Showcase: Post your Dreadnoughts

[Techmarine Harkus]

Here's a few of mine:

 

 

 

 

The most recent addition to my Ultramarines (and presumably also the oldest Dreadnought in my army). Two things to note: 1) At some point I will put some snow flock on to match my other models but that wont be happening soon and 2) Just because Guilliman forgot to put the bit about gun casings being red into the Codex doesn't mean that he didn't want it that way.

 

 

 

 

Ironclad Jerry also a relatively new addition to the family of disappointingly plainly named space marines to become dreadnoughts in my army (Joining the ranks with Joe, John and not forgetting venerable Jim). The oldschool chevron transfer was annoyingly hard to trim and position, and let me down with being somewhat transparent. I wish I'd painted the part white or yellow before applying it. Eventually I'll go over it but not now.

 

 

 

 

Lastly my GK dreadnought who dates back to when psybolts were all the rage. He does have some spare arms somewhere but the mortis autocannons are still his preferred loadout. At least once the FAQ hits he will get some extra attacks even if his guns will probably never be the same again.

Since I just restored one of the first models I ever painted for 40k, I thought I might as well post him here:

Repairs consisted of touching up damaged paint, replacing the decals, switching the company markings to the 4th company and adding the base.

Excellent work, but why is a Blood Angels Dreadnought model used for this conversion? Did the Word Bearers kill the sarcophagus' previous occupant and then claim the chassis as spoils of war? I must also ask what's mounted in place of the Blood Angels Dreadnought's magna-grapple.

Glorious model, but hang on - he was put into stasis when the Legion met their Primarch, and only awakened for the Siege? Worst rude awakening ever.
