Hi, here are some pics of my finished kitbashed/scratchbuilt Sonic Dreadnought:





What do you think?

Is it a rule that men are not allowed to like pink?
Well i'm a rule breaker!

Gotta agree there....that is mighty purdy!!!

Love the blood talons colours very well done the paint skeme is great!

The the tone of that pink, looks fantastic!

Nicely done. Hate the pink, aesthetically, but it fits, so no real complaints, there. What does disappoint me about the color, though, is that the beautiful scrollwork is all but invisible. Hopefully it's just getting washed out in the photos, because it's a really nice touch, if you don't have to strain to see it.

I really like the scrollwork on the flat areas.

Very nice work overall, I would have gone a little darker on the pink personally... maybe a pastel light purple shade, but that's just my spin on the Emperors Children's color scheme. The scrollwork is superb, was that a stencil or freehand?

Needs moar leopardprint!

Thank you guys!

I'm glad you like it, even with this excessive colour scheme
Pink is a difficult colour to work with and I'm not used to it. In fact, my attempts at painting it properly using washes and layers ended in such a dirty mess that I had to find a trick to make this failure less visible, and that's how I came to paint the lighter pink pattern on it.

Freehand.

looks like pink is the way forward, nice conversion.

Pleade post or pm me the exact recipe you used to obtain that pink effect. Its perfect man.

Epic, though it hurts my eyes. Pink dreds FTW

Great paint job, nice touch with the scroll work as well.
