Okay, this is the thread for WIP entries for September 2008, and GD. It may be early, but if you start now you'll have more chance of a prize!

Start like this:

Category: YB
Model: ???
Other models: ???
Conversions: ???

name: Synapse (Nate)
category: 40k squad
model: truescale pre heresy thousand sons (squad of 5 mounte don scenic base)
conversions: yeah... pretty much the whole thing will be a conversion!.

havent started them yet, though im working on sketches at the moment

Can we have some sketches, then? (I'll post some of my concept art soon.)

Name: Catferret/Tim
Category: Large Scale Model (Maybe Open Category depending on size limits)
Model: 54mm scale Eldar Exodite Dragon Rider
Conversions: Um, take a guess! ;)

I've finally decided upon one of my entries...

Models: Chaos Sorcerer and a Lord of Nurgle on a daemonic mount
Conversions: Most of the Lord of Nurgle, and some of the sorcerer

Concept art will come soon,
MM

Catferret - nice! looking forward to seeing that

ill take pics when i make more detailed drawings, though theyll be very similar to the SAm Wood Artwork ftom the HH cardgame/books

I may also do a daemon of Khorne. And I will now post some pictures...

This is only concept art, but here are some rough sketches:

Daemon1

Daemon2

Sorcerer

NB: Please note that the scanner is pretty awful.
So, what do you think?

Got a year to plan this but we've had a spiffing idea.

Next year we rent Willesay Campsite for the club (15 minutes away from the NEC).

Put some Tents up, Hire the Rooms for Gaming and Painting, and use the woods for an airsoft battle, bbq and beer each night.

What do you think?

sounds awesome! i would love to go, thats if its ok with you guys B)

-Rob

be everyone invited, i'll speak to crippler about it, he seems to becoming more involved

Cool!

i hope to be posting more pics etc up tomorrow afternoon, im currently at home visiting the parents.. not been back in months, but i should be back home tomorrow, so i can show off my not so amazing painting skills :P

-Rob

If welcome i very much look forward to that too.

though i also hope to see all you guys before then sometime, today was brilliant

SC

Sounds like a plan guys!

I just posted in the Dad's army thread that we want EVERYONE in AmmoBunker entering next year!

ill be there, it will give me another excuse to buy that very pretty command falcon :P

-Rob

I think I'll be spending the large part of the (painting) year doing a dads army tank:) I would be up for the meet...but we would obviously have to get more specific with the timing as we get closer to the deadline.

cheers, hope to see you all there next year.

Someday...maybe...still geographically screwed until then.

-scrubout

sounds like fun!

particularly the beer :P

Wow that sounds like mad fun,
when i come over to england in 2011 and go to UK GD 2011 we can have a massssive party, and i can show u all how to drink, aussie style

lol

kieran

No we don't allow shandy at our bash's sorry ;)

Right, not sure if i'll be going next year or not, but if i do i'll probably be entering GD again, not a clue what with though.

Also, thinking its probably better not to run a table, or come on the GW bus.. just as getting in early made getting out to enter GD hastle.. and the bus just want my style (had about 5 hours sleep in the past 48..)

So next year it will be no expense spared, fly down, stay in a hotel, actually pay for my ticket and buy lots of toys :D

What u'd prefer a 5 star hotel and mini bar to our snug tents and ten pack? Woose ;)

can a opt for some subtle blend of the 2? :D

Interesting idea; not sure how I'd explain that to my parents (;)) and you may have to hold on the beer for me (although a lot could change in a year), and I may not go next year owing to increased work-load from the IB and....
I'll stop finding problems now ;)

If were having an airsoft battle then bagsy on the side with your little lad. He was ace!

'Show to the free things small child' - And he was off like a rocket.

Wasnt there talk of a easter meet up at warhammer world? And if there wasnt then there is now!

why not christmas :P, a winter battle so to speak. 'battle for Santa's grotto' :P

i go down once a week to warhammer world (Nottingham)

so if you see a mad man wealding a mech eldar army like a mad man, feel free to say hello, but be prepared for a puzzled look followed by 'who the hell are you?'

-Rob

i think a xmas meet up would be cool, at least nearly everyone has time off.

obviously we'd need to be at home for the 25th though...:D

SC

Hmm, doubt a Christmas meet up would be possible for me.
I'll have a think and see though,

Hmn...........

Well, it will be difficult for me............ next year i'm 16 so i'm no longer in youngbloods.

But bugger it, i've got the whole year to plan/make/convert/paint a model so yes, I will be entering!

I will probably enter something like a terminator captain, lots of raised detail so it won't be emmensly hard for me to do a good job on it........
I think:D

Sounds like a plan jase.

And scrubby, you're a Californian, so you're not geographically screwed, you're just screwed.

I'll probably do a DKoK Quarter Master and Retinue.

DK

Aye Christmas is a little dodgy as I finish late - unless I work hard but thats not going to happen

On the subject of next year's Golden Daemon (if I can go) I';m tempted to enter 40k squad with an inquisitor (Lok model) and his retinue.
Only problem is getting the models to use for the retinue (3 acolytes, 2 combat servitors and 2 warriors with flamers).
The acolytes could be Empire Free company i suppose, and the warriors could be done with kasrkin models (if I did a full army the Inq STs would be kasrkin) but the combat servitors would be tricky; I really don;t like the current models. I was thinking maybe of trying to convert Grimaldus' retinue, although that may be a bit beyond me ;)

Any suggestions?

Hm alright I guess I should join you guys at Gamesday UK next year if some of yall come to Chicago! :)

Name: Ajae
Catagories: 40K Single, 40K Squad, Large, Open
Entries: Grey Knight Grand Master, DKK Quarter Master, Khorne Dreadnought, two World Eaters killing each other.

when is GD chicago...i may actually come :D

SC

Last weekend in July. I believe that is Friday and Saturday the 25-26 this year

i may come to it...i just may...

SC

Well if you do, fly down here and drive up with the rest of us!

An idea; for the next meet up should we try and make a banner for Ammobunker like the Warseer banner? Try and go one further than the pair of jeans :D

I'd prolly wear Ammobunker jeans if they were somewhat tight fitting. Not girls pants though
