World Eaters Possessed Chaos Dreadnaught - Kitbash
This was a major kitbash to create a cheaper funkier chaos dread for my World Eaters army. I got the inspiration when I first saw the Krash Thrax model for Inquisito. It took me a few months to get a hold of one. Thankfully they had em at Games Day, especially since I had asked a mate to get him and the extra bits I'd need when he went over to the UK. He got the extras for the conversion but not the main model. Anyway onto what went where. The torso and arms are from the origianl Krash Thrax. I added new bigger plastic 40K weapons. A vehicle heavy flamer and a pair of bolt guns. I added extra detailing with green stuff and plastic rod. The legs are the regular Chaos Dreadnaught legs, the feet are converted Sentinal ones with the toes rearranged with some added rivet plates in the fronts. I added actuaters on the back with plastic rod and bolts on the sides. I joined the legs to the torso with brass rod and aluminium tubing for the hydraulics. I wanted an open space between them for that ABC warrior look. The backpack powerplant is a Chaos Raptor backpack with added smokestacks. Oh and the face mask which really nailed the look I was going for is from a defiler with the jaw removed, it fit the inq scale head perfectly.
