Corvinvs Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I'm glad to present the last addition to my Raven Guard army. The StormTalon :D http://legio-x.ru/ts/40k/rg/my/stormtalon1-finished-w.jpg Weapon system is fully magnetized and we can use all four weapon from the box. For the moment I installed Skyhammer missile. The FastAttack symbols is made in PreCodex RavenGuard's style. The base is not decorated yet, I think about best way for made it in common army style. I hope you will like my little bird B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunThirster Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Looks great man. Love the icon painted on the tail, that is just pure win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Great stuff! The tail icon is really well done. You moved the front undercarriage so it's not on the turret, right? Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 THAT'S IT ... I'm buying one. You guys make it look a lot better than the GW article :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corvinvs Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 Thanks guys :lol: Yes, you are right: additional to tail movind I moved front undercarriage to side "sponsons", and I also filed little bit front turret for made it not so thick and heavy.

Disruptor_fe404 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Did you actually extend the tail, or did you just attach the vertical parts of the tail further back? Because if it's the latter, eureka! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinvs Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 The tail wasn't extended. The vertical parts were cutted of and moved further back, yes. On following photo you can see non-painted version and can find joints on the end of the tail. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4BjD9GNfhX4/T9mPzwYk0YI/AAAAAAAAAiY/coul9eTKH2Q/s1600/120614-4-w.jpg Here you can find more detailed pictures of the gunship in building progress. The text is on russian, but pictures are universal language for worldwide <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Looks great! Are you leaving the canopy off so people can see the Techmarine pilot? If so how will you be sure it won't fall off/get broken? More importantly how did you magnetise the weaponry? I need to finish painting my Stormtalon...

Disruptor_fe404 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Thanks for the link and the pics. The pictures are indeed a universal worldwide language! And thanks for showing me the simplest way to make the tail look good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinvs Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 Are you welcome ^_^ Now I going to buy liquid green stuff for fill joint's places with more accuracy. And about canopy: I don't worry about fall: the gunship stays in my book's stand usually. For the game I will leave it at home ^_^ For magnetizing I will make some pictures, hope it will be helpfully, it's relative difficult for describing.

Chaptermaster Graymantle Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Very cool looking Storm Talon. Love the conversion and the emblem on the tail wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhg033 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 very nice. paint work if very crisp love the conversion work done. my only nitpick is that 'i would have' made the landing gear retractable and had it up for flight - obviously personal preferance here B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJB Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Beautifully done, truly excellent job! How did you do the black? My attempts haven't been the greatest - yet yours looks so clean and tidy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
