Hobby Challenge
Quarter 1, 2011
Quarter 3 Link
Quarter 2 Link :wink: Claiming Q2 Medals
Quarter 1 Link
Ok, so it's more "repackaged" than new....
but heh.....
Basically the challenge is this:
- From this weekend a Hobby Challenge topic will go up, so those of you with a lot of prezzies should be looking at this on Saturday![/*:m:3bgm58vw]
- You have until the 31st July to chop and change your challenge, after which the Hobby Challenge will be locked[/*:m:3bgm58vw]
- You get until the 30th September to complete your challenge[/*:m:3bgm58vw]
- You may nominate any number of models/scenery/etc from any game system by any company, including ones you've started working on[/*:m:3bgm58vw]
- If you complete your challenge, you get the new Hobby Challenge Medal*[/*:m:3bgm58vw]
- The next Hobby Challenge should run consecutively (ie begin nominations on 24th September, locked 14th October, ends 31st December), yes, you can obtain the medal more than once[/*:m:3bgm58vw]
- We do, of course, thoroughly encourage you to maintain blogs
[/*:m:3bgm58vw]
*I'd show you a pic, but the boss man hasn't done it yet >.>
Basically this is your challenge to get what you want out of the painting/modelling side of the hobby for the next 3 months. How hard you make your challenge is up to you (hopefully you will set yourselves worthy goals, but it's up to you to balance it against real life etc, by having the conditions loose, we hope to make this as inclusive as possible), the only "moderation" will be locking the challenge down and handing medals out at the end.
Enjoy

Re: A New Challenge....
Hmm. Articulating some sort of challenge you? Well well well, I shall keep a beady eye on this one then.

This week I am good-naturedly shaking my fist at: Baragash. For being unreasonably reasonable.
Sex, drugs and pointy ears.
Cheaphammer 40p: 2000 points of Marines as cheap as possible.
It'll be alright on the Knight - a slow refreshing of my original Grey Knight army.
Cordova: In my head you're eight foot tall, always carry an officer's sabre, and speak like Theoden at the battle of Pelennor Fields.
Grey Knights don't go to heaven: they go to hell and regroup.

Re: A New Challenge....
Why is it that M'lady isn't getting what this challange could possibly be
? (*
shuns herself from being away from the forums so much in winter 08'.*)
I aint fading away this time.
Seriously though...Pox mentioned we should get to work for it....I am thorough and slow in the painting realm so I must see what this challenge is before I fully commit.

Re: A New Challenge....
If it's a christmas conversion competition, whoever converts the marneus calgar on a throne into santa and his two bodyguards into elves wins, end of story
EDIT:

There was a reference to there being an Article competition in Bara's sig though a while ago. What's happened to that?
