verpine Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Ahahaha! That's wonderful! An LED smiley face!!! I wish my dread had one of those, because dread's don't really have much personality, you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think? http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo171/loken86_2008/iron%20hands%202nd%20chapter/th_legsandbase.jpg Ok i have blue-tac the parts together to see the overall look of the dread so far. http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo171/loken86_2008/iron%20hands%202nd%20chapter/th_comparisem.jpg http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo171/loken86_2008/iron%20hands%202nd%20chapter/th_rearview.jpg http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo171/loken86_2008/iron%20hands%202nd%20chapter/th_sideview-1.jpg http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo171/loken86_2008/iron%20hands%202nd%20chapter/th_thepose.jpg Just wondering has anyone done a tutorial for scratch building dread feet that looks like the forge world feet???

cathar the great Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Just wondering has anyone done a tutorial for scratch building dread feet that looks like the forge world feet???Thanks for looking C+C WELCOMED You could do it the same way as the humanized hand. Carefully cut the four toes off and rearrange them to resemble the Forgeworld dreads. I did that with a robot construct of mine. Linky-Dink You can see it on its rear feet (pictures don't show it too well but maybe you can see it ^^) The right arm (what's it gonna be?) looks a bit too big and makes the whole thing a bit heavy to the side. Also I'm not too sure about the Defiler head on the Sarcophagus. I've always thought that it is a tad too wide for a Dread. But then again, I am a fan of dreads with small heads ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loken86 Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 *UPDATE 9/10/09 been a little busy of late with real world stuff but heres a little progress update started to paint the dreads base the bike will be painted up in night lords colours as this is the scheme of my chaos army. feet have been altered now kinda looks like the forge world one(KINDA) thanks to cathar again also lights are working great i have even add a chin mounted search light. also adjusted dreads pose so he doesnt look like he is gonna topple over the hand now has 5 fingers instead of 4 and will have a under slung heavy flamer other weapons will be magnetized so i can change them about per game. c+c welcomed http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo171/loken86_2008/iron%20hands%202nd%20chapter/th_searchlightson.jpg http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo171/loken86_2008/iron%20hands%202nd%20chapter/th_vendreadonbase.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montuhotep Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Looking impressive indeed - the LED's are a nice touch and 3 Heavy Bolters? No wonder the thing needs the ammo belt from Hell! You say you did this on an AoBR Dread? If so, where did you cut to reposition the body and legs? Mine is so horribly static.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Remiel Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 From where did you get the ammo belt? I have been wanting something like that for my conversions, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loken86 Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 Commander Remiel Posted Jan 30 2010, 11:05 PM From where did you get the ammo belt? i took the ammo belts from a cheap army toy set that cost a £1 not sure whats it called though ;) Paladin7221 Posted Jan 30 2010, 10:54 PM Looking impressive indeed - the LED's are a nice touch and 3 Heavy Bolters? No wonder the thing needs the ammo belt from Hell! You say you did this on an AoBR Dread? If so, where did you cut to reposition the body and legs? Mine is so horribly static.... lol it has a twin-linked HB the dragon headed barrel next to it is where the laser pointer is. As for losing the static pose for the waist section i cut just as the round waist section joins to the dreads main body the legs are easy to reposition firstly cut of the leg at the circle end not waist then chop off the legs from the bottom of the round hip. you can now reposition the hips and leg as you like. il get some wip shots of the legs up asap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
