Brother Christopher Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I'm planning to scratch build a Contemptor Dreadnought and the biggest issue I see at the moment is making the head. By comparing the blue-printed head to a regular SM helmet it seems that they are roughly the same size. Could anybody who has an original Contemptor confirm this, or is the dreadnought's head bigger?

Marshal Traben Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Here's a pic where i put a Contemptor head and a SM helmet next to each other. I hope it helps.

lhg033 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 i wonder if the plastic ven dread heads would fit what you want or if they are the same size as regular helmets?

Marshal Traben Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 The plastic ven dread heads do not fit in the Contemptor. Unless you cut away the lower part of the ven dread head.

lhg033 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 fair enough - is it a closer size match than a marine helmet though? am intrigued Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/256690-contemptor-dreadnought-head/#findComment-3124193 Share on other sites More sharing options...
