Beef Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 finally a mass produced one, I hope i can post this here http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Stormraven-Gunship-/...a9#ht_584wt_730 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201886-stormraven-model/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaarl Stormfang Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 It's certainly pretty nice, but I can't help but feel it looks a little like an ork fighta bomma, especially the shots of underneath. It's trying to look too much like a real modern day plane. I prefer the homemade ones on the internet that look like a mini thunderhawk (aka flying brick). like this: stormraven Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201886-stormraven-model/#findComment-2405105 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 yes definatly, thats a lovely model you have linked to Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201886-stormraven-model/#findComment-2405127 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProteanSun Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I wish there was a definitive model for it. I love the look of the Land Raider front with the Valkyrie back, but frankly that is an expensive model. The one in the OP is nice but as said above looks more orky.

Valerian Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 yes definatly, thats a lovely model you have linked to Yes it is, but I doubt whoever made that is going to mass-produce them and sell them for just $69 each. The one on eBay that Beef linked in the original post is pretty nice for the price.

Burningblood Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 OP- check out where that model is from. the philipines. More than likely its sweatshop made. Also the shipping is 20+ american dollars. Not worth it in any way. Jaarl- that pic is a great find.

Not worth it in any way.Jaarl- that pic is a great find. I dunno if it's a sweatshop tbh mate - it's all casted rather than kitbash, wouldn't imagine it'd be all that labour intensive for a couple people to do it... Although I do agree with the Ork sentiments above, I certainly wouldn't buy it. However, this guy seems to be doing it for £105 all in, quite a bit pricier but painted and nicer imo - he makes them to order, so you can specify loadouts etc., and looks more like the 2nd one posted here, looks good imo: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...e=STRK:MEWAX:IT If I had the cash I'd go for it, but having just spent ~£200 in the last 2 months buying my BA bits and pieces for my army from scratch I think I can afford to wait until an official model comes out along with the Inquisition codex (here's hoping the rumors are true...).

Not worth it in any way.Jaarl- that pic is a great find. Yea, we know it is from the Philippines. SW players have ordered his thunder wolf mounts and are pretty happy with the quality. I am trying to figure out where you are going to get a Storm Raven for $100. Land Raider is $58 and Valk is $58, and that doesn't include kit bashing or construction.

MayorDaley Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Jaarl, would you happen to know how to get a tutorial for that model? For that matter, does anybody know where to find it. I have seen this build on the 'net multiple times now, but nobody is sharing :cuss !

Jaarl Stormfang Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Nah I don't, sorry. Here's a link to something on dakka though, very similar and different angles so maybe helpful for those trying to emulate it. http://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/97160-St...ven,%20WIP.html Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201886-stormraven-model/#findComment-2405237 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burningblood Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Ah i didn't see that it was casted. still- 26 bucks for shipping? Someone in america/europe needs to do that.
