For those not in the know, Dreadtober is an annual event held over the month of October where hobbyists pledge to do a dreadnought-sized model from the to-do pile and get it finished, starting 1st Oct and hopefully completing 31st Oct (Halloween/All Hallows Eve) with lots of progress shots and encouragement along the way :) and I like to partake in Dreadtober, and have done for a few years, a veteran of now 10yrs with a sum of six Dreads, two Imperial Knights, two Armiger Knights and a Necron Construct, now joined with this larger Construct!
This week I have started the painting progress in ernest, painting the leg greaves first and working my way up. I had a spare Canoptek Reanimator which I chopped up for parts, using the lower legs as stabilisers akin to the T'au Stormsurge.
I started with some gauss power cables in red energy and some gold parts for a splash of colour.Kill Team terrain bits were used to adorn the base and add interest.
More Canoptek Reanimator parts, mounted either side of the head with counts-as 'Heavy Stubbers' and a shoulder mounted ray-gun thingy, more for detail and cover the fact that this is a really big Warrior... the Canoptek Reanimator shoulder guards were also used to give more curved 'Knight' shoulders, and break up the Warrior sihoulette.
Lots of edge highlighting for the blue parts, joyous...
Getting good progress done now, I will be able to complete this for my Dreadtober pledge in time!
Cheers, Siph
