Thought I'd post my conversion of the Blood Angels new transport the Storm Raven. It is mostly built from
the IG Valkyrie model. I used some plasticard but most of the kit is the Valkyrie. It is a work in progress,
Any input, suggestions welcome. Also trying to figure out what type of crane/grapple to use for the
Drednought that is going to be located behind the hull.

Looks nice, sort of Thunderhawkish in the front area, however it appears to be too heavy in the nose section compared to the back, perhaps make a round area where the Dread aims below the ship?

Shouldn't the armour plating on the 2 engines be facing out instead of in?

lol not that it really matters cause apart from that it looks awesome.

Pretty clever. It does look out of proportion though - maybe wider wingspan?

i agree with dakkadood

Like what I said, work in progress. I do welcome the comments. Trying to add more on it, I am still waiting for a couple of bits that I ordered through ebay since GW does not sell bits of any value any more. Thanks for mentioning the plating on the engines, I had to do that to cover up how I mounted it, I do plan to put plating on it either with plastic card or look for stuff in my bits box. Also am thinking of placing magnets on the back hull to correspond with a magnetized plastic dread. Still trying to figure out a proper crane/clamp piece.

Here is the latest update for my conversion. I am still trying to figure out how to make a crane/hoist attachment for the dreadnought.










Thanks for looking, hope it gives you guys ideas till the official model gets made

Cool.
