Paint Aid Army Choices

[TAB Studio]

This is the poll to decide what army should be painted to auction and donate funds to help the recent earthquake victims

 

[tidoco2222]

Voted, I voted for Ogres but I realy don\'t mind at all which army eventually comes out on top.

 

[Minigrrrl]

Well, i voted ogres, because it will bring in the most money. Wolfen will not really rake in the cash, lus they\'re expensive to buy. The only selfish point I will make here, is that I refuse to do anything chaos, because i\'m almost done with a 108 mini chaos army for a client, and I don\'t want to touch another chaos model for a long long time.....

 

[Avicenna]

Dont forget guys, that whether we like it or not, the most financially viable army (ie the one that will go for the highest money) will be the new army by Games Workshop. Now, I think that it is worth the sacrifice of painting something we would like to do for painting something that is going to make more money.

Remember: the money is our goal

Just thought i\'d say that...

I voted ogres also, not because they are what I most want to paint, but because they should, by far sell the best.

One question, not to be a party pooper or anything...Does an army really sell more than if we each painted up one mini really well and sold them individually?

 

[Brother Tom]

I agree with peter, we really want to make as much money as possible and orges seem the way to go. I think chaos would also be good but seeing as Tammy is fed up with them ( I think it will help if we have her on the team) I think orges are the way to go.

 

[frenchkid]

My ote goes to ogres too, if it\'s the way to help the most then that\'s the way to go.

 

[supervike]

a selfish motive...

I do agree with the Ogres having the most bang for the buck, but my secondary, more selfish motive, is to see a great looking painted Ogre army, so when I paint mine I have a good guide!!

 

[Avicenna]

Should be good fun vike

 

[Jappobra]

Cause the ogres are an race in wich every ogre has had very different influences because they have been/are mercenary\'s, it\'s the best to have every painter paint a unit of 3 ogre\'s(or 1 unit of Gnobblars, or something). So it looks like have a different history etc. And make them look like one army with the bases.

 

[ipaintminis]

there are 2 people out of the army painters that have not voted yet. once they vote we can start.

 

[wiccanpony]

if your are waiting for me Becca, I voted for the ogres, they seem to be what\'s \"hot\" right now.

stick to two or three colors...maybe someone could make and paint up a banner for our beasties.

 

[Grumb]

Sorry to hold up the show...

Sorry Becca, finally got back online and voted... looks like I\'m alone my choice however, looks like orges it is...

games workshop gave away a free ogre at christmas for a painting competition in germany
im planing to buy one and still enter the competition before it ends (dont know when)
if the model should win anything you could add it to an ok army if it will increase the price so i just voted for ogres

 

[Dragonsreach]

Voted and it\'s looking like the Ogres have won by a substantial margin.

Very pleased to be part of this, even in some small way.

Ok, I voted for Chaos, but only because I\'m a little concerned on how to get the minis. I have no problems ordering from the UK GW online store, and I\'m probably getting worried ahead of time, but I just want to start as soon as possible.

Don\'t get me wrong, I\'m happy to paint Ogres or Gnoblars (sp?).

Also, things seem to be moving really fast. I\'m not complaining, but since I got a new job I\'m a little affraid that I might miss an important post or thread. Whatever you decide, you can count me in, even if I don\'t reply.

 

[Minigrrrl]

Right...the only thing i\'m worried about is ont getting a coherent look to this army. Although i know this is gonna twinge a bit in the creative spot, i think, for the cause concerned, we should do the best job available, and appoint an overall \'project leader\', and get going on deciding colour scheme, basing etc. Don;t forget, that although the Ogre characters are all have outward different cultural influences, it is the SAME RACE, and has the SAME culture from the core. This means that the skintones should be the same, as well as tattoos etc. Also a good idea to generally have a pallette of say 5 or 6 colours, that can ofcourse be applied in different ways to give the characters and units a slight ramshackle feel.

i\'m too busy at the moment with said work and moving to really be a proper project leader, so I suggest TAB, since it was her idea On the other hand, i\'ll be more than glad to write up a schedule of who is doing what/time given etc. I\'ve done thid before with specific projects when still working for the Big Bad Wolf, so know how this can be done the most painless and efficiently.

i\'ll also make sure my webgirly makes a spot on my website for this, so we can show off WIP shots and make sure as many potential customers will know this is going on. I suggest everybody that has a website does this, so the word spreads properly. I also think posting on other forums(god forbid) will help, i\'ll ask \'special permission\' to mention this on Bolter from the \'Boys In Charge\', since it doesn\'t involve Marines, but i don;t think it will be a problem.
