Well here I've been watching this thread for probably a year, I think it's finally time to post something in it. Finally had the drive to finish this thanks to Unluckyguardsman's awesome competition. There are definitely some other great entries, at least one of which has already shown up in this thread. Anyway, here she is, my Saint Celestine Conversion.



Very brief background:
Spoiler:
Living Saint Bellanya began her service as a Sister Hospitaler and was renowned for her kind treatment of patients, known as Gentle Annie. She became a living saint during her defense of patients during a chaos uprising, and went on to fight with the newly-created Order of the Sable Heart.

Cutthroatcure- I cheated and used some non-GW parts; it's the bottom half of the warmachine Harbinger of Menoth. Still metal, and still a royal pain to put together, but I think it ended up working out.

Yes, yes he is flipping the bird. My opponents always said his presence was like a big middle finger that wouldn't go down, so I cut that stupid pewter res orb out of his hand and made him flip the bird. A lot of my inspiration comes from what my opponents say

And thanks! The scythe blade was a pain to cut out. Glad to see my effort is appreciated.

My new best conversion. Do scratch builds count?

My new Deff Dread I have dubbed 'Da Koach.

Here is some fluff. If you want to know why. It's silly really.
But none the less I like it.

"‘Da Koach’
Da Koach is brutal, kunnin an kik ass. ‘Es a propa Bad Ass. ‘E ‘as neva left ‘is Kan. ‘E popped out of ’is spore insid’ da kan an killed it’s last owna an started mukkin about with da kontrols. Dat day ‘e killed mor’ den too Undred, most of dem Ork. E’ lived by eatin and drink’n da blood dat dripp’d off ‘is fist. Afta lotza kampains on lotz ov worldz ‘is Kan ‘as been remaked lotsa times ova, not wun part is da same as it woz befor. ‘E likes ‘is drilly fist tho an’ ‘e makes it on ‘is Dred evry time. E’s funnie, ‘e kalls imself ‘Da Koach coz’ wen ‘e dus the killy thingys ‘e sais ‘e is puttin da eneme thro dere drillz. Ahh, Haa, Haa.
