"don't be afraid of Death, cos she transcend you" (ascribe to Reverend Brother Richard, Black Templar Dreadnought)

my god i did it, finally!!

painting a resin model need a little of preparation (something like 18 or 20 hours):

1°: take your Credit Card and go on Forgeworld site to buy a (very expensive) dreadnought mkIV
2°: wait patiently two or three weeks for delivery
3°: remove the resin burr
4°: glue temporary your dreadnought and all conversion to equilibrate the model
5°: dive a first time your resin pieces in acétone (carefull to your wears)
6°: brush forcefully with a little of soap
7°: assembly your model
8°: paint three black undercoat to cover all the white surfaces :phew:

next part, The Painting (nearly 30 hours of paint):
6 hours on the flag (i wanted to do somethings special, a light/dark oppositon with the lion )
11 hours on the body ( the classical body with a lot of purity seals)
2 hours on the twin autocanons (shred the flesh ^^)
3 hours on the left arm and the power spear (it looks more to a knight now)
2 hours on the legs
4 hours on the base ( i'd want to challenge a Nurgle Player, not you ;) )

products i use:
Kodak Easyshare DX7630
Shneider Variogon 39mm-117mm focus
Phillips Daylight Bulb
Adobe Photoshop 5.5

that's all folks ^^

WOAH! THAT IS AWESOME!

The paint job is subperb and that conversion is even better! A Dreadnought that holds a Close Combat weapon in it's claw? That's just too awesome! Plus the huge autocannons, the scrolls, the seals, the huge flag... all of it. This is quite the piece of work, worthy of entering into an actual Golden Demon tournament! This is going right into the favorites!
