Chompers Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Well seems I may have been a bit hasty posting the dread in the Hall of Honor, after hearing people thought it looked like it belonged in a chaos army I decided some alterations were in order. Added some more astartes iconography and changed the pose a bit, but it's done now i swear. for good. period. til next time http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy255/chompers99/IMG_1777.jpghttp://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy255/chompers99/IMG_1793.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakiq Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 This looks awsome! :o Very original idea, got any fluff for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chompers Posted September 19, 2009 Author Share Posted September 19, 2009 Nothing carved in stone, I have a theme and some basic ideas I base my conversions around but it's pretty flexible. It's all about the modeling to me, so if I build up something I like the looks of, I'll run with it and the chapter background can change to fit the model.

Chompers Posted September 19, 2009 Author Share Posted September 19, 2009 Bonus points for anyone who can tell me what the sword's crossbar used to be :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malanok Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Nothing carved in stone Pun intended? *shakes head* Anyhoo! Awesome model... as for the crossbar, it looks like the stock from a gun... Malanok P.S what did you whittle to make the blade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostbear_100 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 The crossbar looks to be from a scout heavy bolter bipod if i'm not mistaken. Also, excellent model. Love the stone pattern on the shoulder guards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HVNSNTSOLDIER Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Really cool! Kinda reminds me of a Space Wolf runepriest for some reason. Very cool, very origional! Wonder what a dreadnaught would look like? Giant stone golem? LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chompers Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 Some of the detailing isn't quite finished but it's as close to done as it's ever likely to get http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy255/chompers99/IMG_1789.jpghttp://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy255/chompers99/IMG_1792.jpghttp://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy255/chompers99/IMG_1791.jpghttp://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy255/chompers99/IMG_1790.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retributis Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 The gun sits a bit high on the mounting and I would've moved the claw arm out a bit as if it was going to swing, but there's a nice sense of motion conveyed with the legs and I'm digging the rock motif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulceber Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I like the rock motif, but the dreadnought seriously looks like a worshipper of Khorne. -M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlagueBearer Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 That looks nice!!! Although I hope it does not smash when it strikes power or termie armor... The shoulder pad also looks fantastic with the blade. I would love an army of such brutes!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chompers Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 @ forgemaster, the armor plating on the dread is just plasticard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
