Gareth Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I posted this on Tale of Painters yesterday. There are also WIP blog entries the past week if you're interested in how I painted the Storm Talon. If you just came here for the pics then wait no longer... http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0Z6EO9iTdyo/T_B09auyGrI/AAAAAAAABmY/tdH0vR0JnVw/s1600/IMG_4101.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ox9e_R2Rp7I/T_B0u-WmrlI/AAAAAAAABlI/rWJ1dmLGOMI/s1600/IMG_4089.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KAO9dyDO-8k/T_B0wUygXOI/AAAAAAAABlQ/IpgqMMvSFEw/s1600/IMG_4090.jpg http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7rYhIHVCjPo/T_B0xwBBXWI/AAAAAAAABlY/1l3yzW1vJ5Q/s1600/IMG_4091.jpg http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wLSeVq5Xzqc/T_B0z-lg2FI/AAAAAAAABlg/R2M6llkRntc/s1600/IMG_4092.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-n_3gSJnsjiA/T_B008QEX7I/AAAAAAAABlo/dmo8Z5UzFeQ/s1600/IMG_4093.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Kx-sGZ0A2e0/T_B03vcqvCI/AAAAAAAABl4/YCx7KwM6hv0/s1600/IMG_4095.jpg http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UMsSaYPwcKY/T_B04gz-B7I/AAAAAAAABmA/cVNFOtWytiw/s1600/IMG_4096.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tl3wBlcPjtc/T_B050qNtAI/AAAAAAAABmI/8A1LBsLRrQs/s1600/IMG_4097.jpg On a side note, my photography is really coming on in leaps and bounds with this home studio flash kit and DSLR. Really crisp, sharp, bright pictures. Maybe almost magazine quality.

Seahawk Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Beautiful! Does the Stormtalon really have a landing gear on the tail? How silly!

Gareth Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 Beautiful! Does the Stormtalon really have a landing gear on the tail? How silly! Not really, some modern helicopters have a rear wheel mounted on the rear tail. it's not really load bearing as all the weight would be in the front... plus 40k isn't real... if it was we wouldn't have half off the made up cool stuff. Some people just take it all too seriously.

Seahawk Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 True...the Commanche was a good example of that. I guess it just looks odd, but then the GW crew didn't put it on theirs and I haven't yet gotten my own :/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/256227-ultramarine-storm-talon-my-other-flyers/#findComment-3118147 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptn. Palladorus Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 A whole bunch of awesome pictures.Yep, that tears it, I've got to have a Stormtalon.40k isn't real... if it was we wouldn't have half off the made up cool stuff.I think your math's off, by my calculations at least 100% of 40k isn't actually possible.

Gareth Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 My maths isn't my strong point. I'm -10% sure of it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/256227-ultramarine-storm-talon-my-other-flyers/#findComment-3118249 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdavid86 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I dunno, they have ammunition that is, functionally, miniature missiles that can track towards targets and explode on contact. Sounds an awful lot like the Emperor's holy boltgun to me :unsure: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/256227-ultramarine-storm-talon-my-other-flyers/#findComment-3118396 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forza St. Pauli Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Absolutely stunning! These are by far the best painted Ultramarine flyers/vehicles I’ve ever seens. Kudos!

Kreon Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I was in my LGS this morning with the intent of either buying the 6th ed BRB or a Stormtalon... I decided to get the BRB so my roomie and I can get down to playing the new edition. These pictures have given me buyer's remorse. CURSE YOU STORMTALON!
