Knightsword's WIP Thread - Knight pattern Dreadnought page 10

Your conversions are stunning, as always. The new new Dreadnoought is ace - the reasonable part of me tells me that it's a bit too much but hey, it's 40k!

 

But the JP Chaplain is something else. Man, I love and I'd love to steal your idea but it seems like a lot of work.

By all means steal the ideas, I'm thrilled if anything I make inspires others. The JP Chaplain was a lot of work, but only because the base AoS model came already assembled. If he'd been on the sprue then it would have been a lot easier  I do regret using the Terminator Chaplain chestplate rather than a normal one now but hey ho.

 

I've got some photos of the Dread with the shield, but didn't realise his damn finger had somehow come off mid shooting. I think I've now managed to fix the finger placement holding the sword and make it look less deinty (last photo).

Amazing dread, but I can't stop seeing The Emperor in this model

Added a heraldic beast so that he matches the not-Bjorn and count-as Murderfang. I'm running out of easy to sculpt animal heads. Wish I had decided to add a fur texture at the time though.
