Contest gaming table

How to convert or sculpt a miniature? How to make a decent base or even a full diorama?!

Contest gaming table

Post by MiSiU »

As said in topic, this was done for Eastern Europe Gaming Table Contest. As always it was finished during last few remaining hours before submission deadline, but I think it was worth it. Anyway I enjoyed the process and I think I would gladly go over it again:

Overall view and the plaza in front of the main gate:

Ruins in the front yard:

The said thing is, that due to lack of space the entire table had to be disassembled and stored in my closet :?
Anyone attending the "Wojenny Mlot 2006" event in Warsaw had the ocasion to watch it during second day, when we held two shows on that table (the popularity with younglings amazed even us).
Now the contest has been resolved some time ago, but neither official results, nor photos of the winning entry (from what I remember some Croatian team won it). Sad because I really wanted to see who the hell overwhelmed us :D, but seems to have something to do with GW - Emerging Markets global politics.

MiSiU - you're an experienced 40k player, and I'll take the liberty now to remind you a quote from 40k book (my favourite "thought for a day", btw)

Victory needs no explanation.
Defeat allows none.

Great table. Congratz to you and partners (Tomkow and Eman?) no matter what place you actually got.

I think you misunderstood my words. I don't regret losing the contest (I had so much fun doing it, despite my current relationship beeing out to a test), but not getting the oportunity of seeing other people entries. I simply think that they might be good ones and I always repeat that one should learn from someone better.

Fair enough :)
Sorry, I forgot to put an emoticon in my previous post, that's why I sounded dead serious.
I'd also like to see all submitted tables.
