sethohman Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Ok, it looks like I've got everyone I'm going to get - I'll get started on the assignments and get them out as soon as I can. Super Sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristof65 Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 Wouldn't you know it - the night I plan on working on these, I get sick and crash, thus throwing my whole schedule off. I'm working on them now, hope to have them out later tonight or sometime tomorrow. I appreciate your patience - but my goal is to have it in everyones hands before warlordgarou makes his FLGS trip - thanks for that motivation.

Don't worry about it too much - worst case scenario, I just have to go again. What a shame that would be, huh? Just worry about getting better.

kristof65 Posted February 27, 2010 Author Share Posted February 27, 2010 Ok, everyone's exchange assignments are sent. If you didn't get yours, please let me know. Also, I think I send a couple on without attaching the forum name. If you're one of those people, let me know, and I'll forward you the forum name. Remember - you have until April 30th to get your conversion done and sent to your Exchange Recipient Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted February 27, 2010 Moderator Share Posted February 27, 2010 Got my assignment, got my conversion done. Now for the hard part - remembering to get to the post office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristof65 Posted February 27, 2010 Author Share Posted February 27, 2010 Ok, I knew you were going to be fast Froggy, but it hasn't even been 24 hours since I sent out the assignments! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted February 27, 2010 Moderator Share Posted February 27, 2010 The world is Lego. It's painting that's hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sethohman Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Mini is ordered. As soon as it gets here, I should be done pretty quick! Conversions are much easier than painting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristof65 Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 Is it sad that this is my idea, and I'm having a hard time coming up with a concept to execute? Just spent an hour at the FLGS, and still had no flashes of inspiration... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warlordgarou Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Once I got over the feelings of inadequacy caused by Froggys immense awesomeness, I got my rear over to the FLGS. I had written down a bunch of SKUs for possible starting points, and foolishly forgot to write down what each one was. Nothing but a notecard with 14063, 2789, 3022, 14234, 4968372, 29458484 and so forth. Eventually I tossed the card, started browsing, and wandered out with only one extra miniature beyond what I think I will need for the project. And some comics.

Moderator Froggy the Great Posted March 1, 2010 Moderator Share Posted March 1, 2010 Once I got over the feelings of inadequacy caused by Froggys immense awesomeness . . .Hey now. Let me inspire sure, but don't go disheartening or anything. Seriously. I'm doing this to have fun, not to "win". A suggestion on inspiration - Look at random bits and stuff and wonder "If I were 28mm tall, what would that be? How could I use it? How could I graft it onto myself to make me more awesome?" Then find a figure that could do that, and the rest is details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a little shocking to see that you are already done, but that just means I need to up the bribe if I am not your lucky recipient. I had a general idea of what I wanted to do, saw a figure that would work, saw another which will provide plenty of inspiration (that would be the extra I picked up), and found the figs that will help provide the extra bits I need. I just need to get some time with a razor saw and start greenstuffing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyrmgear Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Gah! I love doing conversions (note, this does not mean I am any good at them :). I hope this goes well enough to do another, I definitely want in next time(I really should read through the forums more thoroughly when I visit...)!!

kristof65 Posted March 2, 2010 Author Share Posted March 2, 2010 So far this one has gone smoothly enough that I'm planning on doing another. I've already learned a couple of things about this as well - frex, I don't think I'll narrow it down to Warlord armies next time, and I'm not going to worry about bases so much. The real indicator will be how many people follow through - so far, I appear to be the slacker of the bunch. I'm also comptemplating a series of Conversion Challenges. These wouldn't be exchanges, but more like a challenge to whomever wants to participate to take the designated mini(s) and post their conversion of said figure.
