Bling Dreadnought, Part 11

Did some cabling detail tonight, still need those little linkages between all the belt segments like on a heavy bolter ammo belt. Those will take me hours, ah well I have a weekend Rolling Eyes











Arithorn painting the beasty has been on my mind. I was very inspired by that awesome large scale Ultramarine on CMON by Giganticdark but I doubt I'd go that faded or weathered but will try his way of doing the banner to look like it's embroidered. As for the rest of him I've been searching the web for ideas, the recent gold place by Anna Machowska is a daunting example to look at, but it's so not my style of painting so trying to think what ideas from it I can incorporate.

Some new conversions


Converted these guys just so they wouldn't look the same as the stock one since I have 3 of them.




made a swivel gun for the brief time my pirates visited Mordheim. (GW)


More civies for the town by Reaper and one by Megaminis that needed to be made taller. She was more a 25mm than a 28mm but I find that pretty much all the difference in old minis compared to new is the hunch of the neck and in the height of the legs.

Also some angry pygmy natives in the back from Eureka which I was quickly painting with GW washes.
