Twenty-nine entries and I can't for the life of me think of how I'll choose three out of these...won't make it much better, but I've decided to select (and draw, of course) five winners. There'll be something special for the overall winner, I just haven't decided what.

I've thought of it, but I want to sharpen my own decision-making smile.png

Delvarus is progressing fast, so expect the contest to end by next Saturday or so.

Edit: The_Chaplain, is there any chance for you to take some sharper pictures of your conversion? Some details are hard to figure out.

Yes, absolutely-- I wanted to get pics up before your deadline, but my camera phone hates me. I'll borrow my fiances macro camera and post better ones ASAP

I might swap him out if I get my librarian finished in time.

Edit: I was really happy until just now, when realized that I forgot to clean off the model before attaching the strap made of cardstockwhoops.gif

The model was successfully cleaned and I have added a combat blade, as well as some better pictures.

Though the competition seems more than fierce at this point, I have chosen an entry. Cobbled together from pieces of the Dark Vengeance chaplain, the Strikeforce Ultra terminator captain, the Games Day 2008 thunder hammer captain, the Sternguard Veterans sprue, and a head from the ever-wonderful Space Marine Commander set, I present Chaplain Harrion of the Crimson Lords! Will update if I get him painted before the deadline.

Greyall, uploaded some *hopefully* better pictures of Chaplain Halford; lighting was unfortunately pretty crappy with the rain we've been experiencing in my neck of the woods today.  

Is his bike called the Painkiller by any chance?

Haha, it might as well be.  I'm not even going to lie; I'm a huge metalhead, and Judas Priest is without a shadow of a doubt my favorite band-- I drew out the initial concept for the model while listening to Judas Priest's "Defenders of the Faith" album, and the name felt fitting.   I can't help but picture a chaplain smiting heretics while belting out hymnals like Rob Halford, Bruce Dickinson or even Lemmy at this point.   Halford actually is a familial line in Britain however, and playing up the medieval/knightly theme was my original intent (paying homage to one of the gods of metal is an added bonus).

 

Thanks Greyall for hosting this challenge! There is some fierce competition brewing!

Well, I'll just check how this thread is coming along...

By the Throne, there's some absolutely brilliant stuff here.

There's two thoughts been chasing themselves through my head for the last ten minutes:

"Damn, that's good" - thought each time I see another model in this thread, or pick out a detail I'd missed on first glance.

"Well, I might still make it if Greyall goes mad and opts to draw the top thirty" - thought just before I scroll down and see the next picture.laugh.png

EDIT:

Purge the typo! Purge it with fire and rage!

You have no bloody idea how hard I'm working on my Iconoclast to replace my current entry, sir.

Must get some Unification era Legionnaires in this competition. :P

Fear not Heathens, our brother Barabbas already beat you to the punch with this badass precursor:

I have this fellow. VIII legion Unification veteran.

Hi, hope Im not too late to enter.

 

This is my Scythes of the Emperor Chapter Master "Thrasius", he's made up from various bits from forge world and GW.

 

I built it quite a while ago now and just never got around to painting him, the idea I had in mind when working on him was simple really..........MAKE HIM BADASS!!

i know he is subpar compared to many, but this is The old Bird. the for a time, leader of my raven guard, before they went traitor. the only decent picture i took of him was this one, and it pretty shoddy. veteran of a thousand wars, a man of old earth and a slayer of kings, The old Bird was cast away from command and discarded decades before the dropsite massacre, yet he still fought, and died, on those accursed obsidian sands.

(the wrist to mace hand joint is meant to be at that angle, don't worry, its not broken.tongue.png . the gap was eventually filled with gs)
