Salvage/Conversion: Grey Knights Dreadnoughts
11 Nov 2014
Three dreadnoughts I put together this year either through salvage or conversion. I put some extra love into the bases and gave the two Forge World dreads some magnetized hood ornaments to make them venerable. The TL auto-cannons were bought either direct from FW or through local trades. They are all magnetized for my swapping pleasure. Pretty simple project, but should be a fun one to paint.

Conversion: Kaldor Draigo, Grey Knights Supreme Grandmaster
14 Dec 2013
Primed, washed and ready for the paint table. Incidentally it is the same table I do everything else on. Don't know why I felt the need to specify. Getting a bit delirious after so many posts...alright, Draigo!

Conversion: Grey Knights Terminators-Paladins
14 Dec 2013
It should be pretty obvious to see what I did here. The day I saw the Dark Angels Deathwing Command multi-part kit I decided that these were the best paladin torsos in the line. I took all the steps and accumulated all the bits only to keep them in storage for most of the year. When I finally got around to building and magnetizing I hit a speedbump that added days to my kitbash. Due to the long tabard on the DA Knights, the terminator waistguards on the accompanying legs are sculpted out and almost opposite each other on the hip. Most plastic termie kit waist guards are substantially closer to the belt buckle. In practical terms this meant the awesome cloth torsos didn't fit my GK termie/paladin legs. I had 9 target paladins to make since my 10 was a Justicar Thawn optional that could as easily be a terminator captain, a paladin or Thawn, without switching bodies...
