Tools are often more important than progress on any single given project as without the tools it is likely that many more projects could in fact simply fail to start......

I got goodies!!! I've just received my long awaited non- heretical diversion... a FW chaplain dreadnought. I really needed to get back in the saddle but I think im a bit dead on the chaos front, so im going to be making this chappy super cool, converted and dynamic. My goal with him is to wet blend, use NMM and OSL techniques to be able to win ( hopefully) A store painting competion
Currently the gallery is mad and its not letting me link... but if you are feeling nice... you can see the dread in my gallery

I've changed the posing and started the up scaling work: He's bigger now!

The base is going to get changed up

now he is taking up proper shape!

as i only ever worked with already built dreads i cant really say how one should pose them when building to get the maximum of dynamic looking ...look^^

probably depends on the kind of base you want to use...

Yeah. I was either thinking a crashed land speeder storm
Or a resin base... I don't know
something dramatic though

well yes... drama should be the right decision for this one...

half a rhino wrecked so that the dread can walk over it to avenge the crew of the rhino?

That would be ideal if I had a rhino

Personally, I don't think FW models need anything dramatic, because afterall they are usually one offs. and being such stand out on their own accord. the normal GW stuff is what I would usually suggest for dramatic bases and such. hence why my nids are heavily converted and based.

hmmm... you have a point there childe...

and a wrecked rhino would be easy made by either getting somebitz from a bitz side or by scratchbuilding...tho that would take up quite some valuable time... maybe a bit too much for just a base decoration...
