Alternate Dred models

Post by jason1977 »

So if you dont know I have 100 deathwing terminators. Im working on getting 3 more dreds for a 10:1 (terminators:dreds) ratio. I also have 10 deathwing Knights on the way. I would like a dred for them as well. I was thinking of converting the GK dred knight but its just to dam tall. Other than FW, are there any other options out there?? If possible post a link.

Thanks,

Jason

Never ordered from them, so I can't comment on the quality.

Bit late I know, but if you're still looking, Privateer Press's Warmachine line might have miniatures you could convert. The Cygnar faction has several Warjacks that have a shield (which looks to be a DW feature) and look a bit like a Dread (if you squint) with their spindley little legs. Unfortunately, you're going to be getting the GW appearance without getting GW. Their legal dept has made sure of that. For a good selection of PP WarMachine, the WarStore ([Admin Edit - No linking to non-advertisers, please. Thanks. - MM]) is always a safe bet.
Good luck

PayPal or MO are both welcome.
No trouble with Canadian or overseas orders. Just please be aware of the extra time and postage costs involved.
Significantly lower rating ships/pays first - this goes both ways.

Are you looking at cheaper alternatives, older lines, or just cool squat mechs?

-you could probably get away with using the old chaos dread as an imperial one, with some nice painting and DA bits.
-I personally love the look of the old metal Venerable, would recommend that

if you're looking for a divergence, how close in aesthetic should it be?

I expect honesty about models' conditions, thank you.

If I don't respond in a day or two, please check back, I've forgotten-sorry.

Lower rating? You ship first.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.

Guys,

Thanks for the links and ideas. I have an idea in mind and now I will just need time and money to make it happen.
