Very nice work, Spectral_Entropy - lovely scheme and crisp execution

[Inquisitor Trinity]

I'd like to introduce Contemptor Dreadnought Avonis, formerly of the Steel Confessors.

A few details here, got a scroll for his name, a mechanicus symbol as he's a former techmarine, various cables and bionic esque pieces, the furor shield symbol on his left knee and an inquisition shield on the right knee. He's magnetised for a few options. Lascannons, assault cannons, power fists and cyclone missile launcher.

Also provided a close up of the steel confessors symbol

Please let me know what you think of him! If you want to see more of my deathwatch, including a leviathan dreadnought, click the link in my signature :D

Excellent work. Did Avonis become a Dreadnought while serving in the Deathwatch?

He did indeed. I don't think chapters send dreadnoughts to the deathwatch that i know of

[Cruor Vault]

I've been working on finishing off most of the units in my army that have been victims of frenzied '3-color minimum' painting sessions before GTs.

 

Today these two venerable brothers finally got the respect they deserve.  (well... one of them.  The other hasn't ever seen a tabletop, you guess as to which).

 

 

 

These two I finished last week.

[Quixus]

Now those are some pretty Smurfnoughts.

[Augustus b'Raass]

Lovely dreadies there, Cruor  Vault! 

My guess is the Deredeo hasn't een on the tabletop yet. 

I love the added armour trim on the Leviathan, may I ask how you did those? Do you perhaps have some WIP shots of the Levi unpainted (that you can direct me to, as WIP shots are VERBOTEN on this thread)?

[Deadass]

Indeed, love the UM dreadnoughts! I'm a huge fan of the levi too.

I think that leviathan is Carab Culln, the Red Scorpions' unique dreadnought character, he's quite popular as conversion material.

[sockwithaticket]

They do look really good bar the the lascannon coils on the contemptors, they look unfinished compared to the rest of the models they're attached to.




My latest, an interred Blackshield:

Here is my collection of Venerable Dreads; they are collectively known as the Knights of the Rock.
My three Dark Angels Green MkV Mortis are deployed off world:

We need to see those three as well. 

Because this looks badass!

[appiah4]

That's just amazingly good.  Needs recognition on Warhammer Community or White Dwarf even.

[Interrogator Stobz]

Thanks guys,

:D

@ Cruor Vault: you mind sharing your blue recipe? The tone looks more akin to the old ultramarine blue then the macragge blue which is standard nowadays. Are the edge highlights fenris grey? They look more akin to grey or white then turquoise / teal. 

White looks to be layered upon a light grey (Vallejo ghost grey/wolf grey?) 

Dread looks superclean and nice, would appreciate some insight how you got your colours as I have a FW Leviathan incoming and thus im looking online for references and idea's.

 

Edit Cruor Vault contacted responded to my request of the recipe through PM. Thanks to him my bank account has gone down by 900 euro's so lets see if we can imitate his skills . Thanks for your advice Cruor

After a long break, here is my latest addition. Galatus Dread, soon to be followed by an Achillus and Telemon. Plan on adding a name plate around the base, at some point

Excellent work on the Custodes Dreadnought, Constantine Trajanus Ultor.

[cretacianborn]

 

Had a huuuuge painting block on this guy. He's not perfect, but I'm calling him done!

Excellent work. I like the running pose, which makes the interred Marine look alive as he aggressively charges into battle.

Blood Angels Leviathan. Still have some extra weapons to do for him; a Storm Cannon, a Grav Flux and some Phospex. For now the main set of weapons is done!

That's a gorgeous Leviathan, m0nolith. Escellent work. Love the NMM

That is awesome! The palette is great - really like the darker tones!

Seems worth the wait! The fist is brilliant.

[Augustus b'Raass]

Can we please stop quoting pics to comment on them? It creates an annoying wall of pictures that have already been shown and serves no actual purpose. Just write "@Fratersoandso: that's a cool dread."  or whatever and everyone will also know about which dread you're talking.... :tu:

Sorry. Pet peeve. :)
