I do not think I have enough bitz for this :( Going to have to salvage what parts i do have left and let you know.

Well there is some time, and as it's a Conversion Competition, it doesn't need to be painted.

Oooh love converting, one champion coming up ^_^

Does it have to be IW? ^.^
(I have an EC champ I'm gonna be working on that's pretty nice)

blackcell8 - April 9, 2012 08:31 PM (GMT)
For this one competition, yes, it does have to be an Iron Warrior. A future ones, however, might not be.

My problem is I do not have any spare bitz, bodies, etc. I can give it a try but I highly doubt I can make one with what little I have left.

Technically, no. The Conversion is for an Aspiring Champion, the Painting is for a standard Iron Warrior.

Nice try though :thumb:

For those that are worried, future contests will be much more varied, and not always run by me...

bollocks.. as Hushrong stated, I wanted to kill two imperials with one bullet..

One Aspiring Champion, one Iron Warrior, eh? *checks his bit box* Challenge Accepted on BOTH terms, good sir!

im chearing for you loki... erm im chearing for ya hush... erm im gonna need alotta palm palms

So I think I stated this in the shoutbox...but I could be delusional, anyways I have a question about what I can contribute to this contest.

I have built/converted up a mini that will be used as Kharn for the moment but whose future shall be that of a skull champ once I get a DP mini. Even without a DP, he will still be used as a champ when we get the new dex (going off presumptions of whats going to be in that codex).

I am wondering if this mini would be acceptable or if I'm stretching the requirements.

Thanks in advance!

Well, that just means it's an Aspiring Champion with Power Weapon, Plasma Pistol and Icon of Khorne :thumb: Which means, totally fine!
