Contemptor Pattern Dread....

SHWING

That is all.

I'm neutral on this one. I like that it is bigger, but the egg body reminds me of humpty dumpty with a gun. lol

SHWING indeed!

That might make for an excellent alternate dreadknight model.

@James: To each his own. I just think it looks more "alive" than the standard dread, while still keeping with the general feel.

@ Spamus: That was my second thought. That said your conversion is still cheaper ($90 for Body and 2 arms, OUCH).

Not a fan myself. My homemade Ironclad looks sexier

Absolutely love it. This is for the preheresy lovers out there.

What was the other name of the early dreadnought patterns? There was the Contemptor (chuck), Furioso (Fury) and the something or other nicknamed eddy from way back int he rogue trader days. Can't remember the proper name of the third one.

The old contemptor was armed with four bolters I believe.

Yeah, I think I also kind of like the big lug.

Although, considering he has a bigger frame, I think Id really like to see something a bit more impressive with the gun layout.. but I do like the bulky, chunky style body.

I think all those sharpied out weapon systems will give you some BFG's.
