Gillyfish Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Van San, any chance you could turn this into an article for the librarium? Pretty please??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanSan Posted March 11, 2009 Author Share Posted March 11, 2009 i just posted it in the tutorial section. But if the dread is ready i will write an article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Belial Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 The trick is that it will need to be broken into parts as there is a limit of 8 Pictures per article. I think it just needs a little run through a Word Processor to grab any spelling and grammar mistakes. Don't worry too much about the BB Coding, I'll catch it when it is submitted. Just add a short author's info at the end. Link to the Tutorial Send me a PM if you need any help. I can do a Quote and Paste, but I fear that would be robbing you of authoring a good article.

Arcadian Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Hi.. Fairly new to B&C, found it when I got back into the Hobby this past Christmas and started cleaning a couple years of Dust of my DA.. I was never happy with how they were and so I've restarted my army and began to retackle painting again. Your examples and your tutorial here has been very inspiring. I admit I amd doing pre-Deathwing Black for my Termies, and Dreads.. but watching how your DW has come together and how impressive it looks, has really helped me find ways to stay dedicated to tweaking that much better appearance out of my own minis. So from some ole Appalachian dude rediscovering his own love of the habby and game, Thanks A Bunch for taking the time and effort to post what you have in this thread and others. I greatly appreciate the attention given and can honestly say it has added greatly to my own enjoyment of todays 40k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLUGitIN Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 wouldn't the banner get stuck on bulkheads in a space hulk? :) speaking of which i was wondering if you were going to do some space hulk themed land raiders too? i guess they could just be transport torpedos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Toddius Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Vansan, that DW dread came out amazing. Really great execution and the weathering technique is beautifully done. The Techie "3" font was done with flare as well. Great Job. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atra angelus Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 That banner is made of pure win. Excellent dread man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Caedrius Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 The dread looks all kinds of awesome, but unfortunately the pics aren't showing up at all for the remainder of the topic :D Perhaps try using a flickr account rather than PB?; there's an upload limit per month, but no bandwidth issues!

VanSan Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 ok i have loaded up the pictures in my second photobucket account and posted them in the tuturial subforum. Please look there. And i`ve started my BR dread. On the one arm there is the close combat weapon and the multimelter. On the other arm i`m going to build some sort of a big shield. It should provide cover for the terminators in the Space Hulk. What do you think about this idea? http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu220/VanSan2/Cybotneu1.jpg http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu220/VanSan2/Cybot1neu2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Linky to VanSan's tutorial. I've also added it to the Unforgiven Painting Guides Looking good VanSan. What's next in the pipeline after the Dreads? Hmm... looks like you're a few Land Raiders short :D? Cheers I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krewl Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Linky to VanSan's tutorial. I've also added it to the Unforgiven Painting Guides Looking good VanSan. What's next in the pipeline after the Dreads? Hmm... looks like you're a few Land Raiders short <_<? Cheers I Isiah.... Landraiders in a space hulk.... tsss (Still at this level of painting I'd love to see LR's painted and more specific the great conversion work). Looking forward to the shield dread aswell, but... a Multimelta on the dread? You're great at building your units, but I personally feel a plasmacannon would look better. (Feel free to ignore it work any reason you like off course, I just don't MM's on dreads. And SH is supposed to be about cramped corridors, bulkheads and blips :wallbash: And lots and lots of paranoia (Think Space marines in Aliens), it really captured that feel with the blip system.

VanSan Posted March 19, 2009 Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 But a MM is very useful in a Space Hulk :) ok here new wip shots: http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu220/VanSan2/IMG_5349-1.jpg http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu220/VanSan2/IMG_5351-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaplain Lucifer Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Wow! Riot shield dread is awesome. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillyfish Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Excellent as ever. I particularly like the pose - it really adds something to what can normally be a fairly static model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Are Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Excellent conversions and great painting! Love the shield on the last dread. Only thing that does not feel just right is that the MM appears to be to extend too far from the CCW. It feels like it could never reach anything with the CCW because the muzzle on the MM gets in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanSan Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 @Brother Are Thats correct and similar to the "banners in a Space Hulk" problem. In the end for me the overall impression is more important than the realism. And let`s put it this way, who needs a close combat weapon when he can have a multimelter ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovaScotius Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Excellent models and guide... very impressed! About the Multi-Melta and Dreadnought Close Combat Weapon problem... I'm going to stick my neck out and guess that the sheer weight, size and power of a Dreadnought slapping someone with a Multi-Melta is bound to sting a little, so I'd say that the Multi-Melta itself could constitute the DCCW!
