Very cool!

Someone with better conversion skills than me should do one based on an old 40 Squat Trike! 8)

I should maybe have done this before but with 3 (4 counting today!) days to go here are the rules for the competition as posted on The Merry Mayhem Blog:

Deathroller Build Competition
And here you have the rules for our "DBC":

1. What do I need to do?
You just have to scratch build a Deathroller (or some "similar equipment" suitable for blood bowl environment, that could be able to participate "Deathroller Race"!

You should mail us at least two pics of your Deathroller: one before painting (no paint, no primer, or whatever ink you may wish to use), and one after you finished the job (deathroller completely painted and ready to hit the pitch)!
Note that you may send us the pics separately or at the same time, it's up to you as long as it's within the mentioned deadline.
You're welcome (and encouraged) to include a few lines of fluff with your entry.

2. Who can participate?
As long as you're following our blog, everyone!
So anyone who puts the effort in is welcome to enter.

3. When do I have to have this done?
We'll receive entries up to October 21st (including).
That means you have 6 entire weeks to think about it, check your bits box, think a bit more, glue your bits together, and slap them some paint, and send us the pics of your master piece!

4. So... what and how do I WIN?
Thats the easy part.
We'll be posting the deathrollers pics on the blog, as we get them.
When the deadline is met, we'll do a final post including all the competition entry's, and open a voting pool.
When the pool closes, the winner of the voting gets a pair of Neil's very own "Deathroller Race 2000" dice!


Eight excellent entries so far, but who knows maybe the winner is sitting in your imagination waiting to get out!

Regards

Neil
