Pre Heresy (2nd Ed) Raven Guard

[nurglespuss]

And here is my Raven Guard Legionnaire (Mr Stabby ;p ), I've tried to keep his black very black (despite 3 highlights ;p ) - That green shoulder half looks an odd colour combo, but, thats the colour so go figure! Next up a Thousand Son, as soon as I can find a suitable head :)

Hope you like him :)

My only nit pick, is that I think the blades should be facing the other way lol

 

Other than that he looks pretty good! I always like seeing peoples take on raven guard, to see if they stick to the descriptions (about the armour being matte black and non reflective, almost absorbing the light)

Ha, cheers! Yes i did um and ah about the blades :P the black is a bit shiny (glazes) , will matte it with testors, cheers!

I'm actually fine with the blades; looks like he's focused on gutting and backslashes. Many, many different techniques with a knife, depending on the opponent.

 

Pretty, though a bit jarring when compared to the standard highlights you see nowadays.

 

EDIT: I know you were going for the ol' 2nd edition look, which you accomplished beautifully, but I can't help but wonder if he would have looked even more badass if he had been sealed in a matte spray...

I like the way the blades are postioned .Great job.

Thanks! He's more Van Damme than Segall ;p
