Competition YakTribe Competition 16 "Pop Culture"

[djmothra]

"Talk about...Pop Muzik!"*

Welcome to YakTribe Competition 16 - (kind of**) chosen by @KungFuPanda after winning the last one with "Run You Rats"

OK, here is the deal for this one - make something / Paint Something that is based or themed on Pop Culture!
It could be a Movie, a Comic, a TV Show, a Band, a Book etc basically any real life entertainment serves as the theme for this one.

This can be a Mini, a Vehicle or a bit of terrain - it's basically open season time - no size restrictions

BUT...EXTRA RULE FOR COMP 16
We are adding an extra rule here...we are banning any references to Arnie or Sly - that means no Running Man, Predator, Terminator, Rambo, Conan, Rocky, Judge Dredd etc. In essence, we want some more thinking outside the normal boxes

Closing date is 6 weeks from now (which I make to be about Monday October 31st!)

Please post here you intention to enter - please keep full WiPs on your own plogs with occasional updates here.

UPDATE: Winner will get a specially made Kitbash from @King Redwart (most likely a Necro Hired Gun)

Any queries or questions @ClockworkOrange or @djmothra will advise.

Good Luck Yakkers!

*Any one remember this? Pop Muzik by M! (just showing my age now aren't I? )

**This comp theme was created by our very own @Malo and @KungFuPanda chose to go with it from a selection that we have kept from previously unused ideas (just so you guys know)


WINNERS!!!!


3rd place is @King Redwart with Dawg The (unpainted) Bounty Hunter

Congratulations @Ned Noodle !

Ok judges would you accept one of these:

- Viking boat inspired by tv series Vikings (would be showcase for my mordheim warband)
- Werewulf inspired by http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0027194/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 (would make excellent Ulfwerenar)

I do hope someone does plan nine from outerspace reference!

Ironically, Doomguy would fit into this one as well.

Although I won't enter, I suspect. Last one took a lot of time and it's something I'm running short of.

 

[Flamekebab]

Given I'd have to start from scratch my timing is terrible! I'm finishing off one pop-culture sculpt and casting another!

Hmm, perhaps I should prioritise a certain vehicle instead...

 

[Scumb4g]

This is going to require some thinking, as I have no clue what I would make for this comp yet.
I would love to join as usual, but need inspiration

I was going to go with a couple of Delaques singing a Right Said Fred number, but I've sadly broken 2 ribs so will have to sit (lay) this one out. I'll be really interested to see what everyone comes up with though.

Do it!

Not entered one of these comps before, on a bit of a time constraint because of "Armies On Parade", but I'm gonna give it a whizz....

I am doing Rubber Duckies Truck from Convoy....

Anyone seen this classic?

@Flamekebab you are right, went to brain stroming frenzy! No mr freeze either! d

Well perhaps something different from conan like subotai / bombaata or thulsa doom perhap?



GOD dammit I cannot stop it!

Pirates of the caribbean

bioshock

fortress by christopher lambert

I need to stop browsing internet and old memories!

lets hope this could help some people get few ideas. Brainstroming for the win!

 

[ClockworkOrange]

Lazy mod mode everything above this post is fine to theme your entries except Arni and Stallone references.

I'm in I reckon but don't have an imidiate idea.

 

[greenbac]

fortress! forgot about that classic!

 

[TakUnderhand]

fortress! forgot about that classic!

Intestination!!

 

[Xavier Bacon]

Definitely in. No idea what to do yet. Great theme!

 

[King Redwart]

@djmothra don't forget the winner gets a kitbash from me!

Currently it's going to be a Necromunda Bounty Hunter but I hope to have a selection to choose from (Scummer and Pit Slave probably). If the winner doesn't play Necromunda I could probably make a Mordheim/Fantasy Hired Sword but they would have to wait.

 

[Kaludram]

Ughhh, great theme, excellent ideas from @Loriel, but I'm not sure I am ready to commit again after two consecutive YakComps in the basement. I need time to let my ego recover...

...but then again, there's always Roland Deschain, Marshal Pentecost, and the Humongous beckoning to me from the edges of reason...shhhh, go back where you came from! It's not your turn to talk!

 

[trollmeat]

...you know I am on a Goliath kick at the moment, but forbid the obvious Arnie/sloan options :-|

No matter, I'll just continue the colour theme from my last two entries and make a Goliath Superman (gang hero/leader) :-D
