Interrogator Stobz Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 ThunderRaven or StormHawk :P Brilliant conversion CV, that is WAY better than GWs job. Well done. I have no names in my noggin for this cool creature. Maybe a tutorial of sorts to enlighten us about your process? s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tengo Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Skystalker? Sky spectre? That's all I got at the moment, but I'll be sure to keep you in mind! And that's a very, very nice job, it looks fickin' awesome, well done man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HJL Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Yes very nice job. How did you make the back part? Names Gabriel patern lander - ex Master of the Deathwing, make them bone colour Gideon patern lander - ex Master of the Ravenwing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puck Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'm always a big fan of heavy handed names: Doom Bringer Hunter (nice subtle Fallen hunting nod) Swift Strike Lander Angel Wing (if its DA specific in your fluff) Dread Hawk/Wing (my favorite so far) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillyfish Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Thunderbird [Laughs] Is that a Gerry Anderson reference? As for names, it depends on whether this is DA only or wider? Vengeance Valedictor Redemptor (too similar to the Fortress?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayward Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Marine Flyers names always are [weather phenomena] + [bird]. SO: Cyclone Fog Heat wave Cold wave Thunderstorm Hailstorm Microburst Doomcloud Supercell Derecho Squall line Tornado Whirlwind Twister Waterspout Typhoon Windstorm Storm Blizzard Hurricane Match any of those with a bird and youre done. If I were you, I`ll use the Sparrow :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claws of Corax Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Can I throw into the hat: Stormgriffon. (Griffon being a winged Lion). Just a thought.. Claws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roesor Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Or it could just be a Stormhawk, the original incarnation. DA specific...hmm... 'Penance Chariot'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigGumbo Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 DA specific...hmm... 'Penance Chariot'? Sounds more Sisters of Battle to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wacca Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I'm sorry, maybe you should put the Stormraven next to your model because other than the prow wings and missing the topgun I can't see any change. Another question is how on earth can the front argo door open with that assault cannon? so unfortunately I would have to call this the un landable or the un deployable. I would be interested to see it painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
company veteran Posted February 7, 2012 Author Share Posted February 7, 2012 my version is extended from the original stormraven so it doesnt look like a 'flying toaster' alsoit doesnt have an assault ramp...its only entry points are the back and sides. it functions more like a gunship. also it is my thought that the landing gear goes lower than the assault cannons. my version standard version http://www.steelpaladin.com/images/stormraven.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
