Tabletop Warhammer?

I'm sure I can find something to donate as well (actually I've thought of something

)

We could have winners for:

Painting (painting quality)
Modelling (conversions, posing etc)
Theme (colour scheme regardless of painting ability, fluff etc)

That should allow people of all abilities a chance?

if anyone else has something they'd be willing to donate that would give us three prizes

Oh yeah, and has to be on a standard 25mm base with no other models on the base (could have a corpse though I guess), No Space Marine in the middle of an elaborate dinner plate sized scenic base

That sounds like a fun comp- something for everyone to sink their teeth into

Spuj · 3 Sep 2013 at 14:23

Will see what Von thinks of all this as it was his idea, but this could shape up to be quite good fun

This sounds good. Ill have a look and see if theres anything I can donate.

EDIT: What about Black Library books as a donated prize? I think I have a few I could put in.

Shamikebab · 3 Sep 2013 at 16:57

Yeah could do that if you wanted!

Disclaimer: As long as it's not by C.S. Goto, ain't nobody got time for that!

Haha no its the first Ciaphis Cain omnibus and first space wolves omnibus. Id have to double check they are in decent enough condition. Might have a couple others lying around could do as some form of bundle.

I'd be up for entering a competition like that, and not just because it gives me an excuse to buy the new tactical squad, honest...

Shamikebab · 3 Sep 2013 at 17:23

Just placed an order for the new tactical, sternguard and vanguard squads. Look what you've done Von Smallhausen. This is entirely your fault

JHeaton · 3 Sep 2013 at 17:26

So much for not buying anything until you've painted the rest, then! I'm still really annoyed about the new Chaplain not being available separately. I don't want a command squad!

Shamikebab · 3 Sep 2013 at 17:27

Yeah that was cheeky. What if I only assemble one for the competition and leave the rest, that's ok surely?

Brabbinho · 3 Sep 2013 at 17:27

We'd better create an Eldar painting comp as well... you might actually get to paint yours then Shami

Shamikebab · 3 Sep 2013 at 17:29

Wraithknight painting competition?

Brabbinho · 3 Sep 2013 at 17:33

I'd better start saving my pennies then

clartymarty · 3 Sep 2013 at 22:14

Board WIP not as good as previous photos but I'm going for lava land

JHeaton · 3 Sep 2013 at 22:20

Looking good.

I may have to avoid this thread and Warseer for a while. The urge to pre-order some Space Marines is becoming much more difficult to resist.

Sorry, gonna ask this question again, does anybody varnish their model?

Seems to quite a few products around, I know I should go for a matte, but not sure whether I should get a spray or not.

lordhughes · 4 Sep 2013 at 09:08

Must admit, this is just looking like an excuse to buy the new tactical squad

shame!

I on occasion use the GW varnish, I have had no issues with it but various people online seem to say its poop.

I just bought some army painter varnish to try. Figured i love their primers so id try the varnish. Should be here by the end of the week to try.

Guys I'm quite a fan of rattle can painting for blocks of colours. How do I go about basing models with blue or green without buying an airbrush?
