Yeah! I’ve got the figures for round 1 and 5 8)

I can think of a few movie scenes that would look great in figures and I can think of figures that could be use for movie scenes but nothing come up that would include the two yet… lol

Likewise... although I could probably manage a scene from The Mummy with a minimum of painting. Need to get the DVD back out of the library and watch it again...

Would a safari party count for "Africa"?

I would say safaris are African.  ...Unless it's a whale safari in the Arctic, obviously  ;)

Perhaps this could be files as 'common sense' situation but I thought I would ask:

there are some very nice hunting party civilians out there. Cptn Blood specifies bystanders as 'unarmed civilians' but I am thinking they would be allowed to? Or am I misunderstanding the idea of purpose of the theme?

Question about Bonus Round 10: What about a well known TV show? And I mean well known.

I would also like to second Hammers' query about civilians...  ;)

More than a month before it even starts and already folks are trying to wriggle out of the bonus rounds' clear rules. LPL never changes!  lol


I had to paint crap I didn't want to if I wanted the points when I was in the LPL, and so should you!  :)

Just to confirm, I can enter stuff that I am showing on LAF etc as a WIP scratchbuild etc as long as I don't show it painted.

Also, can such WIP threads go up to undercoat stage or is all paint prohibited?

Sorry to ask but I use the LPL to eat into the painting for existing projects and so plan to be building and undercoating right up to a week before the first entry is due in.
My LAF Gallery is HERE

Ooooooooooh questions questions  ;)

question: does a bloodbowl team count for civilian theme?


If they are civilians and unarmed then they count. A civilian is someone not part of a uniformed military or paramilitary organisation, or part of a non-uniformed paramilitary organisation (in other words, resistance fighters or partizans would not count as civilians - hence also the 'unarmed' bit).

there are some very nice hunting party civilians out there. Cptn Blood specifies bystanders as 'unarmed civilians' but I am thinking they would be allowed to? Or am I misunderstanding the idea of purpose of the theme?

Unarmed, as per the above point. Non-combatants. Bystanders. The intent is civilian extras, not armed protagonists.

Question about Bonus Round 10: What about a well known TV show? And I mean well known.


lol Sorry - famous movies only! (Maybe we'll do TV shows in LPL6!)

Just to confirm, I can enter stuff that I am showing on LAF etc as a WIP scratchbuild etc as long as I don't show it painted.

Also, can such WIP threads go up to undercoat stage or is all paint prohibited?


Yes, if you want bonus points for a newly painted (i.e. previously unpublished) team, that team - or members of it - should not have previously been shown in a painted state on LAF or elsewhere. If you have previously shown the figures concerned as WIP conversions (up to undercoated stage), that's fine. As long as you haven't shown the painted figures before, they will qualify as a newly painted team.

Of course  ;)

A small question about Round 5, the Africa round. The antagonists can be from anywhere as long as they have a connection with the African five, yes?

cheers

Sounds plausible as long as you include African Texians..... :D
