My Dreadknight Re-pose


Aidoneus

Recommended Posts

I should start by saying that I really do love the model for the Dreadknight. I think it looks amazing! The only qualm I have with it is the pose. It's just standing there, looking really, well... stupid. So without changing anything about the way the model looks, I chopped apart some joints and worked them around into a move dynamic pose. I also happened to have half a rhino lying around (long story), so I threw that in for good measure. :HQ:

 

This is currently a WIP. The Knight is pretty much done, but the Rhino is going to become 1) more beat up, and 2) very obviously Chaos-y. There's even going to be a dying chaos marine crawling out of that open hatch on the side.

 

What do you think?

Thanks all! Nice to hear one's work is appreciated. I'll definitely post pictures when it's painted (possibly also when I convert the rhino).

 

RLS: The right leg and arm were 90% of the work. On the leg, I had to alter the hip, knee, ankle, and one of the toes. On the arm, I altered the shoulder, elbow, and wrist. Come to think of it... that's all the joints on both of those limbs. :P I also had to straighten the termy's right arm a bit, and bend his right leg.

 

The really fun part was taking a dremel to that Rhino. ;) Can't wait to go to town again to add battle damage.

Got the Dreadknight all painted up for the tournament last friday. Finished the cursed thing at 3:30am the night before. I think it turned out well though. Take a look.
