I meant making it into a riot shield.
Add a little window at the top and square edges on all sides.

Here's The raw materials for my project, still waiting on the wizard chap to arrive courtesy of fleabay. Seems a shame chopping up the Dragongrin Marrow lady, but I won't use her for fantasy so under the knife she goes!

Maybe I’ll shoot for a pair of entries, as the dwarf and this guy came together. Maybe whatever force threw the dwarf into the Underhive threw this guy too. I didn’t have an obvious conversion in mind when I chose to go with the dwarf.
I’ve not time to enter I’m afraid; but I did make these Warcry Iron Golems into Pit slaves recently! Bit of inspiration for you I suppose.
I recommend multiple entries. More chance of votes that way!
Do the goblin and make his shield into a riot shield...
You can also turn a sci-fi mini to fantasy.
Have you abandoned your Escher project? Would be a great opportunity to convert a Death Maiden or Wyld Runner from some elves... But if you only have dwarves, I see the challenge.
I did not. I ordered the Wild Hunt kit that is now OOP several months ago and it did not yet arrive. I would use that otherwise.
Those dwarves are all built and painted.
But! Do bloodbowl models as fantasy too? They do, right?

I definitely would, @Hawkins44. And I've seen others do, or ask, as well.
...because I have got a few blood bowl cheerleaders.
'Fantasy' and 'sci-fi' are slight restrictive terms, when we have pure historical (e.g. Bolt Action) and alternate (fantasy?) history (e.g. Silver Bayonet). I'd draw the distinction between real/fantasy 'past' and 'future' settings myself.
I definitely put Blood Bowl in the 'fantasy' side anyway. It's probably the easiest way to convert sci-fi/40k minis to fantasy.

If that's turning (historical) Napoleonics into (fantasy?) Turnip28, then it's not clear that it does fit. Though you could do something that definitely would, for instance converting Cadians.
The original description of the comp specifically mentioned Fantasy/Historical or equivalent so youre totally fine with Blood Bowl etc.
Oldie worldie to far future. Or back the other way of course.
Napoleonics into Turnip? Turnip is sort of Napoleonic fantasy so it's not so much a time jump as a setting jump (I could be wrong, my knowledge of turnip is limited).

Looking for bits and found these. Still with the shrink wrap on. Forgot I’d even bought them.
There’s mutants in there somewhere.
