My Conversion Challenge WIP


Recommended Posts

1 dice, 2 plastic golf tee's, whole bunch of plasticard, green stuff and supersculpy.

I've decided to give Maverike_Prime's Conversion Challenge a shot, there seems to be a little trash talk going on and I want in on it! Not sure if soliciting advice is allowed so I am only posting to throw down the gauntlet and let the rest of you suckers that are going to enter know whats up. There will be no repeat winners this time around!

On a more serious note, the goal is to make a Chaos Dreadnaught for my Tzeentch warband that looks birdlike without looking cartoony. Very WIP at the moment, gotta wait for GS to dry. Taking inspiration for the ball joints from the defiler I just finished and plan to make the arms similar to the defiler as well. What do you all think so far?

Lets see if anyone else is man enough to post up some progress and not wait until the last day to unveil their entry. Good luck to everyone that participates!

That die has caused more pain to my warband than legions of loyalist ever could! It will now be forever intombed within this insane killing machine for all eternity, of course if I keep failing my sanity rolls I could end up feeling foolish. Maverike_Prime, how did you know my greatest weakness was time, curse you for exposing me! Just glad paint doesn't need to be finished within 30 days.

Mostly a guess. It's also my greatest weakness. And in all truth, painting your conversion would be more likely to hurt your chances in my conversion challenge then it would be to help you.

Doesn't look like much yet but waiting for GS layers to dry takes time. Just trying to keep all of you other Conversion Challenge participants focused early so time doesn't become an excuse.

Real happy with the ball joints and the knees. The real work is in the shin armor and loin cloth, lots of detailed layers in my future. I'm going to start constructing the body next to keep me busy durring dry times. Next update will have that damn dice covered up and hopefully an upper body.

Sat down and made a little progress! I don't want any organic/mutation type stuff going on here so I made the head into a bird like shape and I'm adding a "metal" skin to it. So far it's just a beak but it's definatly staying, really not sure how the rest is going to be done. Hard to see in the picture but the loin cloth thingy is done and the shin guards are really close.
