Nrthstar Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 On the topic of Dreadnoughts, how does the new kit play out? Can I build the arms for both a ven shield/axe and murderfangs?

Reichfaust Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 On the topic of Dreadnoughts, how does the new kit play out? Can I build the arms for both a ven shield/axe and murderfangs? Sadly the kit contains only two close combat arms, and a single ranged weapon arm. I am working on magnetising mine so the murderclaws & axe/shield can be swapped out at will.

Jaarl Stormfang Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Absolutely fantastic Contemptor Thunder_god. That's exactly the paint scheme I love to see on Space Wolves, a non-blue grey, golds, reds and blacks, no bright yellows. What grey is it? Very nicely painted.

Thunder_god Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Absolutely fantastic Contemptor Thunder_god. That's exactly the paint scheme I love to see on Space Wolves, a non-blue grey, golds, reds and blacks, no bright yellows. What grey is it? Very nicely painted. Thank you. It's Adeptus Battle Grey with a misting of Vallejo Air Pale Blue Grey. The overall dk grey is fine for vehicles, but makes the marines look too dark to me. My wolves are the pale blue grey with several dark blue/brown filters applied to make them the shade I want. It's not perfect, but it looks good to me.

tylerw Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I am the other side - I like my SW to be verging on ultrasmurf in terms of packing blue, but I still really like what you've done with that. Is it partially/all FW, or how did you do that torso otherwise?

He's still my favorite! That's stunning sir. I find sometimes adding bits to models can be overdone or too much is added but between the fantastic paint job and the proper placement of said bits - wow, looks great!

Iacton Qruze Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Oh dear Russ, where is that claw from please? It's a kitbash. the talons are from the original Bjorn model, attached to embellished dread fingers. the wrist plate is plasticard and microbeads for the studs. the rest of the hand is made from a combination of a dreadnought fist and a FW seismic hammer arm.

BrotherRanik Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 My "Murderfang" which I magnetized so he can also be Bjorn. Not a fan of the traditional "crazy" Murderfang look so I just went with a Bjorn who puts on twin claws when he feels more assaulty than normal. ;) The left claws aren't painted yet because I'm ordering another set of Bjorn's claws to swap them out with like I did on the right arm. http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/ee503/scurtisjr/photo41.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292719-the-dreadnoughts-thread/page/3/#findComment-3797777 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tylerw Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Just picked this up on ebay for under $20 - I plan to strip and redo the ol feller. http://i.imgur.com/WgIwV7S.jpg http://i.imgur.com/1iGkqzN.jpg He cleaned up decently: http://i.imgur.com/uVHDmUg.jpg http://i.imgur.com/H2FjTNR.jpg http://i.imgur.com/4RqVnQJ.jpg I'd like to get him just a little sharper looking, but he's playable now at least.

Idun Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Hi guys!! just recently joined the forum! I recently completed a Dreadnought which i converted from some random bits, some greenstuff and what not. Was given to me by a friend that wasn't using him so i thought i would make something out of it! His name is Brynjar (means he who fights in armour or something along those lines!) let me know what you guys think!! oh yeah, lots of great stuff here!! ;D Cheers!

Nova_chron Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 So I don't know if anyone has posted this tidbit but the ranged weapons in our new dread kit fit closely enough that glue is not needed and neither are magnets... I was very happy to find this and once bjorn is assembled I will post pics.

Valerian Posted September 12, 2014 Author Share Posted September 12, 2014 Yeah, the only thing I don't love about him is the use of an actual Head on the Dreadnought, vice the use of a Sarcophagus, or a Simulcra. Other than that, he's perfect. V Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292719-the-dreadnoughts-thread/page/3/#findComment-3807437 Share on other sites More sharing options...
