Welcome to Terrain Challenge 1 "The Free Peoples"
The theme of the Free Peoples is open to your interpretation.
Challenge begins now and closing date for completed entries will be midnight GMT on November 30th 2012
Rules
1. The terrain piece can be up to 9inches square in size. Entries smaller than this are acceptable. If your entry ends up being one or two inches larger than the permitted 9 don't panic I will not be running round with a tape measure checking for exact sizes. The size limit is more of a guideline to stop 18inch square Towers of Orthanc being entered alongside 5inch square rocky outcrops. Scratch built and pre built pieces are acceptable. Your entry must have provision for miniatures to be used on it after all it is wargaming terrain. How you do this for your prefered game system is up to you.
If you are unsure as to whether something will be eligible for entry, just post asking or PM me and I will let you know whether or not you may use it.
2. Proof Pics - I understand that taking proof pictures for this type of challenge could prove difficult as a picture of a pile of materials is not much good. Instead 3 Work in progress pictures MUST be submitted at some point through the challenge. You can submit these 3 pictures along with your completed entry pictures at the end of the challenge if you so wish or at any point up to that. When you submit them is up to you.
3. You may join the challenge at any time, but must submit photographs of your completed piece by midnight GMT of November 30th, 2012. There is no limit to the maximum amount of WIP pictures you can submit the more the better. A maximum of 5 photos of your completed entry please, this allows for pictures of your completed terrain piece from multiple angles.
4. Entries that are completed in time will be eligible to win the challenge. The challenge winner will be decided by the vote of the OR community. The community will choose one winner and one runner-up from the completed entries. Votes should be cast not simply on painting skill, but on merit, including creativity, attention to detail, and techniques.
Good luck to all and above all Have fun!!!!
NOTE - With November being Hobbit month for anyone who has not already commeced work on an entry it might be fun to construct something based around hobbits.
Oh and p.s - this thread is a furby free zone please.
I have several projects under way. Most involve mountains and caves or Mirkwood. Don't need any more Hobbit houses. I will figure something out
