An old friend...


Here's an old buddy of mine.  This was the very first dreadnought that I scratch sculpted.  In fact, it was the first dreadnought I ever painted!

Ultimately, I ended up scratch building at least six.  I learned how to make the process go much more smoothly :-)  The latter versions were sculpted from extra firm sculpey, baked in pieces and then glued together afterward.


This was the original post, which shows how I made this first version, and some drawings for a future sculpt:



This was used in a number of games.  I remember using it in the warpgate scenario that we played out over 4 games, and the Defend the Factorum scenario which we also created.


So lots of fun with this guy.


And his own little buddies.
