Heresy Era Sons of Horus - Anvilus Dreadclaw painted!

Just a quick hit this evening - Finally got a chance to upload a fair few pics of some work done over the last week or two, starting off with a Dreadclaw for the Sons of Horus!


I ended up picking up a trio of them ostensibly for the Sons of Horus, but upon further reflection two of them are going to be held in reserve for some future project. As I'd done a whole drop army with the previous Thousand Sons I didn't want to just repeat that. However, it'll be useful to have one in the SoH force to ferry in a dreadnought or cheeky unit of terminators!


Pretty straightforward scheme, gave the ground spikes and undercarriage a little weathering, but the model is so 'busy' that there's not really much of a place where I thought any waterslide transfers would look good. So, calling it done for now!

  1. Paintjob great, but I feel at least small Eye of Horus or a numeral or two could be of benefit? These pods are less disposable than the normal pod and return to the launch craft. Marvellous

  2. That giant eye looking door on the bottom could be the Eye of Horus. Just a thought.

    1. Ooh - An excellent suggestion! Would need to be free-handed but I think I could pull it off... Thanks!

  3. Yeah, numerals would do it.

    Do you have any Cthonic script ? perhaps that might fit.

    1. Good call - I think there's some choice little script on the SoH transfer sheet. Will take a look!

  4. Always loved that model and that is a good variation of it. Well done.

    More iconography would be good, as well as possible heat markings.

    1. Aye, it needs a little something more. I think once I get the icons freehanded in it'll get another pass of soot and scratches... Cheers!
