NatG Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I was commissioned to paint a Space Wolves Dreadnought. I did not do the conversion, the dreadnought came to me converted. I just painted it and based it. You can find the YouTube video showing it here: Thanks for having a look, all comments and advice welcome.

Firepower Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Looks pretty wicked, and like it was a fun model to paint. The weathering and color fades are excellent. The one thing I would try to improve is the eyes. The red around the socket gives the impression of OSL, but the eye's themselves don't: they're the same base red. Adding a whiteness to make them actually seem illuminated might make a world of difference in pulling off the effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexCrute Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 A marvel of grimdark far-future technology this, and the paintwork is marvellous. I think photos will garner you more comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zincite Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I think this is the first Dreadnought I've seen with extended legs that actually looks good. The NMM is lovely, as are the vents on the back. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ambroz Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Looks amazing but it doesn't really strike me as a Space Wolf dread though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Something Wycked Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Looks amazing but it doesn't really strike me as a Space Wolf dread though. As beautiful as it is, I feel the same way. It looks more Chaosy than Space Wolf to me, probably because of how different the color is from Space Wolf Grey/Blue. Also, +1 to what Firepower said. Stunning model on the whole! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightlordsrock3564 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 is this dornian heresy or normal wolves?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NatG Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 I have to agree the eyes would have worked better if I'd have gone for an orange highlight, instead of the VPA Tail light Red and VMC Vermilion colours I used. Also It could have used a couple of Runes on it. Like in the spaces on the shins. As for it's slightly ambiguous look, it is not dornian heresy / chaos. It is in fact going to be used in an Iron Wolves army. That is why it got the silver head, well that and it looks cool I guess. Thanks for all the great comments and advice, I really appreciate them.

Olgerth Istaarn Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 OK, the bloodcrusher head is a stroke of genius. A dreadnought that can BITE YOUR HEAD off. Awesome. I'm not entirely digging the feet of it though, they look too small and thin to support all that bulk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
