At first i bought the new Ven dred box because my iron clad didnt have any arms.
I was satisfied. But then i saw bunch of left over bits and thought i can just glue them randomly
on my other dreads. AOBR dred have all the same look so i decide to make it look different.

I think it turned out decent and cheap!

*PS wow i drilled out the assault cannon barrels :3

Looks good! I like it, especially considering that I plan to field my AoBR Dreadnought as a Ven Dread from time to time and just justify this with his rather shiny golden paintjob.

Good job. The AOBR Dreadnought is highly useful. I turned one into an Ironclad using the extra parts you get in an Ironclad kit.

Lol, good stuff, didn't think to post this myself. I bought the Ironclad kit and used the extra bits like the launchers and extra pair of arms to make my AOBR dread a second Iron Clad. Waste not want not!

There isnt really anything done worthy of a tutorial o_o

basically... i snipped off all the raised surfaces on the 2 chest plates/
Attach the venerable armor on, i tried placing it in a way that it doesnt stick out
in noticeable spots ( because the size isnt 100% the same )

For the inevitable spots that do stick out i go back with xacto knife and trim them down
and finish it off with a file to make it smooth.
