I think the top ones are chopped off Shokk Attack guns (brilliant!), but the bottom one I can't place.

The grey plastic pieces on the back, where did they come from?


The upper is cut from plastic shokk attack guns. The lower is cut from a stormboy jump pack.

Here is a progress pic. These will be little bigger than the previous dreads but not as big as a mega dread.

Love the face. Isn't the Testors liquid plasic glue a godsend compared to gels?

It is much better. The bottle knocks over too easy though.

I had a friend who glued a cap from a quart of Dean's milk ( the milk chug style) to the bottom to stabilize it.

Edit - some testing shows that glue may not be neccessary; the threading holds the bottle pretty firmly.

Who is Dean, and how can he manage to give so much milk?

That holds more detail than most 40K scale scratchbuilds!

The builds are done. Now I have to decide on paint.
Should I paint both as Bad Moons?
...or, paint one as a Goff and one as Bad Moon and make them Boss Dreads? (repainting a Goff Dread to Bad Moon to complete the Mobs)

These are awesome, I'd certainly go mad trying to recreate them though.

Sucky metal dreads & kans for me I guess. Unless some nice talented animal has plans to do them in the future sometime...

I have scratched this itch.
No more Ork Dreads for me.
I will probably buy the metal minis and if any animals do decide to make Kans then I will want those as well but for now, I am done.
