Metallicop Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Here it is so far! I havent really worked on it recently, as it mainly needs GS to fill in all that horrible GK iconography and purity seals. The goal is for it to be smooth with armour plates, as my Iron hands go minimum on scrolls, purity seals, and other tacky awards. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/legs_back.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/legs_front.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/torso_front.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/torso_front_left.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/torso_rear.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/size_compare.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/blue_tac_together.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/blue_tac_together2.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/torso_blue_tac_arms.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/Metallicop/DCCW.jpg Pretty much I had to use some blue-tac to keep it together for some of the pictures, as I havent decided if i'm going to use magnets to keep the torso to the legs, or pin it together. Also, the pictures came out reversed (thanks cameriod.com)... the DCCW is on the right side and ASS cannon on the left. I'll most likely do some GS work on my day off tomorrow so I can work on my commander at the same time (and not have to worry about preparing too much GS at once)!

Seres Blackthorn Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Incredible Dread. Almost makes me want ot go join the Iron Hands but I got others wanting paint. Very crisp converting overall making this something to be proud of indefinately.

Dark Disciple Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Very nice model, I like the use of the Penitant Engine arm. The only thing that looks a little odd is the assault cannon drum though it may just be the angle. Should look great when you get some paint on it!

Metallicop Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 You're right Disciple, I noticed the drum barell looks a little odd ... Kinda floating in place... I'll greenstuff a part on the back that it will look like it's holding it in like it clamps into place to be swapped out fast.

Boo Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 He looks great! The asscannon looks really brutal, great idea with the drum. I noticed the AoBR dreadnought had his melta on the wrong side, haha, couldn't figure out how you did that! :down: Well, good work so far, now I'll wait with anticipation on him being painted up.

cathar the great Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Looks good. I like the legs and sarcophagus a lot but the weapons look a bit too flimsy Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/158829-iron-hands-venerable-dreadnought/#findComment-1861286 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metallicop Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 I was hoping for going away from the typical boxy-looking dreadnought, especially when it comes to the weapons. I think the DCCW arm so far is a far more sleek looking, but looks solid and has more mobility (and necessary range) than the classic DCCW's. One thing I didnt like about the standard DCCW was the way it looks like it cant reach anywhere, and thus would have to swing it's whole upper torso to land a hit on anything not directly standing in front of the weapon.
