Yes, really great. I have started drilling in the paper for the first time a couple days ago to place magnets in my dreadnought and I can appreciate the different advices. Thanks for the detailed reporting of the build

don't know that one, the one I am building is a space wolf

after seeing me model in paper for a while my 9 year old daughter wanted to try. Since the previous test had been too ambitious ( a Rhino) I suggested something else for her. So she did 2 flipit jets and is very happy, she is now planning to make a whole army. So thanks...

and silveroxide, I just bought some styrene sheets and I am thinking about building at least one dreadnought from the other designs floating around with them for painting.

well I usually work on my current model and/or mini painting for my son from 22h00 (kids are sleeping) to 2h00 or so (I need to go sleeping) with a short time for small stuff or publishing a post from 8h30 (back from walking my daughter to school) to 9h00 (time to go to work)

very nice base and nice paper build, I would say that judging from the tanks you have made a lot of progress in the painting area or is it all due to the switch to airbrushing? Also what type of paint were you using, miniature paint or something else?

Definitely looks funny like that. An idea is that I could have a piece going down from the grapple and touching the top of the head. It would be the model for the real grapple even though on the model the magnets are in the exhausts. I put them there because those are convenient locations. You...

last post before going to work, I have tested the carrying system. As those of you familiar with war40k may know the dreadnought is supposed to be transportable by the stormraven (right now they don't have compatible liveries but it shouldn't be too much of a problem, specially since space...

OK I am continuing on the backpack/engine, unfortunately as I do it I realize that the armor plates on the torso are not glued in the correct position, there are interferences. I think this will be the case on the "good" dreadnought too. I decided to continue anyway with the torso assembly, if...

There is also the stormraven from newobmij

at least for the dreadknight the livery may not be an issue since as far as I know they can only be used by grey knights...

I thought so, as you can see I have glued part 7 in place as their was in fact a rectangle the exact same size on the back. Part 6 seemed a bit small compared to the top rectangle of the central back which is why I wasn't sure. Thanks for the picture

clear thanks for the explanation

now I am making part 6 and reinforcing the inside with Depron + 3 layers of 210g paper. I just try first if I can put one or 2 Depron layers in their and complete till it is packed with paper.

wondering how to use part 6 and 7 which must be parts of the backpack I think

I have not seen any dreadknight anywhere. The other exists but may be not with the grey knight livery

Ah a different take on the louvers compared to mine. Regarding the inside of the nozzle, I am also quite happy with the look I got painting "flames" I really like the look of your vents. Finally can you tell me what "greebles" means, I am french and my english doesn't extends to this level of...

close up of the hip assembly, 2 things to notice: 1) the cylinder jutting from the pelvis is not hollow, it was filled with a rolled up piece of paper itself glued on itself. This makes it solid and makes the attachment to the pelvis much stronger 2) there is a mess of superglue on top of the...

I see that you ran into the same set of issues as I did with the legs. The hoses look like you made real tube which is better than the 2D ones which are from the template.

nice way to do the cone. I agree with you about the tabs, I never did airplanes so those were my first try and I failed lamentably so what I did was roll a cone of paper ( a bit like a cylinder) which is not the right shape but didn't look too bad. I'll try this way (I did buy a dremmel a few...
