Utu, A’an
Next up, an Osirion-patter dreadnought. Unfortunately the Osirion pattern has no rules in 40k, so he’ll likely be fielded as a daemon prince.

Converdionwise he started out as a regular plastic contemptor, however I didn’t want to have the regular boring arms; in line with the fluff I have for him I want him to be wielding a large khopesh force weapon, and that required different arms, which have been taken from the dreadknight. I also took the legs from a regular dread to give him a little extra height to help make him more impressive.
At this point I noticed the torso looks undersized in comparison so I’m working on bulking that up a bit.
To keep in him in line with the other psykers and the Forge World Osirion I’m planning on giving him a crown, and currently I’m thinking of using a Tomb Kings’ shield as a base.
The winged chest plate is from the bitz box, no idea of its origin.
