Deathwatch Dreadnought (Part 3)

 With just a little bit of spare time to focus on this thing, I have finished my 2023 Dreadtober project! 

Finished, yay!

The stripe on his leg was done using Mephiston Red straight from the bottle. Two straight swipes and the effect was achieved. The green light is green simply for a bit of contrast. The base color is Caliban Green with a dash of Moot Green and final dot of white. 

Show me your right side.

Ultimately I decided to put the word BURN on his leg scroll. Seemed simple and direct, you know, like his multi-melta. 

Show me your left side! 

And here he is embracing the Emperor's Light of an October morning sun, with a devoted determination to continue the long vigil and bring the xenos scum, wherever they might lurk, to heel. With melting heat. 

"Shhh, I'm hunt'n xenos scum."

I got to give a shot out to the all of this year's Dreadtober participants for doing some stellar work. Truly inspiring stuff.

Looks good!

You're ahead of me though I'm not too far behind. I was doing touch ups last night and just need to do some weathering and basing to finish it up.

Oh, I do like the effect you achieved on the multi-melta! That stripe on the shin adds a nice cpot of colour, and I wholeheartetly agree on you choice of colours for the green lense!

I do love a classic Castraferrum Pattern Dreadnought. Nice work. Happy DreadTober!
