Town Burning initiative, shall we not, feeble humans thou they be?" intoned the newest overlord to be elevated to the council, Willmark Dark Lord of the Sith, er... Dwarfs!
Thinking thoughtfully the recently aged Lord Xander replys "Yes. The contest shall run until June 28th" It shall be so may all tremble with this newest battle, that of Golden Hat VI". "Better get a move on before this stone creep, well, creeps further up my feet..."
"8 weeks is that enough?" spoke Wallacer stroking his curled beard.
"Not only that, but details on the Artisans Contest #2 are forth coming very soon as well..."
At this point Hashut's Blessing raised an eyebrow in surprise, caught somewhat unawares...
At this point a hapless hobgoblin slave stumbles in on the Dark Lords chambers trudging massive stone slates with runic numbers marking the passing of time. He was ordered to bring the slates hours ago, a quick glance from the assembled throng and the crackle of arcane energy results in nothing more then two stone slates clanking to the floor and a pair of smoking feet where once the hobgoblin stood; maniacal laughter ensues.
"It is settled then, agreed brothers?" Grimstonefire asks.
"It is indeed, and may our loyal brothers (and sisters) take heed of what befell the hobgoblin if they do not succeed in placing an entry".
Ominous laughter "MMMMMMWWWAAAHHHAAAAAAA" of the combined lords ensues...
And thus it was that Golden Hat VI came to be:
Welcome to the 6th Golden Hat competition! Create a Gaoler in support of Border Town Burning's- forthcoming Black Dwarf List!
Particulars
Due Date: Saturday, June 28th
Subject Matter: Create 1 Gaoler (that's a Jailer for all us Yanks!)
Rules for the Gaoler

Equipment they may possess and thus you may model

Take note: mechanical suits are not applicable to gaolers...
Full PDF can be acquired here: http://www.chaosdwarf.com/cd2/
What is the deadline?
Once again same basic premise as last time; send all entries to the Golden Hat account no later then 11:59 PM Saturday, June 28th EST. Entries will not be accepted after that date. (Around 8 weeks to complete your entry).
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 Golden Hat V)
If you win:
- Rightly take your place in the Golden Hat Hall of Fame 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.
- Feature of the winner (and runner-ups) in the gallery section of the Border Town Burning supplement (both the website and the PDF version) with lots of name-dropping and praise.
*= As with GHV: If there are more then 10 entrants the silver and bronze Golden Hat Medals will be awarded as well.
Get cracking and make us proud.
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.

Lord Willmark:
"It is indeed, and may our loyal brothers (and sisters) take head of what befell the hobgoblin if they do not succeed in placing an entry".
Take HEED 
Take special note Mechanical suits is not applicable to sorcerers...
ONLY applicable to sorcerers, and therefore NOT Gaolers
Everyone:
Also see the What is a Gaoler thread for more opinion/info!

RE: Golden Hat #6 - Painting CompetitionHashut's Blessing 05-08-2008
The ones restricted to a Gaoler, thusly it must be US1 on a 20mm base. I shall do what I can to enter. Just finishing exams, so it seems I should be able to do it. Just need the base model (I'd come up with a concept for him ages ago). Is it wise to state what equipment the model has bought? For example, it may be that you use counts as items.
Pledge: '09:+83 '10:+116 '11:+118 '12: N/A '13: N/A
After years of rigerous scientific reasearch, it has now been proven that there is a 50% chance that HB is 'in your fridge, eatin your cakez'.

I like big hats and I cannot lie, you other brothers can't deny, when a dwarf walks in with an iddy biddy thing and wears it on his head, you get sprung...
But there is only one choice
