savis Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Hi there, Just thought I'd post my two latest ebay recoveries. One old metal venerable dread (that was converted to chaos and basically stuck together with green stuff) and one standard plastic. Both were stripped and cleaned and then overhauled with minor conversions so they matched the imagery of my DIY chapter. They are painted to a table top quality. Please tell me what you think. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/28/116493_md-Dreadnought,%20Rifleman,%20Space%20Marines.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/28/116494_md-Dreadnought,%20Rifleman,%20Space%20Marines.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2010/6/28/116495_md-Dreadnought,%20Rifleman,%20Space%20Marines.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinyRhino Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Nice work for refurb work. Not a huge fan of the weedy connection points on the autocannons. Looks like a stiff breeze would disarm these guys :) Paint work is very nice, and I like that freehand whorl on the plastic Dread's chestplate.

savis Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 I hear you about the joints, I'll try to remove the magnets and countersink them to make them less flimsy. Thanks for the nicecomment about the freehand, it's an actual mayan symbol said to represent all consciousness that has ever existed in this galaxy.

Divergent Reality Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 The freehand is rather nice. I also agree about countersinking the magnets. It will make them a bit more flush, enhancing the armored feel of the dreadnoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glayvin34 Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 it's an actual mayan symbol said to represent all consciousness that has ever existed in this galaxy. That's awesome! I bet a Dreadnought would have a very unique concept of consciousness... Do you have a link to a detailed explanation of that symbol? If not, cool, I'm just curious.
