Here is my entry into this years Christmas conversion contest at our local GW store. It came in second...,

:grin:Merry Christmas all, and God Bless!:victory:

Hehe, that's awesome. Really. I don't have much to compare it with, but you have a pretty solid contestant there.

But I wonder... How did you make the tree, the snow man and so on? Allways nice to hear how conversions are done.

:grin:Merry Christmas all

Thanks, you too! k:

and God Bless!:victory:

I can do without that.

 

[homestar]

awesome! great pose work. i like the one middle the best

But I wonder... How did you make the tree, the snow man and so on? Always nice to hear how conversions are done.

The tree comes from the little Christmas villages they sell at this time of the year. Wait a few more days and they will be 50% off at most stores. The snowman, hat, snowballs, etc... is all GW green stuff.

As for the God Bless...,

I can do without that.

Well, certain people would disagree, but this forum is no place for discussing so.

I always thought the planet's axial tilt was the reason for all seasons. ;-)

Regardless, that's a fantastic job man. Pure brilliance.

Haha very cool, I'm digging it. I'd have been too tempted to do something vaguely creepy just for laughs, like have a Lord of Slaanesh with a really tacky fake beard and santa hat sitting on the multi-purpose holiday throne that they have in the mall, and have a couple of daemonette "elves"... I'll let you read into that as much as you like. haha...

I think the only thing I'd have done differently would've been to have the marine next to the snowman have his helmet off, so you can see the seriously pissed expression. And maybe used a multi-melta, just for the sake of having the heat-based weapon.

 

[Galahad]

I think it works fine, because SM helmets generally look seriously pissed off as it is.

And Lasers *are* heat-based...a multi-melta would have just turned it to a puddle.

Nice Work Dude, its always a pleasure seeing your models.

 

[cccp]

[Lord Sinkoran]

Wolf: About 2 weeks..., The conversion didn't take long, but I am a really slow painter.

My god, man. If that come in second, first must've been Jervis Johnson himself!

Dirge Eterna: The guy who came in first had a Santa's sleigh made from a Rhino Transport with an ogre for a Santa pulled by 9 Hell Hounds and the lead hound's nose actually lit up! He did a great job and deserved to win.

 

[The Wraithlord]

That is fantastic Fist!! Lol, I love it. Just so cool


Btw, who came in first then?

 

[Damned Fist]

Btw, who came in first then?

Wraith: Al..., Who else?:angry:

 

[The Wraithlord]

Ahh. Yeah Al does tend to make very good conversions.
