Also if you buy your Storm raven from a store on ebay that i know of its $64.35 instead so maybe you could do both Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307570-stormraven-or-paints/#findComment-4041143 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Aegis Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I would personally get the Raven, and some red primer for now. When I started I had the battlebox and a librarian, and played with them primed until I could afford the proper paints. No one really minds playing against at least a primed army.

Ovidius Incertus Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Agreed. Get the mini and spring for a red primer or something and get the vehicle on the table. You shouldn't need an 80 dollar paint range to do an army if you get some solid basic paints.

Emprah2508 Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Also I have a Raven already with multi melta assault cannon and hurricane bolters. I was talking to the guy in gw and he said this the best way to run it. What do you guys think?

Xenith Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Search for storm raven load outs in this forum, it's been discussed many times. But yes, that;s my fave loadout, + Hurricanes :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307570-stormraven-or-paints/#findComment-4041385 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucumon Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 More Stormravens is always the best choice. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307570-stormraven-or-paints/#findComment-4041509 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bukimimaru Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Regarding the loadout, you might consider mixing it up for the second one. You've got one with a multimelta, assault cannon, hurricane bolters; a good infantry killer, why not give your second raven a different role? My Seond Raven is build for Tank / MC / Elite hunting, so: Lascannon, Multimelta, Storm Missiles. I can take either one depending on my opponent's army, or both in larger games to cover different battlefield roles.

Vel'Cona Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Ah, the age old "do I want more paint for my existing shinies, or more shinies?" For me, I really hate deploying unpainted models so if I'm out of paints I have to prioritize that. That said, you gotta go with your gut on questions like this.

Oirghialla Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 If you don't mind mixing paints, you could buy non-GW paints for cheap. I got a set of acrylic paints from Reeves for $16 from which I can paint just about any color (and I honestly think their quality it at least as good as GW). They've lasted me 5 years. You can then get both a full set of paints and a Stormraven off ebay with the money that you have.
