I chopped up an old Rhino door, a couple of brass parts which are part of the Citadel Warhammer 40,000 Basing Kit (image below) and a chopped up bit of ForgeWorld Resin spru for the feature details on the base. I used techniques covered in the ForgeWorld Modelling Masterclass for weather the base. This basically consisted of using oil washes and diluted weathering powders to achieve a realistic look. As can be seen from the image of the old base, its so much better and more fitting of such an awesome model!

Contemptor Dreadnought Rebased
Todays post covers a rebasing of my Contemptor Dreadnought. I haven't been happy with the original base for a while now, and this week I wanted a quick and easy hobby project so thought I'd spend some time giving this model a more detailed base. I've included a comparison image of the old base... I hope you agree that the new one looks much better!
