The new dread is complete! Pivot under the arm allows major posing while not too far from the arm (took inspiration from gunpla shields here) I think a punching style shield fits this so much better!
Yrda, a Legio Custodes dreadnought surviving into the adeptus custodes, armed with an axe and shield which is mounted as a striking weapon rather than a defensive item.

3D Items printed on elegoo saturn ultra 4 12k with Siraya tech fast tough navy grey resin at default settings, cleaned in 91% isopropal alcohol in ultrasonic cleaner for 3 minutes then cured in rotating station for 20 minutes.Left side of miniature showing off shield with iconography including; an aquilla, crux, gem, filigree, stylized curved lightning, and filigreed laurels. Shield also includes additional bracing for striking targets with edge.Right side of miniature showing off axe held in the hand that comes with the kit no issue. Axe shows up a wealth of filigree on both back and front blades.Rear view of the miniature just to see how the shield mounts to the forearm.

Well I woke up at 3am and had to do something, so here it is my Custodes Contemptor Exemplar Dreadnought, or venerable for 40k. Probably still going to do a melta cannon and maybe less fancy version for marines.

The collection for dreads so far. Going to do a new sword grip variant so the newer plastic hand can hold easily. The rotary cannon should be magnetizable easily but it's a moot point with that variant being cast into the shadow realm that is legends. printer maintenance worked wonderfully though
4 custodian dreadnought weapons with 2 broken into sub-assembly parts. A sword with hand already on it, an axe, a 4 barreled cannon with forearm, and a lance with a long blade to the fore and running down the upper half of the grip.

All items are 3D prints from an elegoo Saturn ultra 4 12k done in siraya fast tough navy grey resin.

Parts are designed for a plastic custodes dreadnought and are sized to fit plastic hands around grips. Cannon designed to fit onto upper arm flawlessly.

New set of weapons for a new squad, well some new some tweaked and some moved. Mace is coming over from another set, axe is new, thin sword had it's blade tweaked and kukri/falcata had it's entire hilt redone. #Heresy #HorusHeresy #BloodAngels #Ofanim
A series of weapons starting with a hollow tipped teardrop shaped shortspear, next an oversized kukri resembling a falcata, then a flanged mace with claw like flanges, an axe with a wing shaped back spike, a thin saber like weapon with sharp curves, and lastly a katana styled blade on european longsword hilt.

All weapons are show with bluish steel, and enlayed with red and gold and teardrop motifs.

So my design rig's keyboard broke and it was gonna cost me some $300 to replace and I have no place in my home to use an external keyboard. So I've decided to say to hell with HP and ordered an Asus and it should be here next week and hopefully I can just swap my drives. Wish me luck.

A checkerboard modification to my existing shields. I may chuck these up prior to finishing print tests since the structure is fine but we'll see. Was a commission where the guy wanted 10 unique patterns just like the chevrons, so he got it. #darkangels #heresy #breachers #warhammer

These printed beautifully with only 1 support and 2 branches in FDM. Bottoms have some small droops with no supports so I'm testing mass supported now. Resin had all sorts of supports to clean so I tried this. Also changed this file to have zero supports and same errors but beautiful from above!

"I'm making gravy without the lumps!" Did this frag grenade as a prop for my local store after the last item (a human scale meltabomb) And this came out a skosh too big (It's like 8mm wide, I gotta scale it down 20-22%) but right now this one is perfect for marine scale! #warhammer

So I'm experimenting with stamping and creating my own stamp plates for doing markings on models. The design here is a stylized bear skull done by @spectralidax.bsky.social (wonderful, skilled artist, adorable sharks). I'm having issues with acrylic paint drying to fast to finish though.

I really lament that model proportions for marines and custodes preclude so many poses like these. We can approximate some but so many are just impossible without clipping. into the torso. Maybe I should try again with newer models. Love this artist though, so many great poses and at rest shots.

So I've gotten 25 different designs of shields all with .25 raised or lowered or both detail. Current rears are designed to snugly fit assault terminators but rear variants are coming with a blender file to pick and match to export as whatever shield you need.
A collection of viking era inspired shields for space normans fvarying from traditional designs from the viking age to ones inspired by imperial compliance and ones more designed from Fenrisian lore. 

A few based off of Space Wolves or Vlka Fenrika iconography and some based off imperial designs redone in a viking style, and some that are just 30-40k years of cultural drift from traditional designs.A view of the detail showing the .5mm pan between shield front and rim and boss as well as the raised and sunken detail.Rear detail of the shields as currently designed.
