Rellik · 12-22-2007

im spending all my time on painting, cause i have no conversion skills

.

Mart007 · 12-22-2007

I'm no converter! I havent actually even tried really, but the sticky mess's I have ended up with GS is a good sign of how lame I am!

I'm passing, but only because I don't know where to start!

Love you Steve

Ides · 12-22-2007

Well, I have five largescale marines to get through and some vague ideas about what to do with them...

Lord Commander Erus · 12-22-2007

I'll see what I can pull together.

r4wr89 · 12-22-2007

DeAd_cOmMaNdO · 12-23-2007

um, any chance of moving this to.. ooh, i dunno, three days ago?

Sharpe · 12-26-2007

I'll try I guess. I was going to make a kill team anyways. Do we need to show a painted version or should the final one be unpainted?

munkey joe paints · 12-26-2007

well you could enter the painting comp too.....

Sharpe · 12-26-2007

I meant should our final entry for this competition be unpainted?

God_Grinder · 12-26-2007

hmm dose it have to be 40K? i got a couple fantasy conversions im thinkin of, and have been more into that latly. just curios.

munkey joe paints · 12-26-2007

it says "for conversions only" so i would assume no. but if you do i guess you would not sway the decision. but I dunno.......

Models MUST be unpainted, and single minis ONLY.

As it says, do anything you want, but un-painted single minis only.

hairyyahoo · 12-27-2007

although this isn't to say that you can't then enter it onto the painting comp afterwards, just get a few pics of it unpainted first.

But of course! Though you MUST show a complete UN-converted (as in pile of bits just off spru, etc..) next to a newspaper or other printed date verifying you started on the correct date, as you also must show a TOTALLY unpainted/primed mini the same way for the painting comp.

Nanolathe · 12-27-2007

I'm in.

SteveBerenyi · 12-27-2007

ok, here is how the judging works, When we have all the entries completed, each participant will get 1 vote on a mini that is not their own.

you get to choose the winner. Simply, most votes wins,

If a tie, (lets assume 1st place) the 2 first place winners get 1st and 2nd places. and split both prizes. so...

1st & 2nd each would get 7 rep and 3rd place would get 2 rep.

easy enough no?

I'm in on this BTW

DeAd_cOmMaNdO · 12-27-2007

well im out in that case.

gives you other guys a chance...

DeAd_cOmMaNdO · 12-27-2007
