Something for the army again; this time, it's a pair of Dreadnoughts to go with the Space Marine component of the organisation. Obviously, I can't just get a dreadnought or two. That would be too easy... so I bought a box of Mechanicus robots and here we are. Still WIP but I am getting there :) :

They're looking good  :)

How many of the robots do you get in a box and I'm assuming they are plastic (I'm too lazy to trawl through the GW website)?

In today's little update, a top hatch, handle, front vent and some eyebrows have been added. Just for the record, the arms and top weapons are not glued in place yet... and the bodies are not attached to the base (so the pose hasn't been fixed yet) :) :



I will be fettling the bodies and getting them finished before moving on to the arms :) .

I like them ALOT! 8)

Would the magazine cartridge not be better suited closer to the guns? It looks a bit low ( ..  or the guns too high)

It's just belt fed from a drum... it could be further away and still work. Think of that drum as this trolley :) :

The ammo drum needs to be quite low in order to balance the look of the Dreadnought (because of the sharp, flat underside of the shoulder pod).

In other news... the Squat Berserker has been sold to Short Wars now :) . He will be available from here in good time:

http://www.shortwars.co.uk/

The miniature in question didn't fare particularly well in the competition but the ones above it were worthy of being there. Here's my now posted Berserker:



As for the Halfling snipers... they can now be found for sale over at CP models :) :

Most of the money from the sculpts I have sold has gone to charitable causes so everyone is a winner :)
