'you GET TO convert DA KOPTA!!!'
-- a Dakka Mekboy Challenge
You've seen a Dakka Painting Challenge before but now it's time for something a little different. Get ready for a Dakka Mekboy Challenge!
Mekboy Challenges dare you to create the coolest converted miniature you possibly can within the confines of the contest theme and rules. That means painting your submission is not strictly required as this contest is focused mainly on the conversion aspect of the hobby.
In this particular Mekboy Challenge, your goal is to take the plastic Deff Kopta model that comes in the 'Assault on Black Reach' Warhammer 40,000 box set, use your imagination and skill and come up with the coolest kustom kopta in existence!
For full details and rules regarding the contest please visit THIS THREAD in the Dakka Modeling & Painting forum.
We have a pretty major prize this time around, $60 (USD) in store credit plus free world-wide shipping from www.gorillatactics.org. GorillaTactics regularly offers a pretty substantial discount on the wide variety of gaming products from all the major game companies they stock, so in reality you'll be winning much more than $60 in whatever gaming product(s) you choose!
A big thanks goes out to the sponsors for this contest, www.gorillatactics.org and Dakka member Daggermaw, the latter of which not only came up with the idea for this challenge, but also kicked in a sizable portion of the prize from his own pocket!

Dakka Painting Challenge - BUMP IN THE NIGHT!
ONE GHOUL NOW STANDS ALONE!
A big congrats goes out to pretty much a brand new poster on Dakka Blended for his perfectly frightful paint job on the equally scary 'Gourmandise Obese' model from the Helldorado line of French miniatures.
I know I'll have nightmares after seeing this model!
Thanks again to to everyone who entered a model, it was again fun and inspirational.
We'll have another challenge coming in a few months, so if you wanted to participate this time and didn't get around to it, you'll have yet another chance soon.
If you missed voting, you can still check out all the other amazing entries in this thread.
