Show off your best dreadnought! I want to see some good "loyalist-> Traitor" dreanoughts, as I've been looking for a good way to make a chaos dreadnought from the loyalist kits.

My dreadnought says....hi!

booo.

Here are my 2 Loyalist Chapter Dreads.. (no CSM at the moment, so, just these guys..

Get of Freki (variant Space Wolves)



and the Omega Marines (easy/sleazy anti-Ultramarines.. lol)

Moving this to the Modelling section...

Coolz my ork drednaughts.

Here's my Blood Angels Dreadnought: It's magnetised so you can swap the fist, Lascannons and front plate to change it into a Furiso Librarian

Still a WiP at the moment, which explains the unpainted parts.

i present P. Zed the Tread-Dread. venerable combatant of my athiest marines. (so traitor strictly speaking)



not the best picture quality i know but all i have to take pics is a digital camcorder.

GIVE US THE PICS. That looks great!

Also, to the blood angels dread guy: Have any regrets about using the sanguinary wings? Looks great though!

Thanks, regarding the Sanguinary wings:- Whoever designed the Sanguinary Guard wings just deserves a kick in the ass, as essentially if you use some of the more ornate shoulder pads, such as the ones with the ridges or the ones with the extensive feather design, then depending on the angle of the arm it may be impossible to attach the wings to the body. Same thing goes if you fix the arms in certain poses. So as a result of that I had 2 sets which I couldn't attach to the guard, so I used a set on the Force Weapon for the Dread.

Ah. I understand. I had that problem with my carnifex. I forgot to put on the carapace piece before the arms, then I couldn't get it on later, so I had to paint a carapace on him! It looks good!

I submit Lunchbox

Wall of picks
Loyalist Dreads









I have more but I would need to dig them out.

now theres an Idea. I think I might just steal that from you.

Here is my conversion Dreadnought.. I've already heard how it looks like an zoid on these forums.. At least every time I pull it out at my Local store everyone comes over and say cool...
BTW its an Ironclad with all the options..I have an base still working(it is an light switch plate with an green stuffed Salamander icon raised up on it)

Loakii, very unique, and very cool!

My AoBR dread





Brother Lamarck (not painted yet, this is going to be fun)

Well if you're looking for a really easy Chaos Dread from a Loyalist one, here's one I did a while ago. Really quick, really easy, wish I had done a better job on it...



The Head is the non-Ornate head from the WFB Tomb Kings Bone Giant, and the back spikes are from the Terminator Sprue. I was trying a subtle stippling effect for painting.
As for a Dread I've spend a little more time on, here's a WIP one for my friend's half of our Team army for BOLScon:



I have a second one to do too...ugh...
Granesh

Here's my pride: the Rending Terror



I have an old thread in this section showing every step of its construction.

I can only link to an image of a dread I saw in another thread....

(any link to the thread would be much appreciated)

OK, I'm in !

Ultramarine Dreads "Argus" & "Tarus" -



and an as-yet un-named Ice Panthers Dread -


All AoBR (rather obviously ) dreads, though with a couple of minor weapon re-fits.

Sorry, no Traitor scum in my arsenal

Heres mine. I still need to finish building and painting the damn thing. Oh well, he needs to kill something before I get the motivation to

I like the idea king. needs more orky bits, but it should look fantastic when its done. If it were me, i'd be tempted to remove the lens and put a grot inside. maybe find a clear piece of plastic and cut it to the largest concentric ring. looks kind of like a bathysphere.

I thought that too, but the creepy thing is, the lens catches light and literally has an eerie red glow to it. It actually kindda creeps out one of the members in my group

I just wouldnt be a proper host if I took that away from him. But the bitch part is, Ive played it about 4 times now, and its literally done nothing but take bullets and assplode Damn dred.

Dread from the 57th EVAK Squad

The one lord shag painted Is cool

This is a looted Ork Dreadnought with it's own custom rules that can be found at http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/281611.page
