Deathwatch Space Marines - Redemptor Dreadnoughts - Done!

Hello one and all! Another Week, more additions to the Deathwatch force! This time 2 Redemptor Dreadnoughts, one from the Scythes of the Emperor Chapter, and a Space Wolves 'Chaplain' Dreadnought.
Both dreadnoughts are built with the normal plastic kit, with 3D printed parts added, I was keen to add to the Dreadnoughts in the Deathwatch force, but felt I wanted more character to them I've found that in these kits! Both have the options to swing the weapon option as required.
 
I love the Scythes of the Emperor kit- the Scythe, is, well MASSIVE! what you would expect a dreadnought to swing. I've tried to pick out the details in a way that retains the same style as the others in the force- the golds and whites have been painted in the same way as the Marines, and the power 'weapons' have had the same blue tones used to link them togther.

I see the Scythes Dreadnought as a rear gunner, a support for the main units going forward, hence the more stoic pose. 

The Space Wolves 'Chaplain' dreadnought will count as a normal dread ingame,  however I love the chaplain-esk feel to it. I had to show the model in a more dynamic way - charging forward into battle. The colours were used like all others in the force, however I did take time to pick out the gems using the technical citadel paints for jewels over a silver base.

I think the pose of the legs could have been more extreme with the run, however I think that the pose I have achieved reflects the weight of the dreadnought in a good way.

Both finished off nicely with the resin bases. 

I need to apologise for a lack of responses, my computer/antivirus seems to have locked the feature. I have read each one, thank you!

Thanks for looking! LH (10pts)
