The Golden Bat Competition – Summer 2010 - Converting

[Tomj8937]

that conversion Alfika, is the bomb, its a demon and a half and a coffin worthy to carry Neferata herself in. Brilliant model!

 

[Malochai]

Agreed. I would love one. It's absolutely brilliant

 

[Forge]

I'm a little late and I had started this conversion not for this contest but rather to just play with it so I hope I have everything required for the rules.
I guess i'll post one for the work in progress, and another for finished? I hope thats ok.

Thanks

Black Coach

"Final Entry"

I leaned to far back in my chair and smashed my black coach somewhat so I rebuilt it and did some green stuff work on it and it turned out better then it was. I'm sad tha tI cant post one more picture to show the rear of the coach as its kinda cool, but I feel the flames on the rear wheels need to be recognized, the paint will be black with green accents tappering into an ethereal grey in the back as iff it is "flickering between the realm of living and dead"

 

[Malochai]

That does actually look quite nice

Thank you very much =)

I lost a tournament last week because I had primed it grey to get the painting points and people thought it was a forge world model unprimed doh!

 

[Malochai]

That sucks, man. And Forge World do like hardly any Fantasy stuff I would like to see some more from them in Fantasy, but all they're interested in is 40K, which is a real bummer.

Didn't you point out it was a conversion?

Some people knew because I had talked to them about it, others I told after and they were astonished, I lost the tournament by 1 point and I would have gotten 2 from the painting but ohh well its alright, Im going stop thread jacking this thread now haha.

FINAL

 

[Malochai]

@zer0aim; is that a Black Coach??

 

[logan054]

I see a lot of very cool ideas which I may well have to steal for my black coach which I want to make, I had actually thought about using the mordheim stage coach as a base.

 

[Disciple of Nagash]

@zer0aim; is that a Black Coach??

Well it's got a coffin in the back so I would have assumed so.....

 

[Malochai]

Yes, that's what my initial reaction was. I was just making sure; what's so wrong with that?
