Come on everyone, when you first saw the Dreadknight your heads must be going wild with the crazy ideas to loot it.

This was bound to happen.




Spot the bitz!

Also any ideas to further Orkify the Dreadknight or 'Deffknight' I called it, please let me know.

Add more riveted ona rmour plates, a grot, and pointless gunz.

Is good but the pose looks very spotty dog from the Woodentops.
If the right leg goes back then the right shoulder and arm swing forward.
The arm and leg on one side usually work in the opposite direction.

Otherwise the DK looks better in the clutches of an Ork imho and a super job done!

Hope there is going to be a marine or something about to be booted between the goalposts

Seamless use of bits, there. In fact, the whole conversion is rather subtle, especially for an ork-looted machine. It actually looks like it was orky from the get-go, if a bit more sleek and streamlined than the average walker. I say use it as a mega-dread, 100%!

That looks pretty mad. Some more gunz are definitely needed because you can never have too much dakka.
The dreadknight could also be used a cool convert for Ghazghkull.

I agree he kind of looks like a kid in his highchair I would have used Stormboyz legs/body and maybe a Loota harness. Or maybe make a platform for him to stand on that's welded into its body?

And is it just me but does the Dreadknight look better when it's converted for every other army then when it does when used normally with the GK?
