Let's hug! A Contemptor class Dreadnought for the VI Legion in 30k |
More random painting production from my 30k interest/obsession. This is a plastic Contemptor Dreadnought painted in the colours of the VI Legion, the Space Wolves. This is a plastic model from the "Betrayal at Calth" box game, but given the Legion colours, it will instead be participating in some "Burning of Prospero" games instead :)
The "Burning of Prospero" game box does not come with any Dreadnoughts, but I got the notion from a White Dwarf article published around the same time they released the "Prospero" game. The article included stats and a scenario to include one of these bad-boys on the side of the Space Wolves. I really enjoyed painting the Space Wolves squad for the game, so I figured it would be fun to toss in a dreadnought for them as well.

I am enjoying the look of the grey and bronze on the Space Wolf stuff the more I see it...I had no notions of doing a VI Legion force of any size beyond the squad and character from the "Burning of Prospero" game, but who knows? Maybe I will return from the lake in the fall with a wide selection of loyalists in the grey armour of the VI Legion...
In the meantime, watch for more "Burning of Propsero" bits to appear shortly among some other ongoing 30k efforts...

Wow!
Very nice. I do love the old style dreadnoughts that are being brought to life from the HH artbooks they are cracking figures and you've painted it great as well.
