Good stuff!
How is everyone else getting on? Have you chosen all your minis? Taken your WIP pictures? Even started painting yet?

I am doing mine. I have taken a WIP pic, but thought you wanted all pics at the same time.

I'm pretty sure I've settled on a mini... but it may suffer/undergo some conversion work prior to painting. Then there will be WIP shots... I promise...
Just one other little detail - I came to the decision that pretty much all Zion Rifles squads would contain a sniper. The models would be converted, and it would be in the fluff, but in game terms it would just count as another lasgun (as the squads already have special weapons) - there are reasons for this madness, but I won't go in to it here.
The point is, could I enter one of these? They look like normal lasguns (just a little longer)...

Not my contest, but I think it should be fine. My entry has a slightly modified lasgun variant, but as long as it's clear that it is a lasgun (or equivelant) I think it should be fine.

Yeah, why the hell not? ;D
You know I love crazy conversions anyway!

If converts weren't allowed then Mr 3ff3ct would be a very silly man indeed. But he isn't. Excellente.

Converts? Like people who change from one religion to another? Why surely you mean conversions, old boy?

Well, I just got done moving apartments (Yay I finally get a garage to convert into my workshop!), and with everything in such a state of disarray and most everything being still packed I will not be entering my initial idea for the Golden Guardsman... I dug through the bits box last night and threw together a guardsman with a lasrifle that I think that many of you will find rather interesting. And best of all, it is a rather simple conversion.I will be taking my obligatory WIP pic today so that I can start painting it.

Mr 3ff3ct would be a very silly man indeed. But he isn't. I may have to use that in my defence in the future commissarbob: Very jealous at your garage workshop, I have my study/hobby room/laundry room untill I get a bigger house..... @rt: thanks for the liguistic clarification ;D

I'll submit my pics either this afternoon or tonight. Good thing I read this post today as the only guards I have will hopefully be leaving my house this coming Monday, as long as my ebay bidders pay quickly.
