Johanhgg Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 After much consideration I have decided to create an raven guard army, beside my raptors. I may seem strange to focus on two armies with the same CT. They’re going to have different focus; raptors more shooty, RG more assault oriented. With that said. First biker-marine of many. http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e44/johanhgg/BD0F3803-BFAD-4EE0-B81A-63E51A9D9AE7_zpskps0jvd7.jpeg http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e44/johanhgg/118F5EC8-78AF-4F84-878D-E8904DC8318A_zpsneqhspsr.jpeg Kierdale, WAR and duz_ 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349307-raven-guard-5th-company/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBattenBurger Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 He looks great! I love the slight glow of the Plasma Gun, nothing too much but enough to notice it.

Johanhgg Posted August 3, 2018 Author Share Posted August 3, 2018 And now there is two of them. Much love to Raptors chapter but my heart belongs to Raven Guard. I’m thinking about picking up some aggressors to my force, which by the way consists of: -Shrike - 2x vanguard veterans w lightningclaws (50%painted) -1x vanguard veterans w dual chainswords (o%painted) - 2x assault squads w flamers, plasmapistols -10 hellblasters (0%painted) - bikesquad w plasmas,combiplasma (90%done) -bikesquad w meltas, combimelta (assembled) -veterans on bikes (0%done) - 3 tactical squads (assembled) - captain on bike (assembled) -storm talon (primed) - 2 razorbacks (assembled) http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e44/johanhgg/4B6214CA-98C4-438C-9011-08E100192A5F_zpso91reuve.jpeg duz_ 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349307-raven-guard-5th-company/#findComment-5137111 Share on other sites More sharing options...

golfdeltafoxtrot Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) Sadly that gives those of us too lazy for significant edge highlighting (i.e. me) a big problem. The drybrush and wash technique really shows up mould lines and carelessly clipped parts. I wasn't so anal about cleaning up my models before I started my RG!

Johanhgg Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 Happy about the progress; bike squad and one of the 9 hellblasters is done with 3 more glued on bases and awaiting undercoat. Im thinking about destroying my marriage a little more by picking up an repulsor. Never liked that model but its growing in me, and it would be Nice to add an option of mobility to the primaris besides sfts (mobility-ish) http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e44/johanhgg/56C8A218-81B4-474C-9E95-F8A4338C9BF6_zps7prdbjca.jpeg Race Bannon, duz_ and golfdeltafoxtrot 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349307-raven-guard-5th-company/#findComment-5137813 Share on other sites More sharing options...

golfdeltafoxtrot Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I’m using the drybrush and wash method for the armour and edge highlighting everything else. It felt too intimidating to edge all the armour, but it’s manageable with weapons and pouches.

Johanhgg Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 Servitor-mode succeeded with almost complete 2 hellblasters, a scoutbiker (resistance is futile, you will lower your shields and be prepared to be assimilated-style face) and a test model for salamanders (my hybris shattered legionish 40k project) question is: is the salamander armour ok-ish? It was super-fast done, which is good. http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e44/johanhgg/EE3641E5-97ED-4EE0-A039-F9329B62D0AA_zpsruczc3wn.jpeg duz_ and WAR 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349307-raven-guard-5th-company/#findComment-5138156 Share on other sites More sharing options...
