The theme is Statuesque Statue as suggested by @Lord_Ikka:

Create a statue that would be a fitting piece of art in the Underhive. It could be some sort of heroic piece (suitable for either the Uphive or damaged and torn up), something cobbled together as a Cawdor shrine, a Guilder's self-important tribute to themselves, or anything your mind finds fitting.

You have up to and including the 23rd December. (I ended the theme poll late so bonus day yaaay!)

We had a similar theme quite recently so remember if you started something for that it won't be eligible unless you render it into its component parts again first.

Usual rules apply except where they don't.

Have fun and get creative!

I hereby summon @Lord_Ikka and @MedMos to choose themes for Comp 54!

I'll get a poll up once we have the suggestions.

Not sure what to suggest? Take a peek at the Brainstorming thread!

Lifted straight from the tribe brainstorm!
How about… “Mixx it up!!” - we know occasionally fighters split from their house and join another (traitors!!!) so why not convert one to another??

So we could have a Van Saar that’s joined the Goliaths, an Escher Cawdor or A Ratskin Delaque?? (yeah lets include Outlanders and Ash Wastes gangs too)

So, you want to make them look like they’ve moved over to the look and feel of their new house but still retain a bit of their previous look too.

Just think it might make for an interesting modelling opportunity and for Neo-Goliath players, there’s a good opportunity to make a legit “unborn” model for ya!!
 
Well, we had the godly erection a while back, and I did something similar recently that might be interesting-

A Rogue Trader fleet in BFG can definitely include a variety of non-Imperium-design vehicles. Also a tired trope, but here we are all these years later, and it is still a useful trope.

A tired trope. How about the Imperium looting some Ork stuff for a change?
Given it’s one moving to another but retaining a feel of their former affiliations wouldn’t that make them Digganobs in spaaaaaaace?

How would you do it in Bolt Action? Undercover spy?
 
Lots of other nations vehicles were used by Germany. They had whole sets of designations for them and everything. And in the Western Desert it wasn't unusual for vehicles like trucks to be captured and recaptured by each side as the lines moved.

Edit: poll is up, it'll end on Saturday evening.

I will, however, be trying my best to make a centre piece for a shrine to Slaanesh! (Iv been watching a lot of Rocky Horror Show lately so be warned) 😵‍💫🤗
