Adding some Primarus Models to my army... something for a change of pace.
Here is the assembly of the Redemptor Dreadnought.



Havent assembled the Macro Plasma Incinerator Yet, but I plan on making it so that I can switch them out.


And for size comparrison for anyone that hasn't seen how large this thing really is.


I will post more as I add more progress.

Looking good. I've not seen one in the flesh yet but would love to see how they scale against a Leviathan Dreadnought

 

[kingzerno]

Am I the only one who dislikes the model? It just looks so squat and ugly...give me a contemptor for looks any day.

 

[MarxusTharin]

From all appearances, the Leviathan and the Redemptor seem to be about the same height... I think that the redemptor is a bit bulkier, and imo I like that better for a dreadnought...

 

[MarxusTharin]

 

[Lord Borak]

Looks fairly similar in size although, yeah, the Leviathan Dread does appear to be a touch smaller. I do prefer the sleeker design of the Leviathan though. The Redemptor looks like it's something from Mech Warrior but I thank that's mainly to do with how far apart it's legs are. If they were a bit closer together I think I'd like it a lot more.

That tank has guns on it's guns. When are you going to paint something?

 

[MarxusTharin]

I've got the first one primed.. gonna prime the second one then start work on em.

I magnetized the options on it, but unfortunately, the back turret wasn't fully dry when I set it in place, and now it is stuck,

I will also be priming the grav plates separately. I hate the price on the GW Mephiston Primer.... $20 is BS, but I haven't found a good red primer that is close enough in color to any of the model paints and that won't go on too thick.

 

[MarxusTharin]

OK.. progress...

 

[Lord Borak]

Looking good. What spray is that?

 

[jamesvalentine]

needs more Nurgle

I must admit I do like the look of these new vehicles. I definitely wanna paint a repulsor up for an inquisitor and maybe a corrupted death guard primaris dreadnought.
the advantage of not playing is you can do anything

 

[MarxusTharin]

Unfortunately, it is the GW Mephiston Red Primer that costs $20 US.

I wish I could find a comparable color with the same consistency of coating... I tried one brand of red, and it coated WAY too thick...

 

[Lord Borak]

I've heard/seen that the Army Painter Red spray is a good colour for Blood Angels so give that one a look

 

[MarxusTharin]

Needs work on the skull still, and some highlights...

 

[Lord Borak]

The Plasma coils have come out really well. Are you doing anything else with the red?

 

[MarxusTharin]

I still need to highlight it.. never done battle damage, but might add some chipping effects and some staining.

 

[MarxusTharin]

As promised, some highlighting done on the Plasma Cannon... hopefully it is subtle enough... it seems a bit louder with a bright light on it.



Metallic joints and struts.




I noticed that the highlight on the end of the barrel seemed a bit too loud in comparison, so I have subdued it since.

Coming along nicely!!
