Forté Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Tempting but no can do. Good luck to all who do though. Be some good stuff coming from this :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294154-get-your-bitz-in-order/#findComment-3753828 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dam13n Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Hmm... I may be tempted to do a 13th company style Bjorn conversion sometime soon... Especially if the rumour of a new Space Wolves dreadnought turns out to be true. Just to check... is the aim to present a completed (painted) model, or a picture at the "assembly complete but lacking paint" stage, or a progress log, or... ? I quite enjoy playing around with modelling when it comes to dreadnoughts, so this should be a good challenge for me to get involved in.

SSounds good :tu: and the finished entry should be (mostly) unpainted. There is a Conversation Challenge thread in the HoH where painted "challenge" models can be posted after the challenge.

Montuhotep Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Is part painted allowed? I have a Helbrute conversion done but it only has the undercoat/base coat on it at the moment.

Warsmith Aznable Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I have a walker conversion in mind but I'm not sure what end rules will be used. Maybe a dreadnought into a Contemptor or even a daemon prince? What kind of leeway can I get for an unusual concept?

Hyaenidae Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I got an old metal Chaos Dread I've been wanting to turn into a Venerable Dread to finish up my IW Dreadnought Talon. I might jump on this.

Grotsmasha Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 Is part painted allowed? I have a Helbrute conversion done but it only has the undercoat/base coat on it at the moment. Should be ok, as long as the conversions are clearly visable there won't be an issue. I have a walker conversion in mind but I'm not sure what end rules will be used. Maybe a dreadnought into a Contemptor or even a daemon prince? What kind of leeway can I get for an unusual concept? As the Challenge is more about Rule of Cool rather that WYSIWYG game-legal, as long as the finished model can be shoe-horned into one of the viable entries it'll be A-Ok I got an old metal Chaos Dread I've been wanting to turn into a Venerable Dread to finish up my IW Dreadnought Talon. I might jump on this. I think everyone would look forward to seeing this.....

MaliGn Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Man, I'd love to but it's taken me three years to finish my last walker conversion of the Furioso kit into something worthy of the true gods, but I'll keep an eye on this.

Aqui Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 How long is this running for?

KrautScientist Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Aw man, my Chaos Knight conversion is almost finished -- couldn't you have started this a month earlier? ;) Anyway, best of luck to all entrants! It'll be interesting to see what you guys can come up with!

Well I don't know how over the top one can make a dreadnought for a conversion challenge; but I seem to recall you saying something or other about a future tanks conversion challenge. That is one for sure that is going to need more than a month for work I'd imagine.
