Unit Discussion/Previews

So... umm, what's next? I thought of fiddling a bit with the dreadnoughts.
At least one for chaos, one venerable for space wolfs (or whoever got that in the lists of lizzy) and the furioso for blood angels. That furioso is a nasty piece of work: two close-combat powerclaws combined with a flamer and a heavy bolter.
 
Aaaah Powerthirst! I remember these! :D God love those guys xD Haha, Superbingo was the best. I even made a deershank emote!

And woah, dude, if you made dreads that's be completely awesome!
 
Hi :)

This dreadnought-model takes a bit more work than I thought, because of various reasons.

Here's a very early work-in-process picture (VEWIPP) of the furioso. These are still missing:
- legs :rolleyes:

All the red there shall be civ-colour.

Your units are nice as always aaglo, but what was wrong with the Muffins dreadnaught?
 
nothing :) - lizzy wanted a bit more variation: a furioso for the blood angels (a dread with two close-combat arms combined with a flamer and a twin-bolter), and a venerable dreadnought (a deadlier version for the space wolfs) and a chaos dreadnought. :)

Of course we are going to use the muffin's dread too (it would be stupid not to).

I see. So you are starting to figure out unit lines and such? :)
 
Yeah, check out the first post of this thread... there's some unit-lines for you. Altough, Lizzy hasn't been updating the lists recently - maybe he's going to do it once every month?
 
Can we get rid of the "Chaos Librarian" from the chaos list? They... don't exist :)
A Chaos Sorceror would be best!
 
You mean that .... chaos people don't read books? Okay :)

Here's a preview of the furioso dreadnought in civ-coloured paint-job. The size of this thing is pretty much the same as the muffins dreadnought. I hope the blood angels will have red civ colour... :)

I mean, I could make it with fixed red paint on, but then there would be virtually no good place for civ-colouring. Why?
Because I like to use the colours not used generally in my palettes as civ-colour. And these colours are blue and cyan. Both of these colours cannot be put next to red colour, because anti-aliasing makes the border between these two colours magenta - which happens to be the transparency colour in my units. Thus, the borderline of civcolour & red colour becomes transparent, which -for obvious reasons - is not a good thing.

You might protest, that there were civ-coloured patches in the baal predator. Well, yes. But these civ-coloured pathces were isolated with dark gray pieces, so that tere were virtually no joint borders between civ-colour and red. So there :) .

I think you worked out the best way of doing it :)
And man... that think looks... fierce!
 
They could be a little larger but if it's too awkward to resize then I can't see much of a problem.
