Competition Yak Competition 21 - Mad Robot VS Yakromunda

Mad Robot vs Yakromunda

Ok, Welcome Yakkers to our First Special Yak Comp!* I know it's been a while coming, but hopefully, you'll like it.

The Cool guys over at @Mad Robot got onto us a while ago about making something special for the community - to not only celebrate the launch of the New Yakromunda Web Site, but also the re-release of the New Necromunda!

Before I start, this Competition has a very different and strict set of rules...for...well, you'll see below.

So...what do we make this time?

Create a bit of Scatter terrain - suitable cover for a few minis to hide behind - NOTE this is for the new Necromunda reboot. (YakTribe Terrain pack!)
Mad Robot will then be cast it up and it will sold as a bit of terrain on the MR website!

RULES
1. Maximum dimensions 30mm high, 60mm long and 30mm deep (a little over 1"x2"x1") examples: jersey barrier or something like a vending machine, even a small sand bag wall.

2. Negative spaces and Undercuts need to be kept to a minimum or removed completely (Mad Robot can assist with any queries regarding this)

3. There can be nothing on these pieces that violates someone else's IP (so no putting Aquilas or Bolt Guns on it)

4. The winner also needs to agree to send the final piece to Mad Robot by post so they can work their magic on it. Mad Robot will also work with the winner to iron out any small problems or details.

5. The winning entry becomes sole and complete property of Mad Robot Miniatures Inc. and submitting an entry into the contest should be seen as acknowledgement of that fact.

6. The winner will receive public design credit once the piece goes up for sale as well as receive one of the first casts as a prize. (2nd and 3rd place will get something special from YakTribe, possibly from MR as well)

7. Winner will be chosen by the normal Yak poll method.

Time for this is one month from now, so finish date is Sunday 3rd 17th December - just in time for New Necromunda to be in our hands!.

Please comment below if you are going to enter (and please bear in mind the stricter rules requirements for this one)

Good Luck all!

Update: Final entrant images should be uploaded to Comp 21 Album.

first: and IN!

@djmothra
one Question: you write: "There can be nothing on these pieces that violates someone else's IP"

could it be something that looks like "near" this. for example a self sculpted mini like a goliath- punk mini "on the terrainpeace" ..

@djmothra
second Question: must it be "one terrainpeace" or could it be more peaces in one entry ?

 

[Punktaku]

Found the post! Wow, that is a sweet prize. the size restriction is... interesting. but maybe i can finish one (unlike Yak 20). I’m in.

 

[djmothra]

@Mad Robot would best answer those. I suppose a few pieces for one entry would be ok...after all, its supposed to be a pack.

 

[Stoof]

Something I can do a tiny bit at a time over the course of the comp! Yay! I'm in.

And no need to paint since it'll be going for casting I presume?

 

[Mad Robot]

-One piece is preferable. If you must due more than one piece, they need to be on the smaller side. Maybe run it by me first
-This intended to be a small piece of terrain, to serve as cover for one, maybe two minis. The measurements are meant as a guide.
-I think you should avoid attaching minis of any kind to these, not sure how many people will be interested in buying scatter terrain with a mini already attached to it.
-No painting is required

 

[Punktaku]

-No painting is required

Music to my ears! Should they be primed so they don’t look like a pile of junk, or will that mess with your process?

 

[maxwellrpower]

I'll get in on that! Sounds like a great idea. Also I'll probably miss out on #21 as I'll be in Taiwan through December

 

[Mad Robot]

@Punktaku no primer either

 

[Punktaku]

umm.. can we enter more than once?

 

[dabbk]

Sounds interesting indeed! There is already quite a few scatter bits in the neomunda box, but more can never hurt, so: yay! Now I have to find ideas for it...

 

[voddelicious]

Damn! Will have to wait until the next one... I'm not a sculptor; everything I make is bashed with other folks' IP! A thief at heart, I guess

I’m no sculptor either. Mine will be mostly a bits box dive.

Uncertain as to whether bits are others' IP. I'm thinking they are.

 

[Punktaku]

pen cap? plastistruct?

 

[voddelicious]

pen cap? plastistruct?

Arguably IP. Pen caps don't need those fancy crinkles; they're there for a reason. IP!

 

[Azzabat]

This could be just the thing I need to get me over my post Halloween blues ... and stop me getting carried away with NEXT Halloween (it’s only 362 sleeps you know!).

I’m in.

 

[Punktaku]

i KNEW this sounded too easy...
