nurglespuss Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I picked this chap up from Ebay on a crazy whim months and months ago, he was so thickly cacked in silver paint, and so bust up, Ithought I had made a daft mistake. However, after soaking in oven cleaner for a looooong time (three months to be exact) the paint finally loosened and fell off! Any how, after some pinning and repair work, I decided that (with the advent of my nex in progess SW army) to take advantage of the option to take 2 twin linked autocannons... As I see this dreadnought supporting long fangs, the 'non comatative' look of the model seemed appropriate. Anyhow, it was a bitch cuting of the ammo drums and re attaching to even out the weapons loadout, but I like the look. Anyway, I'll update this as i go, please comment and let me know what you think! (p.s. apologies for shoddy photos, but at least I remembered to take some during the process! :) ) http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs079.snc3/14653_312113650322_633810322_9168157_1525124_n.jpg http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs059.snc3/14653_312113660322_633810322_9168159_7861274_n.jpg http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs079.snc3/14653_312113670322_633810322_9168160_760500_n.jpg http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs079.snc3/14653_312113680322_633810322_9168161_3646035_n.jpg http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs059.snc3/14653_312113700322_633810322_9168164_3902528_n.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/183116-space-crusade-drwadnought-wip/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaleOpener Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Congrats on the paint removal. I so hate stripping models. I like the idea, you have, for this model. The face goes with the SW theme, and the autocannons fit nicely. Can't wait to see the finished piece!

nurglespuss Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 Hi there, he is all based (desert) and that really helps to bring the model together visually :P I'll post up some decent pics when i'm back on the inteweb proper!

Terrahawk Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Looking badass! :P Actually I have one of those stored somewhere along the game, maybe I should steal your idea? ;) But yeah, I think that feral/old school-look fits an SW army quite nicely, especially considering the Wolves have a ton of Dreads.
