Lux Aeterna

[CommanderSamirus]

This is a project I've been working on for a week or two now but have wanted to do for several years.  I call her the Lux Aeterna, Eternal Light.  The design is loosely based on Warmaster Nice's Jutland and Chubbybob's Emperor's Reach, so credit to both of them for the inspiration.  I will post better pics when I get out my actual camera so these were taken with my phone but they'll do for now.




















I can also post up the Not-Yet-Playtested rules if anyone is interested, though I know Dreadnoughts usually wind up overpowered or completely worthless I'm hopping to find a mid point.  Credit to both Chubbybob (Emperor's Reach) and Admiral Rob de Bertl (Deliverance, Warp Rift 21) for inspiring the rules.

It has got a wow factor to it.  Very cool!

Great stuff. Far better build than anything I could do. 9/10 + 200 internets for awesomeness!!!!

My only complaint would be that the parts nicked from the navy bits are a bit "smooth" in comparison to the the BFG components. I'd of put some plasticard strips to blend the styles a bit more. Again, that's me being an arm chair builder so feel free to ignore me

Really digging this. Curious about the bottom keel and what exactly you fab'd there. The picture is a bit blurry (or my eyes have finally failed me)

I might see if I can get some more PC strips in there to kind of blend the superstructure a bit more.  I might try that before I get out the real camera.

Awesome dreadnought.  I love your use of the Ravenwing jetbike prow there, really gave you room to thicken out the ship properly.  I've seen a few that seemed a little too thin from the front, but she looks nicely proportionate.
