Many of you have emailed about the general release of the TRU-Scale Storm Raven Extension kits. After some production delays, this kit is being produced very rapidly and we will have enough kits for a general release scheduled for Saturday September 3rd. The kit will sell for $18.50 and is composed of 9 components to extend the hull of the Games Workshop Storm Raven kit and add on a Grappling Harness for a Dreadnought.





Today our second complete miniature figure is released for sale.
Armana'serq - Warrior Priestess


The gods have always demanded worship and sacrifice but in return they grant their most zealous followers with supernatural strength and skills. Serqitet, goddess of the scorpion protects her followers through her warrior priestess. Armed with sword and pistol, Armana'serq leads her fellow warrior-priest into combat through stealth and subterfuge.


This unpainted 28mm scale pewter model consist of 6 components - body and 5 variant arms. A 25mm slotted base is included. Armana'serq is available here for $13.50

Look for our exciting TRU-Scale Storm Raven Extension kit next week!

Thank you so much for fixing the Fisher Price jet that is the Stormraven. I still remember how hard I laughed the first time I saw that model.

The true-scale kit single-handedly saves the storm raven for me. If I ever get one, I will have to get one of these kits to fix it.

Also, the space elf priestess is beautiful. Better than your first full figure by leaps and bounds.

Curious, but is that "Scorpion Priestess" composed of a separate head? I love the model but dislike helmetless heads. If so, I'm sold.

Irony: I don't play Space Marines, but I'm considering buying a Storm Raven JUST FOR that conversion set.

Working on the website day and night - migrating all the information and formatting photos, not so fun. The TRU-Scale Knights will be on the new site as well. I am hoping for the site to be up in 3 weeks or so.

Sorry, you would have to take some snips to the head. I am in the same boat with the Storm Raven, I have one painted Salamanders Green and waiting to be finished. Of course it includes our new kit and I hope they will allow all marines to use it.

The Stormraven kit is fine.

Crouching Scorpion? not so much.

Nice work. I'll have to pick up a couple of that conversion kit. Then someday down the line I'll actually buy a couple of Stormravens, but not even worth considering without that extension kit in hand first...

Wow, huge improvement to GW's Storm Raven model! Now it looks like an actual air transport worthy to carry the Emperor's angels of death into the thick of battle. Well done Chapter House!

My Stormraven conversion kits arrived today. Now I can build the suckers. So did the shoulder pads... which are metal. I thought they'd be resin. In light of that fact, you may see some orders from me in the future for other shoulder pads.

The reason GW makes their vehicle kits a bit smaller than realism would require is so they will fit on the tabletop. When you're playing on a 4'x6' table that is 25% covered in terrain that blocks line of sight (That's the 5th edition meta at my FLGS, I don't know about yours), do you really want a bunch of building-sized vehicles cluttering everything up?

That's all well and good warpcrafter, but none of it can explain away how much of a bad and unnatural-looking kit the Chibi-Hawk is.

It doesn't have a body. It just stops and has nothing from the wings back. Chapterhouse's kit fixes that in a way that makes it look like a mini-Thunderhawk, which is what a lot of people pictured it as.

There is an obvious fix for this whole problem. Make a 15MM Warhammer 40,000 game. It would be quick-playing like epic, but have much of the 28mm game's flavor. That way, the 28mm game could become a more detailed skirmish game, while those who would rather be a tabletop general will still have their own way to play, and everything could be tru-scale because of the scale's halving the general size range. (And no, I refuse to play epic, because I dislike pushing little grains of rice that are vaguely toy-soldier-shaped around the table!)

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely, a 15mm Version of 40k would be awesome, call it EPIC 2.0 or something. 15mm allows for some significant levels of detail not achievable on the old Epic Scale Minaitures, Tanks would also be a reasonable size and it would allow for major engagements using a combination of FOW style and EPIC Rules. Imagine an Ordinatus in 15mm...

EDIT - They may even be able to get TRUE SCALE in 15mm, with a nice size difference between Astartes and the Guard.

The problem in my opinion is that the existing kit looks stupid. Like a Super-Deformed flyer. This kit makes it at least look like an actual vehicle.

Love your storm raven kit.. Wish it was out a bit earlier but I still may get 2 of them..

I like the scorpion since I play Eldar.. er warrior priestess! However, I don't see an aspect warrior going to war without a helmet

But it's not an Aspect Warrior. It's a warrior priestess.

Long anticipated storm raven kit is welcome. Really like the elf priestess. Wasn't really considering adding any elves to my collection but I might have to make an exception now...

Oh, I forgot to the Storm Raven looks more like a flier now. Or rather it looks like the offspring of a threeway with the Pelican Aircraft (HALO) and the dropship from Aliens and a Thunderhawk. Still looks nice tho.
