Two New Conversion Contests
« on: January 29, 2008, 04:05:55 AM »
Warhammer-Empire.com is pleased to announce two new conversion contests.

Our last contest was won by Brian Lee, giving him the honour of choosing the theme for these two new ones.

1)  Front Rank
This is something almost everyone can participate in.

  • must include 5 minis including a champion, musician, standard bearer, and two troopers.
  • must be from core, state troop infantry. (spearmen, halberdiers, swordsmen, crossbowmen, hundgunners)

2)  Unit Filler
For those who want more freedom to be creative or who aren't working on any state troops.

  • can be from any infantry unit
  • size should be from 2x2 up to 3x3 normal 20 mm bases
  • can use any number of minis

Closing Date will be be March 9th, the second Sunday of March.

For more details please see the contest thread in the Brush and Pallet.

quick question, do they have to be painted also?
The Dane: "Where's Leo?"
Irish Hoodlum: "If I tell ya, how do I know you're not gonna kill me?"
The Dane: "Cuz if ya told me and I killed ya and you were lyin' I wouldn't get to kill ya then!

See the contest thread.
Quick answer: no, but painting will function as a tie-breaker in case of a draw.
Rufas the Eccentric: "Dendo is in Delaware because of their relaxed laws concerning speedos in public places."
Notts: "i'd rather get raped by an angry bear than try, or face this list."

I suggest something to do with the upcoming Marienburg campaign to generate interest or a Rufas the Eccentric contest.  Either/or would be appropriate, in my opinion.
Me and Wissenlander had babies!

not together.

finding photographic evidense that Wiss smiles is going to be hard...

We're a bit wrapped up with the Marienburg Campaign at the moment.

I know that's not much consolation for the mainly modellers guys, but we're doing something for the gamers at the moment.

I suspect we might try to target a conversion contest on a Marienburg army list character/unit, and save the 'winners' choice from last time until the Autumn, but we'll see.

Give us a couple of weeks guys please ..............

Maybe we need a Mod dedicated to the "Brush and Palette" forum, who handles conversion and painting contests etc.
Let's have an election!  :-D
