Brother Captain Lucian Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Hello! Iv finally finished my first "big" project in my new IW HH army. The Fire Raptor, which imho is one of the coolest FW fliers made so far. It's lacking a real base, but as I haven't gotten the materials I need for that. So just imagine it with a landing bay themed base, cold iron, rivets, drains, pipes etc. I have also, after seeing my own images - fixed a few spots where I missed with the oil wash *click for larger pictures* I hope you like it!

The_Chaplain Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 A mighty find beast you have put together and painted here brother. Tell us, how was it to put together? Easy, average or a nightmare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Captain Lucian Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 Thank you. I would put it at average. The side panels were a tad warped, but nothing warm water and patience couldn't fix. Otherwise it was straight forward to assemble. And a joy to paint.

Isiah Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 It looks excellent indeed. Hazard stripes are good and wide - nicely proportioned for the model. Cheers I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Truly superb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrahawk Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Nice birdie you got there! I'll echo others, the hazard stripes are really well executed and make this model stand out very nicely. You'll have an outstanding army, when you paint other vehicles with this same method. Maybe a Sicaran? Eh? Eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrannosaurus Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Looks brilliant, nice work. Can I ask where you got your paint station from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Captain Lucian Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 Thank you all! Isiah - I'm truly glad that people like them, as they were quite a headache to get right.. Yellow is such an unforgiving colour. Terrahawk - Well, I'm Christmas broke for now, so no new orders till next month - BUT then I'm going to order a Sicaran Venenator and a Legion Basilisk.. and some marines, to assist the 10 I'm currently working on. :) tyrannosaurus - Its a Tamiya Painting Stand Set (I got mine from snmstuff.co.uk), its very handy and just large enough to support the Fire Raptor.
