I knew these looked familiar, but it took a while before I noticed what I was looking at. These plastic pieces were actually miniature versions of authentic Delmonteland storage pots! Thank you flu for clearing my head!
So I glued 10 of these on two MDF bases (pond bases from Warbases) and painted them look like ceramic contructs - it took several layers to achieve the not-painted-look on them. But I think they ended up looking just fine. I added some geometric art on them, paying close attention to designs and colour choices of native Delmonteland people.
These are of course two big to carry around, so they are more like permanent water storages, granaries, containers for blood orange juice and what else. Looking inside makes you feel you don't want even know...
Scoring is simple, Byron will use his magic formula and voila - the points appear! Thank you for your attention on these plastic models by Citadel/Games Workshop.

Hello Teemu, These are a great little simple repurposed item that will add a lot of character to the table. I like the natural look you got to them, and I am not sure I want to know what they were storing in some of them from the strange colours in there, but it is a very nice touch.
Because they are fairly simple but have some painted patterns on them, I am going to award each of the 2 bases of them as about the time it would take to paint a standard figure, so 5 points per base for a total of 10 points. Hopefully I am not too far off, and they do look lovely.

Thanks Byron, your time estimation sounds quite right.
