Originally scheduled to be 2 separate conversions, these two kits got smashed together and brought to life as a Rip Dread, or Dread Tide, or whatever you think it should be called
[Thumb - 1.jpg]
Powerplant and exhaust.

[Thumb - 2.jpg]
Space Marine Dreadnought torso with all the missiles I had to spare. The positioning of the exhausts in a vaguely angelic spread was a happy accident.

[Thumb - 3.jpg]
Scratch built and ready to buzzkill!

[Thumb - 4.jpg]
Better look at the melee arm.

[Thumb - 5.jpg]
The pilot and control sticks.

[Thumb - 6.jpg]
Legs are on! But lookin' skinny and weak. Time to armour up!

[Thumb - 7.jpg]
Leg armour, spikes and smoke lauchers.

[Thumb - 8.jpg]
Primed and ready for paint.

[Thumb - 9.jpg]
Metallic black basecoat and some basic red detailing. Heaps left to do

[Thumb - 10.jpg]
base coat for the desert camo that will adorn the Tau parts. To be continued

Looking great so far! Do you intend to use this big guy in game? If so, what as?

TheEyeOfNight- I swear, this thread is 70% smack talk, 20% RP organization, and 10% butt jokes
TheEyeOfNight- "Ordo Xenos reports that the Necrons have attained democracy, kamikaze tendencies, and nuclear fission. It's all tits up, sir."
Space Marine flyers are shaped for the greatest possible air resistance so that the air may never defeat the SPACE MARINES!
Sternguard though, those guys are all about kicking ass. They'd chew bubble gum as well, but bubble gum is heretical. Only tau chew gum

I don't play very much, I've had about 10 games in my whole life! I like to build and write, the lore and fluff of 40k is really interesting to me. But the guys I play with are really tolerant of my builds, mostly because I'm insane and my only strategy is full frontal assault. So I can say: 'Counts As' Deff Dread with 3 rokkit launchas, 3 big shootas and a mega choppa/killsaw, or something like that and they'll let me run it.
