[Gaf-Naz]

Well it's that time again ladz, Ork Town is looking for new tenants!



It's your chance to build and paint some proppa looking orky scenery, have the chance of winning a prize and the envy of your orky brothers, and have some fun in the process.

Ork Town part III is sponsored by Ramshackle Games, purveyor of quality models and bitz that will fit right into your ork armies.





Da Roolz
- Each entrant to build a named ork building (e.g. Gaf-Naz's Garage).
-- Or an Ork Town related Armies on Parade display board (only the board will be judged, not your army).
-- Or an Orkified fortification (see page 114 of the 6th edition rulebook).
- The entry must be newly built specifically for this competition.
- No minimum or maximum base dimensions restrictions.
- Multiple entries and dioramas allowed & encouraged.
- Threads to be opened in the Mek's Garage once construction is complete, any time before September 1st 2012.
- Threads to have 'Ork Town Komp' in the thread title.
- WIP photos, turorials and fluff encouraged.
- PIP photos encouraged and can be posted during painting so that you can get some encouragement to finish.
- Final painted photos to be posted in the same thread and the thread title amended with 'Komplete'.
- Closing date for final painted photos in thread: December 1st 2012.
- Winner to be announced: December 8th (ish).



Da Judgin Kriteria
Construction (30%)
Overall design. Use of bitz/materials. Quality of construction. Level of detailing.
NB: We will mark your builds on the state they were at when you open your thread. You can add/amend things after that but they will not affect your score.

Painting (30%)
Quality of paintjob. Choice of paint scheme.
NB: We will mark your paintjobs on the state they were at when you amend you thread title to "Komplete". You can add/amend things after that but they will not affect your score.

Thread (30%)
Quality of overall presentation. Quality of photographs - clarity and quantity. Explanation of build process. Explanation of painting process.

Bonus Points (10%)
Originality. Accompanying fluff. 'Orkiness' - judge's discretionary bonus.

Note: Even if you think your terrain painting/building skills are lacking, you can still gain points from a well presented thread and being original and orky. Plus the only way to improve your skills is to practice them.



Da Judgez
The judging panel shall consist of:
Gaf-Naz: Mayor of Ork Town.
CannibalBob: Winner of Ork Town I and owner of Rutgotz Fungus Brewery.
Mad Grot Docsnik: Winner of Ork Town II and owner of Mad Grotz Messanga Service.
Ramshackle Curtis: Owner of Ramshackle Games and sponsor of Ork Town Komp III.



Da Prizes
The overall winner will receive:
- £10 store credit for Ramshackle Games.
- Kustom Gaf-Naz built "monolithik orkish artwork", proclaiming their klan allegiance and status as competition winner.
NB: Check out the monolith at the entrance to my Mayor's Office for an idea of what this will look like. Once the winner is announced, I'll contact them and build/kustomize the monolith to suit their klan.

The judges will also award a discretionary prize that shall award an entry that is either a good idea, funny idea, well presented thread or just "ded orky". This prize will consist of:
- A small bag of bitz from the Ork Town Mayor's bitz box.
- Some resin squigs sculpted by, and kindly donated by, Kleiner Zorn.

Apart from the above prizes, all entrants who finish on time will be featured on the Ork Town map and in the Ork Town Story (depending on when I get round to working on them again ).

[Voark]

Huzzah, Thank gork (or possibly mork), Gaf-Naz, Ramshackle Games and all others who have made it possible that there will be a 3rd Orktown competition.

Break out the blueprints and start building, yay.

[Gaf-Naz]

Welcome aboard Zagursnik, Kleiner Zorn and Voark!

I've added a list of people intending to enter the komp in the 1st post. If you know what you're going to build then let me know and I'll update the list.

And please remember, no opening threads in the Mek's Garage until you've finished the build phase of your projekt (not looking at you Kleiner ).

Good luck guys.

[nkelsch]

Toof-mart! Orks gotta buy those snazzy cut-off tee-shirts somewhere! I already got some doodles started!

[Gobsmakk'd]

Da Armoary & Ammo Kru .... Dump, somebody's gotta supply all dat dakka!

You Moonz get yer wallet's ready


Thanks Gaf-Naz

[Shadey]

Totally in.

I've already thought about this and I want to do a gatehouse/fort. I'd like to do more but I won't commit to multiple entries at this point as I already have big plans..

While coming up with the idea I wanted to do something that hadn't been done before so I edited a list Gaf-Naz originally posted and figured it might do someone here some good. Plenty of good ideas here even if you don't care about doing something different.

[Mad Grot Docsnik]

And 'ere we go! Da Mad Grot is lookin forward ta bein entertained by builds. Get to it, ladz.

[xzantrax]

After long and careful deliberation (IE: spur of the moment) I have decided to join this kompetishun.

Entry: Da Gazwerks. The orkish gasworks, supplying all your demands for highly flammable gas, and all the toxic by products you could ever need.

[Mudd da Grot]

As there is plenty of time to work on it...I'm in...

-drum roll-

Mudd da Grot's Starborks Koffee Howse...coz the Grots work 'arder wen dey iz tanked up on kafeen...'

just one question though...you said that threads in the Meks /garage are to open once construction is complete...was this to stop people getting critique/feedback prior to finishing..?

Mudd

[Dim_Reapa]

I hate making terrain. So it's about time I got better at it. I'll give this a go.

If the G-man doesn't mind, I'm not going to name the entry yet, as that may spoil the surprise, and also inspiration for my potential entry. But I will be doing a Brewhouse, with a twist.

Yes, yes, you zoggers, I do build things on occasion. Sometimes I finish them.


P.S. Really hoping Voark pulls through wif hiz Razza. Old Skool bias is why grumpy old Dim duzn't hold many competitions these days. Might run one later on this year though...

[Gaf-Naz]

Welcome aboard nkelsch, Gobsmakk'd, Shadey, xzantrax and Mudd da Grot.

Shadey - cheers for posting that list. I'll add it it to the first post later on.

just one question though...you said that threads in the Meks /garage are to open once construction is complete...was this to stop people getting critique/feedback prior to finishing..?

Yes, plus it's always nice to see a load of good builds all posted around the same time. When I ran the first Ork Town Komp I checked and the majority of komps run on this board in the past seem to run along the same lines. I changed the rules to allow painting-in-progress updates though as I know all too well how easy it is to lose motivation when painting large projekts like terrain pieces, and appreciate how encouragement from other members can help you finish.

Of course, there's nothing to stop you getting feedback offline from your mates etc...

[Gaf-Naz]

Glad to have you in Ork Town Dim. And no problems on not naming your build yet, I like surprises!

P.S. Really hoping Voark pulls through wif hiz Razza. Old Skool bias is why grumpy old Dim duzn't hold many competitions these days. Might run one later on this year though...

I was happy to hear he's chosen a Razza too - should make a cool addition to Ork Town. And there's no old-skool bias in Ork Town, in fact it's quite the opposite. Any building without a shingle roof has to pay extra business tax!

[Voark]

P.S. Really hoping Voark pulls through wif hiz Razza.

Me too ...I'll give it my best shot.

I was torn between making either a funfair or a goff rocker concert, but as i wanted to actually game on/with the scenery, i opted for the razza


I wish everyone taking part the best of luck and hope to see some awesome builds, take care and have fun.


Voark

[big mek tank kru...]

this sounds like fun - no idea what to make but i'm in

[Shadey]

Already started work doing concept designs. I have big plans.

[Gaf-Naz]

Welcome to Otk Town big mek tank krusha.

Already started work doing concept designs. I have big plans.

I like the sound of that. Bigger builds means more taxes rolling into the mayor's office.

[scargutts]

It's more than possible. Entries are welcome up until the deadline for posting completed building stage pics in a Mek's Garage thread on September 1st.

Welcome to Ork Town scargutts.
