The Kitbash Competition - May (Complete projects thread)

[flemingmma]

Once again we join for the third ever Kitbash competition. This months theme is "Battleline"

So this month contestants are to create either a new battleline/elite unit for their faction of choice. You can post 1 model which would be the basic format for your new unit or you can make a whole unit with new leaders special weapons and whatever else.

If you're after the participation thread its over here

Here are the rules

1. The finished model is not to be painted but photographed as bare metal/plastic/whatever but if you have painted/primed it black and white photo's are okay

2. Its got to be to the 28mm scale of warhammer, no foot high beautifully sculpted monstrosities.

3. Greenstuff can be used anywhere from gap-filling all the way up to a full sculpt.

4. Each entrant can post Multiple entries without limit

5. 1 calendar month build time so anytime between today (1/05/2018) and a month from now (1/06/2018)

6. Have fun

How to enter

In the participation thread post something along the lines of "I (insert username here) undertake this month's challenge to build at least one new unit for (insert faction here)"

In the participation thread feel free to post WIP pictures and swap ideas but once you have finished your mini/unit post in the completed projects thread stating that this is indeed one of your projects and a series of 5 photo's as shown below. (for multiple units stick them in a line in the one photo and then organise them dramatically for you final photo with individual photo's for special weapons/leaders)

1 Front view

2 Right view

3 Rear View

4 Left View

5 Dramatic angle (not necessarily this angle just an angle that you feel best shows off your mini)

Once the challenge closes I will run a poll to decide and audience favourite as the grand champ and I'll declare a personal favourite as well.

My first entry are some more piratey black ark corsairs. I really think that if they're being pirates and trading with the free peoples and such they might move onto powder firearms rather than sticking with weedy crossbows as they are they'll be count as darkshards.

2 more days to get your entries in, I've got one to photograph but I'm really happy with this month

[Mayple]

I'll jump in next month Didn't find the time to get together a good conversion this time around.

[flemingmma]

so its the 1st of june and the competition is closed. I didn't get my second unit in but these things happen. I'll make the voting thread and the thread for this month.

I'm loathe to call this complete, as I technically need 20, however as a proof of concept I'm happy to say 'complete' . Corsairs as Darkshards. I even managed to get some shields as part of a wider purchase. I did also manage to get hold of a range of crossbows, which stopped me getting the full ten done. Also, the relegation of the Bolt Thrower and Drakespawn Sorceress to Legends sorta makes these redundant... 

Anyway:

Edit: my collage looks really blurry, so here's one of the original shots. Blurry for anyone else? 

[flemingmma]

I'll allow it

Thanks! Motivation to complete 10 ran out when the sole reason for doing them was taken away, then waiting for additional bits truly killed the project.
