TheGodOfNothing Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Do eeeet! I'm going to make another as soon as I get another drop pod for the fins.

Warsmith Aznable Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Just an update on the Heldrake conversion. I took off the spikey bits, put the missiles on it to represent Meteoric Descent strikes, and started painting: The scheme is based off Roy Fokker's VF-1J from the Macross/Robotech anime. The stripes were perpetrated with popsicle sticks for guides...

Warsmith Aznable Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 Cheers buddy, any more updates on yours? Love your conversion, very tidy looking  Thanks (and to everyone else who liked it)  I probably won't do any more on it until next weekend. I expect to have it done by this time next week, and will post several angles of the finished paint job.

nurglez Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Think it could do with some spikes, or blades. To represent the swoop attack thingy. Â Edit: ah the missiles represent that, fair enough then :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/261891-heldrake-conversion-logtutorial-thread/page/2/#findComment-3313857 Share on other sites More sharing options...
roooooot Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Nice! Â I was toying with the idea of also doing a HellTalon conversion at some point in the next few months, this is good inspiration.

Reichfaust Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Saw your Stormtalon and Forgefiend in the Tau thread and followed it back here. Great stuff! Can't believe how simple yet effective that Stormtalon conversion is with the raven wings. Looks incredible! And loving the paintjob too :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/261891-heldrake-conversion-logtutorial-thread/page/2/#findComment-3334455 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zyl- Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I finally just massed the parts I'll need to build myself a drake, so I'll be sure to take some photos and stop by this thread. My ideas are unlike the rest of the sweet stuff I've been seeing here, but I know somone already thought of what I'm going to do. Â GW boss: So.. we need a gimmiky flier to sell with the new chaos codex. Ideas? GW employee: Let's make a rhino conversion kit. Those never get old. GW boss: We can sell it for 30 quid and the rhino seprate. Genious. (all the yes men nod their approval with a resounding "hurumph") Â Seriously.. I'm uber suprised if this didn't happen at some point.

Warsmith Aznable Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 I've been delinquent in posting up the finished conversion. I wanted to wait until I replaced the white cardboard backdrop so I could get decent photos. Gentlemen, the "Hell Storm attack fighter" in all its painted glory: I am no good at painting the Skull & Crossbones device... I've got everything I need for his wingman, and soon the squadron will be flying without proxies! Definitely making a third, but not sure when I'll have the Mechanicus resources for it.

Chaeron Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 The rest of the paint job is fantastic - I'd probably just paint over the skull and crossbones!
