My name is Mark. I have been painting miniatures for little over 13 years. Painting miniatures is something I been doing for a very long time. It takes patients, practice and a lot of motivation.

Optaurium Class Dreadnought
2290: Little did the ISA know that the Centauri Republic released a brand new warship. Not even Emperor Vir Cotto new that it was contructed or built. It was kept so secret because of the enemy they where fighting, "The Drakh". The Drakh had spies every where. So by keeping it secret. They used their telepaths to control the flow of information.
There will be no fighters, This is simply a big gun in space. That is because, I have a Super Assault
Carrier already my Centauri Fleet.
Primary & Secondary Main Weapons: Two Optional layouts
4 Improved Neutron Cannons
4 Matter Cannons
or
8 Matter Cannons
+
4 Advance Battle Lasers
Two Optional Weapon main Layouts: Depending on the tactical and mission profile.
Defensive Weapons
36 Twin Arrays
Twin Arrays: The reason for the down grade of the Twins Arrays is because of the amount of energy require to use for the 4 Improved Neutron Cannons. The Twin Arrays are just as effective compare to the Heavy Array, just less advance.
Primary and Secondary Hull Plating
Improved Armor
Advance Communications
Improved Sensor Suite
Primary and Secondary Reactors
Advance Thrusts
Shuttle Compliment: 8
Reactors: The reason to have two reactors is this, the first reactor will require to channel the amount of thrust to propel the ship and to power up the other systems on board. The second reactor requires to power up the weapons.
I was going to add a mass driver by using one from a Dilgar miniature I had in my stash by adding to the under belly of the Dreadnought. Then I felt that was a bit overkill.

Finally, I received my 2 Evergreen .60 plasti card in. I drew out the shape I wanted and made sure it was long enough and duplicated each peace. So, the tail doesn't feel so thin. Then I used my band saw to cut it out. I then took the wide piece and cut it in half and did some sanding to get it even as possible. I then glue the two halves to the small tail section. The tail basically looks like a double wedge shape or object.
Now it's minor sanding and then adding green stuff or my favorite, GW's Liquid Green to smooth out the surface. I just need to do few things before gluing it to the rear of my Centauri Dreadnought.

First Circle access: Classified
Race: Narn Regime
Project Drone
Statistics: Gun Drone
Manufacture: Bor'Goth System
Atmospheric
Short Range
2 Pairs of Particle Guns
4 Light Pulse Cannons
Reinforce Armor
Mission Profile: harassment, overwhelm
Statistics: Missile Drone
Manufacture: Bor'Goth System
Atmospheric
Short Range
Extreme Explosive Pay Load
4 Light Pulse Cannons
Reinforce Armor
Mission Profile: The drone is essentially a large missile. Home in on it's designated target ranging from small to large ships. Carries extreme pay load. It will either cripple or destroy the ship all together. For defense, it has 4 Light Pulse Cannons to fend off incoming fire.
This was a very simple Kitbash I did this by using left over parts of a Varnic Long Range Destroyer. All I need to do now is to clean it and the paint it. I'm thinking of painting it similar to the Frazi Heavy Firghter or something along those lines.

After debating and contemplating for the name of this Centauri Dreadnought. Finally, Behold the
Optaurium Class Dreadnought
another quick update
It turns out there was a lot more to do then I thought. I had to correct some areas. I then extended the wing span and now it really has the overall bat appearance. I then added 4 Battle Lasers and then the 36 Twin Arrays. Now it just minor clean up and that is it. Still waiting for my Evergreen .60 Plasti Card to come in.
