Here's my Dreadnought, thought I'd have a bit of fun with this one so I designed and painted it as if it was previously some futuristic construction equipment and then had been modified and weaponised hence the yellow paint job, hazard stripes and weathering. Hope you like . I also have a Primaris Repulsor to do but trying to think of a cool/unique way I could do that so glad of any suggestions

It looks well done. It may be the angle but the chevron/striped panels on the torso - are they white/grey+black lines? It looks...odd...doesn't really fit with the yellow. I think a solid black/white option might work better.
Can't really tell though (it may just be the flash?)

Gotcha. While I don't love that colour combo the rest of it is top-notch. Have you done up all the other weapon options, etc?

Seconded of all of elbows comments. Love the idea and the weathering is looking slick!
The hazard striping lines wash out a bit though, maybe try a red/white/grey or a red/black depending on which is your favourite tone. The red would pop with the yellow and really split it up.
In any case you're a far better painter than I am and you nailed it, nice work
