If I had the money I'd do it in a heart beat. Believe me, If I want any commission work done, you are my first choice, because these are stunning.

Apart from the horrible model of that last dreadnought, i always dig everything you do

And don't get me wrong the paintjob is ok, its just the model that looks bad to me.

Life is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless and perfunctory gift nobody ever asked for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So you're stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down because there's nothing left to drink. Sure once in a while there's a peanut butter cup or a English toffee, but they're gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits of hardened jelly and teeth shattering nuts. If you're desperate enough to eat those all you've got left is a. An empty box, filled with useless brown paper wrappers.

yea I really wanted to use smaller plasma guns and have them mounted under the arms

but this is how the cust envisaged it so that's how it has to be :-)

apart from the BIG guns I think the rest of the dread worked out ok????

Nice!

And yes! It looks cool, just not really digging the weapons and stuff, it makes no sense (to me anyway, rockets ok, guns ok, but an automated/mechanized flail?).

Personally i just like the models (and paints are for me anyway, a bonus). I couldn't get myself to work on a model i don't really like, kudos to you

I like the dread. Not really the cannons, but the flail is great. Great job again Dave.

I'm with IS, the flail and pose are great. Clever use of the doer as a shield. Not sure on the sensor coming out of his hand, seems like it would make him less punchy.

Is the pred missing the battery on the turret?

Inside your mind, corrupting the pathways

Some great painting here

I have the CAR and if it makes you feel any better they sent me two of the same piece (the external part for one side of the "arm" compartment) and it took them ages to send out the correct bit
