Nice Tipios! Congrats! I'm only allowed to get one if it can "hide" all my "crap"... like a roll top desk or a cabinet or something. Oh, and it has to look nice too.... I'm still using the table.

**inmygravenimage**

Good job! I use an edwardian writing bureau; now the boss complains it's a waste *shrug*

**monkeyh**

Looking good - the legs and the workstation! Still the kitchen table for me you lucky devil!

**Limbo**

Can't wait to see the Khorne dread painted up, it already looks really cool.
If you're thinking of making a Word Bearers dread, I agree Pluxtheduck, it needs a Daemonic Crozius, and perhaps the heresy era legion mark?

Sometimes I forget how lucky I am to have an extra room plus the attic just for my hobby stuff. Maybe my fiancé isn't evil incarnated...

Baiyuan - You've got your own games room? No fair!

**tipios**

@rsjake - This desk is second hand, and was very cheap, my wife wants table so she gave in and bought this

@graven - We will see how long it last, before the boss of this house changes mind

@monkeyh - I have got lucky with the workstation, once I sort through everything, it will make building stuff much easier!

@limbo - Will have to see how I will make a Crozius

@baiyuan - I notice you say fiancé, you just wait until after the special day

**Emperors_Champion**

Always good to have your own personally space!

Liking the leg. Will your defiler be 2 legged or more? 4 legs at that height would be awesome!

**tipios**

It's gona be 2 legs, 4 would be wicked but I've already cut up the body

Centaur Defiler?!

**Hyenajoe**

So, the War for the domination of the dinner table ended for you? This only means one thing: you'd better show us the khorne dread fully painted before Christmas!!!

**tipios**

@saintspirit - That will have to be another project

@joe - HA, I no longer have the "I have no room" excuse to start painting

**tipios**

Things done this morning, apart from sorting out workstation.
Green stuffed gaps in khorne dread arms, and final touches to IW left arm. Iw just need legs and left arm primed, then paint. Khorne, nearly ready for prime, but have forgot about his legs, I need to sort out leg plates.

Deflier has 2 legs now

**Moltar**

What?! Defiler 2 looks sick! Awesome stuff, mate.

**Matt.Kingsley**

Which head will you use?

**inmygravenimage**

That's - well, unholy, for want of a better word

I love it, it's gonna be epic (small 'e').

**tipios**

@moltar - thanks matey

@matt - I've ordered the manticore head, from the warhammer lord on manticore model.

**inmygravenimage**

Ah was just about to tell you that bitsandkits (poxonthem) have them back in stock but I think you beat me to the punch.

**tipios**

Yeah got that email too

but they don't do the main head that I want on it's own. I orded on ebay from france last week, thanks to hyenajoe

Thanks graven, sorry missed this post!!!

**Matt.Kingsley**

Good Choice!

**GiraffeX**

That defiler is looking excellent so far tipios, nice to see you get your own work station as well.

**tipios**

Thaks GiraffeX!

Wow I decided to do some painting today!!

Now I need to do glowing plasma effects, and glowing eyes

**inmygravenimage**

Awesome. That's one spicy meatball.

**1-i**

Soon to be a radioactive glowing spicy meatball.

Are you planning to use lighter colors for the base to help bring out the dingy dark of the dread?

**Squigsquasher**

Awesome. I'm impressed.

May I suggest giving the upright Khorne Defiler a giant hellblade?

**tipios**

@graven - Glad you like my cooking

@1-i - Any colour suggestions? my last base was just dry brushed codex grey with black wash.

@Squigsquasher - Thanks, and if you mean giant circular saw, then yes

but how to make it, I have no idea yet!!

**RSJake**

Awesome, awesome, oh and Awesome! Great work on the IW Dread! And the Defiler looks Sick so far!

**1-i**

I cant really think of any better idea than the grey. It worked so well for so many other dread bases.

This are incredible pair of legs. I was thinking about something similar for my SM Venerable Dreadnought and yours conversion is very inspirational.

How about defacing a Nemesis Great Sword from an NDK? I'll chum you one if you need.
