WEEKEND CHALLENGE 4: Action Pose!! - 40K Terra

Mart007 · 03-27-2008

This Weekend's challenge is to convert the most convincing action pose you can think of! Any mini, any size, your imagination is the key here!! Only one single mini is permited though this isnt a duel! In this case a single mini can be anything as long it is one model, ie Marine, Dred, tank, anything as long as it is one model!

TAKE A PIC OF YOUR MINI AND BITS HERE!!!

Good luck every one!

Daria · 03-27-2008

Sounds like a great project for this weekend. Cant wait to see what everyone comes up with. Good Luck everyone.

Baron Spikey · 03-27-2008

right I'm definitely getting in on this one, one question though- does it have to be painted?

Daria · 03-27-2008

Well I don't know whether we have to or not but I've decided to paint mine (might distract attention away from my attempt at an "action," pose).

Warmaster Romulas · 03-27-2008

ive got some bitz coming my way for a special project
if they get here im in if not ill probably still be inbut i wont start till friday my only day off this week

munkey joe paints · 03-27-2008

Ok well here it is!!! Romulas will recognize these bits as they are from him!!! well minus the base.

Mart007 · 03-27-2008

painted or unpainted is fine, we are looking for a really good pose with lots of movement and drama!!

cool beans

DeAd_cOmMaNdO · 03-27-2008

cool
id say count me in... but ill wait until i actually think of something i can do!

Brother Warchild · 03-27-2008

I am gonna have to give this one some thought,but i will def be in.

Baron Spikey · 03-27-2008

curse you, the easiest to find boxes of stuff were some of the new terminators and they wouldn't be any good for an action pose (plus I don't want to waste one if it all goes tits up), so I just spent half an hour climbing round in the dark dusty eves looking for my stuff.

Got 3 scout box sets, 2 tacticals, command squad, and my bitz box to get an action pose together. (oh yeah and the BT extras box as well)

Mart007 · 03-27-2008

lol, Scouts, they are good for poses!! I'm tying to think what I can do with an Eldar Guardian!

DeAd_cOmMaNdO · 03-27-2008

so we can start working on the models now?

Mart007 · 03-27-2008

As long as you get a proof pic before you start, yup! As soon as the proof thread goes up you can start, unless otherwise stated...

munkey joe paints · 03-27-2008

LOL yea Im workin with these catachans because all my stuff is packed!! I'll use these up in these comps I think, as I really dont use them often.....

r4wr89 · 03-27-2008

noooooooo !
i have absolutely NO bits or models to work with...not a one ! alas.
but i am watching eagerly. since the last few weekend competitions, man ! haha the level of talent 'round these parts is extraordinary :]

Prince of the Night · 03-27-2008

I'm in. Can't wait to see what kind of creativity everyone has got goin on inside their craniums.

Good luck to all.

Now........... to the bits box.

Baron Spikey · 03-27-2008

'whack a rabbit' (I included a little loin cloth thing just after I took the pic, also I might use a bigger base

)

lord marcus · 03-27-2008

i'm in this, but only if my dread arrives this weekend, otherwise i'll have to think of something wierd. btw, does it have to be painted?

Mart007 · 03-27-2008

Unpainted is fine.

Prince of the Night · 03-27-2008

O.K, after a couple of hours, going thru my stuff, I think I will try to do a Dark Eldar Assassin.

Mart007 · 03-27-2008

Interesting Prince, I wish I knew how you were going to pose it so could nick your idea and apply to an Eldar, i'm stumped, stumped by own damned challenge!!

Baron Spikey · 03-27-2008

damn, forgot to stick a backpack on that there proof pic, I'll see if I can get it painted. Shouldn't be too difficult being a World Eater (gotta figure out how to attach that chain, if I use it, without copious amounts of green stuff)

liveevil2000 · 03-27-2008

As soon as I saw this one I decided to do something I have wanted to do for a long time. The prophets have told of this day and it looks like the day has come.

I will have a pic of bits by tomorrow. The Evil matter in the the space between my ears is starting to heat up!
MUAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

I really wish I could share this with you, but I am not sure how I am going to pull this off without using GS. I have wanted to do a model like this for a very long time, but I have always lacked in the area of "putty".

All I can tell you for sure is I will have to reposition the legs and torso dramatically.

crimslain · 03-28-2008

I might be able to pull something together, whens the latest I have to post my stuff?
