Hi! After working pretty much non stop on my blood angels I decided to paint something a little different. I've always loved the look of the raptors so decided to see if I could paint a squad up quickly and still make them look good. These would be more for gaming while my blood angels are more a show case army.

So let me know what you think. Any feedback is much appreciated

They look good, nice detail on them, weapons really look meaty and heavy.

Very well done!

Raptors are my favorite chapter and you have done them justice. Let's see some more!

The shading is done really well. I do feel the highlights can be upped a bit more (not too much though, that will ruin the more subtle shading).

The boy, I say, the boy is as sharp as a sack of wet mice...

Great work!
Remember they are sons of raven's guard and the skin's tone had to be just a little pale! ;-)
If you want highlight the armour, be careful because olive drab it's, as always, a "difficult" color!

sorry for my english...tomorrow will be better!!!

Very nice looking, the only thing I'd say would be it look cool if you painted the eyes on the un-helmeted guys. Apart from that small gripe 10/10.
