Night Runner Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Truly marvelous conversions. I especially like how you used the high elf parts as conversions for your chapters iconography. keep up the good work and the pics. :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyron Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 http://40kforums.com/imageupload/images/img4adf067901d24.jpg How did you do the wings please? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Lysander Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Those are the wings from the Empire Standard Bearer plastic kit from WFB. Since I've been on B&C for far longer then I have posted, I remember first seeing the Chapter Champion and gasping. It is indeed magnificent work, one of my favourite champions of all time.

Roleplayer Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 How I did the wings on the chapter champion must be the question I get asked more than any other question! (Other then, how to paint red.) I cannot take credit for the idea of the conversion, I was inspired by nothing less than a Games workshop web article You can find it here, http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/...006&start=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Lysander Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Ah, right that article: I haven't read it for a while. Thanks for sharing with us the source of your inspiration :lol:. Shows the conversion really works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where THEY die." Comments, critques welcome. I'm trying to crank my models out a bit faster atm, getting tired of having so much unpainted on the battlefield. So I'm starting to cut a few corners with the basic infantry models! :) Also this new light in my apartment sucks, and is obscuring a lot of the highlights. My girlfriend bought a 'cool' light, and it is mucking up the photos, but hiding the bleached bone highlights, and reflecting off white really badly.

MattCrawford Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Astounding paintjob, though I think they look far too "new". Those suits and vehicles have been in use for hundreds or even thousands of years - I personally like to add lots of wear and tear to both my loyalist and traitor marines. That being said, the work is still phenomenal. You've got definite skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, the work is still phenomenal. You've got definite skill. I'm the opposite. I made a deliberate choice when I started my marines to make everything look new. Sure, they are hundreds of years old, but does that mean they dont retouch the paint up between campaigns? The armor and tanks are sacred, so I imagine between every campaign they get fully rebuilt/repaired and repainted. The Horus Heresy novels have space marines constantly painting and polishing their armor and buffing it while on their battle barges. So this is meant to be a space marine force just about to start a crusade, while everything is still new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefoserpent Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Indeed , these models sure look amazing! I just love the way you have captured that " raven " thingy , with the wings , scrolls etc. This is the way a true Blood Raven marine looks. Kydos to you. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CREATOR_OF_ALL_SINS Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 They look awesome!!!!! Also, i have heard that there is a upcoming article on free hand blood raven sybols in next months white dwarf so give it a go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother-Karid Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I've looked at these models several times now and each and every time I remain stunned. I love the Blood Ravens, first chapter I was ever exposed to in Dawn of War and easily my favorite chapter. Excellent job on the highlights and the modeling, everything looks natural and I love the color of red you used, especially how it has more of an earthy feel to it compared to the much cleaner feel that some models have.

Talhydras Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 For your first army they are absolutely amazing, I wish my first army would have looked like that... :) But hey, you're a cartographer. That's... dunno, kind of unfair ;) GS'ing away all those UM-Symbols is also good work. I WANT MORE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
