Kastor Krieg Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I hate the flying brick. I'd much rather buy and put together the flying fridge, AKA Puppy Head. Did anyone see conversions / dimensions / other data anywhere that'd enable to get the 'wolf as close as possible, game-wise, to the 'raven, while retaining the same "chassis"?

LutherMax Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I too prefer the Wolfy flyer. Not sure how close you could get it to the Storm Raven. I'm planning to proxy an FW Storm Eagle myself.

Kastor Krieg Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 Bwuh, if only I had the monies for Storm Eagle / Fire variant. Sniff.

Deschenus Maximus Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Er, the Raven is ugly but with a bit of conversion can be made to look alright. I just don't see how the Stormwolf could ever be made to look not-stupid. But to each his own I guess.

They can turn into swans with a bit of effort. This actually from this site but I lost the thread it belongs to.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 I could possibly be biased... I think if you removed all SW iconography and added a few scrolls and flourishes, possibly add a set of larger front rudder/wings. After than, there isn't much to the fuselage that is specifically SW oriented.

They can turn into swans with a bit of effort. This actually from this site but I lost the thread it belongs to. That's pretty impressive, but it was likely quite labour-intensive. You can make it look decent enough without doing such extensive mods.

TheHarrower Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Man, I hate the wolf flyer. The Stormraven definitely grew on me. I added winglets to the front of mine and it looks a lot better.

ThatOneMarshal Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 I heard there is the chapter house extension kit but I would rather buy a storm eagle since they cost similar.

There is, here: http://chapterhousestudios.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=85_78&product_id=200 I'm not sure it offers a vast improvement aesthetically, it's more that it makes it look like it could actually carry 12 models!

Mate, the Stormraven is not a flying brick. That's the wolf flyer. Looks like a brick with small, under-developed wings. The SR at least has some resemblance to a Thunderhawk.

Soulshade Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Ever wondered what the love child of a Stormraven and Stormwolf would be? Well my friend did this for his Greyknights http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b98/Corai/SR4_zps50254e74.jpg http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b98/Corai/SR1_zps531f4d45.jpg He calls it a 'Broadsword' pattern Raven. I prefer it, but its not a cheep conversion and the other one (Raven body, wolf wings) is an abomination Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300927-stormwolf-as-proxy-for-stormraven/#findComment-3900911 Share on other sites More sharing options...
knife&fork Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Mate, the Stormraven is not a flying brick. That's the wolf flyer. Looks like a brick with small, under-developed wings. That's why I like the SW flyer. It's a large skimmer (check the belly) with fat engines and tiny control surfaces, it doesn't pretend it's an airplane.

GrunTeufel Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 It reminds me of a viper fighter from Battlestar Galactica. Nice paintjob too.
