Competition: New year, new kitbash

Finished
New year, new kitbash

In this competition, participants shall kitbash a physical miniature, then take a picture of it and submit to this competition.

  • Miniatures should preferable be kitbashed with parts from at least two, but preferably more, other models/kits

Where from: Minis can be from Warhammer 40k, Age of Sigmar, Horus Heresy, etc, Star Wars Legion, Star Wars Shatterpoint or any other products that you could kitbash something from.

Minimum for participation credit: Miniatures will be fully assembled with at least two miniatures used in their creation. The main parts of the mini should be from other models (don't just put a helmet from a Intercessor on a Bladeguard). For example, you could make a custom 40k Chaplain using a Grimaldus mini body, Sword Brother arm, Hellblaster pistol, Indomitus chaplain power pack, Bladeguard tilt shield and Mk3 helmet.

Minimum for eligibility to place: Miniatures will be fully assembled and fully painted using at least three colours. Painting or finishing the base for your miniature is not required, but may influence placement.

Grading criteria:

50% Kitbashing Effort (number of models used, extra steps taken (e.g. green stuff), clear concept) 25% Painting Effort / Detail (Use of various colours / general look of the mini) 25% Coolness Factor

  • Please try to make the photo look good, if I can't see the model, I can't place you highly. I want to see your amazing work, but if I can't I'll cry I'll have to place you lower.

Note: All entries must be built and painted by the participant.
