HLVW Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 Update on the dread, I would say he is sitting around 60% done, still need to do the battle damage, highlights, the plasma cannon, and touch up the finer points such as the crusade badges. Also need to work on the lights a bit then its off to the pred and rhino.http://i.imgur.com/9R6NAQ3.jpg?1Hopefully I got all the crusade badges right. Honda I kind of guessed that yours was the hour glass, could you confirm that for me? Edit: I forgot to mention before as your looking at him, Mytimeprez is bottom left, Marshall Mattias is top left, Honda is Bottom Right, Andhil bottom right and Marshal Roujakis is the bottom left leg.

greggles Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I ran out of likes. Just wanted to say he looks fantastic. Always loved that dread from FW. I keep hoping they make a contemptor version for black templars...but I don't think we will ever get one due to the timeline... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think that It would have potential seeing as imperial armour vol 2 has that relic sicaran painted up with fluff for the templar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andhil Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 It's so cool there's so many different Crusade badges in this forum. All so alike, yet so different. (but in my totally unbiased opinion, mine's the coolest.) I too am honored to see my badge on such an amazing model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal_Roujakis Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 ooohhh... mine's there too! Thanks HLVW! I'll try to keep up with the ZEAL deserving of such honor. Nicely painted Dread btw, can't wait to see what you plan to do with the banner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HLVW Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 Update time, the dread is now finished and Brother Crichton walks again.http://i.imgur.com/E0FnDgl.jpg?1http://i.imgur.com/STca1iA.jpg?1@ Marshal Roujakis - I don't think I will be going to do the banner for him. I might save it for a LRC turned into a shrine as was suggested.Got a descent amount done to the Pred and Rhino, need some weathering, and to do the finer points but just about finished vow 1, hopefully by tomorrow night.http://i.imgur.com/dDveZEz.jpg?1http://i.imgur.com/mHvPYfW.jpg?1Any C&C would be great.

Andhil Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 A truly amazing Dreadnought! A paint job worthy of a fallen Veteran of the Chapter! Well done! Great progress on the Rhino and Pred too! Is that a shield icon I spy, just above the Pred's Autocannon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HLVW Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 Thanks for all the comments, they absolutely help keep me painting, mind you I think I need to speed up with all these first vows getting finished. @Rienhard - absolutely. I think there are 4 or 5 more shields free that I just did random designs on. @Andhil - certainly is, I'm trying to figure out where I want more of the eched brass to go. Maybe on the spartan. Hope to get a bunch more done tonight hopefully finish these up and move on to vow 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acebaur Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 looks excellent! I wasn't always the biggest fan of that model(based purely on the FW pics) but seeing your's I really like it. I may have to get me one someday.(even though I have 4 dreas already :lol:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HLVW Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Managed to get my first vow finished tonight.http://i.imgur.com/vm6uc7m.jpg?2Here is one of my favorite parts:Suffer not the unlean to live vowhttp://i.imgur.com/qw2Yzy8.jpg?2Not the neatest bit of writing but it will work, plan is once I get 4 more Rhinos, is to put each of the vows from the old BT codex onto the cross.Next vow should be up soon, Have some Van Vets and some speeders to do, just tallying the points now.HLVW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mytimeprez Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Looks great brother, I really like the idea of having the old vows written out on the vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HLVW Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Thank you brother, I rather enjoy the old vows and was sad to see that they were not put into the new dex. Vow 2 up and running, 2x land speeder w/ heavy bolters and 10x vanguard sword brethren.http://i.imgur.com/k3kWEUN.jpg?1http://i.imgur.com/RY7afGA.jpg?1 Just trying to decide on tabard colour, stick with the red so they are the same as the other SB or change it up? any suggestions?

Brother Christopher Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Firstly, you finished units from the first vow are amazing. Secondly, these SB appear to be even more amazing. When it comes to tabards, I can't help you, because I'll say: 45% paint them red, to maintain consistency; 55% paint them using "standard" tabard colours, e.i. "bone colour".

ChoooChoooTemplar Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Love the Dread, awesome paint job! Think FW should thank you for boosting sales of the model, definitely going to get one on my next order! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
