Showcase: Post your Dreadnoughts

[ST.Lazarus]

[Ezr91aeL]

My very first dreadnought and my very first Forge World kit. I know, arms could have a better pose.

@ Ezr91ael: That's a beautiful Custodian Dreadnought you have there! Lovely work on the white/cream paintjob! :)

 

Here's my latest contribution, a venerable FW World Eaters Dreadnought -- those brillianr traitor legion Dreads are now sadly OOP. but fellow hobbyist Augustus b'Raass was awesome enough to let me have this guy. The right arm is a bit of a kitbash using plastic parts:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Argus the Brazen

XII Legion, 4th assault company

 

 

 

 

 

More pictures can be found in my WIP thread, as usual.

I'm sad too that the Chaos Dreddy are gone. I mean I like the Hellbrute, but I loved the mechanical ones too. Anyway your one is lovely expecially that twin lascannon: the khornite shield and the chain bayonette makes the difference between a common model and a classy one. Also loved the base: simple, but incredibly believable.

Amazing job with the decals here, there's no shine of them and you can't see the seam line.

Micro Sol and matt varnish do amazing work lol

This guy's my favorite among your Doom Eagles Dreadnoughts. The chest-mounted missile launcher is so Genesis Climber MOSPEADA/Robotech: The New Generation.

He was a rescue of a forgeworld red scorpions dread that was trashed badly. I like the idea of missiles firing during a charge to explode all around and cause chaos.

These guys have been sitting on my shelf for far too long without paint.  The Big FaQ got me inspired to paint again and I finished off these Ironclads and Relic Contemptor Torsos.

C&C is more than welcome.

Hehe it's almost like dreads are one of my favorite 40K units/models or something

 

Is it surprising I am also a khador player?

[point_Zer0]

Here's one of mine comtemptors. Some minor details are left, but i'm too lazy to finish them. So i'll call it ready. For now.
It is fully magnetised and posable.

My first Redemptor Dreadnought :D

[Ciler]

Very clean, good job on the decals.

[Chewbacacabra]

So this is many years old. One of my first ever conversions.

The green stuff additions and the gold trimmings are well done. Excellent work.

[Vykes]

Well it's not exactly glorious or anything, but I did work up a pair of leggy-nauts for my Luna Wolves. Contemptors are still more fun but game wise, might as well have some boxnaught weapon platforms to support the 16th on the drop (on the cheap compared to the cost of a Contemptor and its points pricey dedicated drop pods).

[Quixus]

Looking great, would you mind doing a tutorial on the legs? Thanks in advance.

[Bjorn Firewalker]

The longer legs certainly make your Dreadnoughts look better proportioned, and aesthetically superior as a direct result. What are the extended thighs made of?

[Vykes]

I'd love to Quixus (Just like I'd love to do more of these), buuuut the exact recipe there requires extra pistons from either a Warhound or the inner door pistons of a Mastodon... I can't quite recall but it's pretty ridiculous :P 

 

And thanks Quixus, Bjorn, mates!  Yeah, they're a little odd as far as kitbashes go, pretty simple buuuut they're the pistons from one of those kits, it's a straight cut with just grinding the tube to fit the existing legs which were bisected with a razorsaw.  The upper thigh plates that cover them are the cowling from a knights battle cannon and the face is one of the lower weapon assembly hatch things from the thermal cannon if I'm not mistaken.

Forgot to post this here but did this boi up:

soooo shiny....*blink*....I see a thunderhawk wing

I'm not saying Ive been procrastinating on getting it done.

 

but.

 

I have.

[Brother Desultor]

It's been a long time since I've completed, never mind posted a model. I've been distracted with so many projects coming and going and have not been able to settle on one until now.

 

So here is the first in what I hope will be a regular series of my Void Tridents project - a Redemptor dreadnought.

 

 

 

I'm also still experimenting with a light box and smartphone so hopefully future pictures will improve.

Hi everybody

 

I present you my dreadnought of nurgle, finished since a good moment but never posted.
