Ok guys so I'm back with my latest model! Its my first vehicle in a very long time and my very first landspeeder. I decided to man this speeder with 7th COY Tactical Marines rather than assault marines as I figured specialized speeders like typhoons would be kept with the 7th company. Anyway takes a look at the pics below and please let me know what you think as im always learning One thing Im not too happy about are the engines so I may go back to them at a later stage!

I love it. It's nice to see somebody go to a company instead of a regular paint scheme.

The green on the heavy bolter clip is throwing it off for me. Also you have tactical marines driving your speeder lol

Looks good but could use a bit more colour, something like red tips on the rockets, etc.

Funny, I actually like that.

What this model really needs is some Raven Guard symbols. Currently there are no chapter markings on either the vehicle or the crew. It could belong to any chapter with a black paint scheme.

Well 7th company of every codex chapter is a reserve company composed of all tactical squads, this company is also tasked with the use of landspeeders, which is why I crewed it with tactical marines lol

Oh I should have mentioned Im waiting on Raven Guard transfers so none of my miniatures have chapter symbols yet

looks great, If you have any decal medium you should put a couple you coats of those transfers. It really helps blend them in to the paint job. Also I found that after you use the medium, matte finish will blend them to a seamless effect.

Thanks for the advice battlematt! I was wondering what I could do about the shine on the transfers so I might just try that
