Hmm, shall have to pick up that LR kit, looks very snazzy! The turrets are also very cool looking and should be perfect for my custom Rhino variant
I shall have to place an order as soon as these sets and the new jetbike comes out. Hurry though because I am restraining myself from placing a FW order also!

No.
In fact, if you take the time to do a comparison, you will see that they sculpted their own Power Fist and added two very cool looking blades to it.
Opinions. They can go either way.

Awesome. Just ordered 6 of the razorback turrets and 2 of the LR conversions. Good stuff man.
Edit: Crap, didn't see the stormraven conversion kits. Would have picked up 3 of those, too. Oh well, some other time.
Edit: Since i'm here and you're here, why with every order do I keep getting coupon cards with no code on them? I've ordered a few times from you and just keep getting coupon cards with no info on them.

I see it this way... jetbikes will be on flight stems, and using them as bikes seems counter to what cannot be denied as a skimmer. There are no rules I know of for space marine jetbikes. But put one of these bad boys, or even two, on a 60mm base? throw on the proper guns? Hell yeah, awesome for a pre-heresy army to represent jetbikes and still use proper codex rules (which im not against house rules for jetbikes, but a lot of folks like to stick to whats in the codex, yes?)
Also, if my knowledge of canon isnt off, there were no land speeders during the heresy, but there were jetbikes.
Seems like a solid way to do that to me!

It´s an early cast of this thing I sculpted:
Guess a proper cast with some decent paint job will look more as what it´s supposed to look like

Nice work as usual! I actualy really like the lightning claws, it's always good to have options to use for our converting whether you are a huge fan or not, I shall be looking to obtain some as well as the turrets that fit the razorback! very clean sculpts and they look good on the vehicles too.
Nice job guys!

It looks much better in the green, even if it is still a little rough. I think part of the problem I previously had with it was that the photo editing left the edges very ragged (it looks that way on the pictures of all the other product too).
For actual criticism of the helmet, some of the arrows look crooked, and I think the last two on each side are too much. Also, I believe it would look better with only one vent on top, instead of the two it currently has.
Please keep in mind it's much better than I can personally do, I'm just offering my feedback on it.

Have just seen the Jet bike in the flesh, KROMLECH is better. Why? Because the Bolters on the CHS one are smaller than a RT era Bolter, seriously small. They look like a cheap last minute addon.
The Razorback's turrets are an interesting option, but I'm pretty sure most people could make their own with a normal razorback and some small magnets.
There are a few people on Dakka that produce Quality stuff in resin cheaply. Check out MACHINATOR, he's very good. I've bought his stuff and it's excellent.

You are right, it looks a little rough. I guess that´s the best I could do back when I did it and yeah, in retrospect I agree there should be one vent. I´ll keep that in mind and make better stuff next time.

How about we don't derail this further and we all just accept that people have different opinions, shrug our shoulders, and move on.

The green for that helm doesn't appear to be done justice by that initial casting t'would appear. I like the idea of it, has a nice "Nemesis the Warlock" kind of vibe to it.

There were some difficulties in the initial casting of it but hopefully Nick has or will sort it out.
Would be a bummer if it shouldnt make it as it took quite some time to sculpt.

@Pyriel - I have no idea what you are on about. I put my opinion of their product up because I saw it in the flesh and my immediate thought was "Why are the Bolters so small?" that is exactly what this forum is for? Discussion.

Now, I do like your Rback turrets, but in the pictures, the plasma guns especially look a little wobbly. Can you possibly provide some stills on how the magnets actually attach?

Not any more, no. There are quite a few kits that include them.

They're not at all a flat surface, the Blood Angel ones that I specifically mentioned wrap around onto curved surfaces.

I love the threads showing your up and coming stuff but do me a favor and either update the first page or edit the title to show what page the new stuff is on. I would prefer to see the first page updated with dates show when what was added similar to what Kroot does with the rumors.

Off Topic: I'm curious as to who is making them as well. On a side note, those are some fantastic home-built True-Scale marines in your gallery Alpharius. If I'm not mistaken, some of those look like resin castings. Very nice true-scale terminator green too.
On topic: I'm stoked to have some nice right handed not-lightning claws that are easily convertible to power firsts, much easier to convert than lightning claws, and cheaper than buying real power fists from bits sites. Get to keep my money in country too. Damn shame the manufacturer isn't truly local.

So I caught up quite a bit on the outstanding SR kit orders.
Now I just need Razorback Turret kits, more wheeled chimeras, Storm Ravens as well as Warrior Boneswords and Female Imperial guard cast to come in (I expect next week).

P.S.
Just received an invoice for incoming cast, only thing missing is the Wheeled Chimera kits and Female guard, I should see everything else in next week for shipping out on outstanding invoices (still not enough stock on the newest kits to have "in stock" on the website).
