hello world, I found an old SM plastic dreads (I hate this mini is very very ugly :P ) then I use the arm autocannon to modify a rinho, whith the plastic miniature I cut the middle leg section and add an arm with a rifle( it's very simple arm plasticard maded) you can cut the body to modificate the model and we will have a battle suite(something like this)

enjoy it!

The statistics are equal than a standard dread but only have a lasscannon ( you can add a  mounted grenade launcher) or a twin bolter arm.

Cool looking, but for some reason I first thought they were pre heresy World Eater dreads :p

Not bad looking at all. I like the overall effect.

Do you happen to have pictures of "pre-painted"?

I would like to see how you did the Rifle/arm.

I'm with Primarch; nice color scheme! I must say, you do excellent work. I enjoy seeing others doing conversions, since I have neither the time nor the skill to do them.  :laugh:

I think they're cool, as they have been used by Sabretooth games in their 'Horus Heresy' game, and by Forgeworld, to represent Heresy era/venerable dreadnoughts.

I've been lucky to get hold of a couple in recent months and have used them as dreadnoughts for my Iron Hands SM army.

Aside from that, I thought these did look quite cool!
:cool:

Oh that is great. I love this kind of thing. Easy to follow the path and the finished mini looks wonderful!
