GreyDeath Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Ok so you read the title and say Tactical Dreadnought. Cool so a smaller version of a Dreadnought. Sweet thats what I want. And then you get the Termies and well there not like that. So I started making mine to be an actual Tactical Dreadnought Suit. Here is what I have so far. What do you think? Front http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL169/1054762/8763629/142083901.jpg side http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL169/1054762/8763629/142083903.jpg Back http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL169/1054762/8763629/142083904.jpg And I am going a little Salamanders I guess with the Flamer and Melta? I just liked them and wanted them. I still have alot to do but wanted to post him as I am calling it a night. I also noticed his shoulders and arms are a little high for his head. So I lowered them just after this photo. Thanks. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blamb Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 nice work. It would probably look better with a close combat weapon 9possibly built in like a dready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyDeath Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 Thanks I will see tomorrow and take off the flamer and do a power claw in small scale instead. I might be able to do something.. might. Thanks for the input and help. Appreciate that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YaZoR Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Strange, but I like it. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Hyperion Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 impressive, but im curious as to where his arms go. his shoulders cant be that broad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyDeath Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 I would believe his arms go into the boxes on the side of him where he controls the weapons etc. Part of the reason I lowered the arms and boxes next to him. I will work on sanding and feeling gaps etc tomorrow. And the ideas of the power arm and a sword just came to mind. So I will see what I come up with after some sleep. Thanks.

Luku Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Now thats just scary.. Seems just a bit too wide IMHO :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAD COMMANDO Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 impressive, but im curious as to where his arms go. his shoulders cant be that broad. What arms. look at his face cant you see he is crying out in pain :) Love the suit. though i wouldnt say im going to replace termie's with a thing along those lines.

ZAChos Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Give them loincloths so they don't look too top heavy. I also would decrease the width of the boxes slightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RADU LYKAN Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Can you imagine the look on a tau's face when a squad of those teleport in next to him :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubal Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I would believe his arms go into the boxes on the side of him where he controls the weapons etc.I'd say that since he's a proper dreadnought the armour should be bionic :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krzywy Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 kinda reminds me of Ghazkull :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgilat Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 impressive, but im curious as to where his arms go. his shoulders cant be that broad. Well, considering that most terminator clad marines have their shoulders positioned roughly where most people have ears... Let's just say he's genetically engineered and call it a day? [Edit] Either that or they're all hunchbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyDeath Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 Thanks guys. And if your looking then you have probable seen the new photos posted up already. I have changed the Weapons to be more Terminator. So he know has an Assault Cannon and a Chain Sword... I moved the boxes next to him so his arms can fit in there better. And still adding details etc. I am boxing in the armor on the leg and will have some new photos when I am happy with him and have him primered up ready to show. Thanks for all the input. :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mesmile Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I like the idea though I think the assault cannon is Way to Big. Also maybe you could cover up the torso a bit so it don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazal Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 That's just odd looking, but I like it. for some reason it reminds of those short little guys we're not allowed to mention :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obliterator Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Looks like some end-of-level baddy from a computer game. Heck, I like it :D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Gluttious Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 You know, I am not sure if I'd use it as a SM troop, that would make one awesome looking Obliterator The size and mass of it would make a great one I think. Humble opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venerable Jazzman Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I really like it: my one suggestion would be swap the ammo hopper on his back and put it straight onto the back of the ass-can arm, drop the existing sticky-out ammo-box. Don't know what you'd put on his back though, either the existing Termi piece, or maybe a big rocket launcher for a cyclone..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insaniak Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Nice work! The hopper on his back seems a little uneccessary though... I'd swap it for a mini version of the Dreadnought power pack. And his legs look like they could use a little beefing up and some enhanced hydraulics. Excellent idea though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Hyperion Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 excellent, the lowered shoulder blocks make the design look imminently more plausible. nice work. i look foward to seeing it painted. good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grand master jack Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Only GreyDeath would do this :jaw: But I :) it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druss the legend Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Fantastic!!!! The Torso does need befeing upa bit though I think, although I think in the ened here you might end up with a scratch built dreadnaught if you do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
