Cyrox Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Well sort of... My pilot is 99% done - Just needs left shoulder pad in chapter colours, and maybe an Army badge down on the right greave http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/DSC_0003.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/DSC_0009.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/DSC_0005.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/DSC_00072.jpg C&C welcome Cheers Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221751-started-my-storm-raven/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzdougs Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Very nice!! The red is particularly impressive. I'm looking forward to seeing further updates in the neer future.

Cyrox Posted February 7, 2011 Author Share Posted February 7, 2011 @TerminatorinHell Yes, its a Techmarine pilot so I went for the Red armour As for Weapons loadout, i have no idea yet ;) The Red is actually Army Painter Pure Red spray. I was in two minds whether or not to use it, as i think the finish from their sprays is pretty poor, but i wanted to get it painted! I shaded it first with Baal Red and then Devlan Mud, and highlighted with blazing orange Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221751-started-my-storm-raven/#findComment-2649700 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typical Cricket Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Very nice looking pilot. Can't wait to see how the rest of the ship comes out. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221751-started-my-storm-raven/#findComment-2649704 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Duck Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I've been working on mine but bumped into the problem of paint vs plastic glue. Wanted to paint the interior of the cabin (which went well) but stupidly also painted the exterior of those parts too which then left me with a sludgy mess on the joins. Most of its cleared now but it had me a bit worried for a moment! I've decided now to build all I can before doing any more painting as trying to paint in the tighter spots seems to be the lesser of two evils. Love the look of your tech marine though :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221751-started-my-storm-raven/#findComment-2649759 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrox Posted February 7, 2011 Author Share Posted February 7, 2011 Thanks! He will be the only Red part of the SR though It will either be painted in Raptors or Hawk Lords colours :devil: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221751-started-my-storm-raven/#findComment-2649845 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulkan454 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I vote Raptors :D I think purple would clash too much with the red and it definitely doesn't have anything whatsoever to do with me being a Raptors player ;) Great work so far though.

Vulkan I disagree, there just aren't enough purple marines out there, go Hawk Lords!

Stryker Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 All three of mine are being done as Raven Guard, and I saw an extremely well-done Raptors one on (I think) Warseer. Therefore, I think you should go Hawk Lords, they're supposedly the best Thunderhawk pilots in the Galaxy, so it seems appropriate they train on Stormravens first :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221751-started-my-storm-raven/#findComment-2655745 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malus Trux Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I know it wasn't intentional but that 2nd pic makes the pilot look adorable. As adorable as an 8' cybernetic supersoldier can be anyways. Shouldn't an arm or at least a shoulder pad be painted chapter colors though? Still amazing either way.

I agree, I'd be willing to wager Hawk Lords are the daddy when it comes to piloting Storm Ravens @Malus Trex The left pad will either be Warlock Purple or Catachan Green, depending on the Chapter :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221751-started-my-storm-raven/#findComment-2656777 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyrox Posted September 29, 2011 Author Share Posted September 29, 2011 Thread revive! Been busy working on Night Lords , and due to painting up a test vehicle in Hawk Lords colours and it looking daft, i put this on a back burner. However.... I have decided to use him for my Salamanders force that i've just started, so this will be a Salamander Stormraven Sooo.... Minor update - Cockpit finished. Now i can put the canopy on, mask it and get on with painting it: http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/109cfeae.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/cd4bed25.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/146bfaa9.jpg Going to finish off the servitor and the inside of the turret, than its getting some Green on it :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221751-started-my-storm-raven/#findComment-2888943 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulkan454 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Looking nice Cyrox, shame you've abandoned your Raptors, but at least it's for my second favorite chapter. Hopefully the next update will be sooner than the last :) Vulkan Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221751-started-my-storm-raven/#findComment-2888987 Share on other sites More sharing options...
