Llamahead - Immolator has been in plastic for at least 6 years, since the Witch hunters Codex came out in 4th edition.

Well, the good news is that the rain finally held up long enough for me to spraycoat the dreads, drop-pod and land speeder.

Prior to that though, i've been working on these bad-boys, 4 marine bikers and an attack bike. 2 of the bareheaded guys have space wolf heads with the ponytails/sideburns trimmed off.















Hopefully start painting the drop-pod over the next few days to try and get it out of the way with, hated painting the first two!

Those look great. Good use of the FW meltagun.

Need white arms on the sergeants dude.
Otherwise looks awesome so far

Finished painting the Drop Pod, and I think i can categorically state it is the last drop pod im ever going to make/paint, it has to be the most frustrating model to put together and then the most boring model to paint i've ever done... and now i've done three of the buggers!







Tomorrow I think i'll start on the land-speeder and get that done. Decided to redo the base of my first speeder at the same time so it will be nice to complete two birds with one stone.

Finished the Land Speeder. It wasnt until I was painting it that i realised i'd forgotten to add plasticard studs to the right shoulder pads of the crew, so i decided to just do some freehand numerals on instead... couldnt be bothered to strip the pads, add the studs while the crew were glued in place and then repaint them.

So here it is.







A shot with the other speeder. Also redid the base of the other one to match the new one.



Will start on the Dreads tomorrow maybe, dont know how much longer i can keep up all the edge highlighting though!

They look sooo good together like that, very cool

I always love to see some pre-heresy stuff on this site matter of fact I'm reading the horus heresy books right now

Dread 1 is now complete!

Although this now fills me with dread for doing the second one as it took a while to do!

Decided to do something a little special for his heraldry, hence the freehanded icon on his shin pad. Its meant to be a phoenix, which i thought was appropriate for a dread to signify him rising from death to fight on for the emperor. I think the freehand looks ok, certainly not something i'm going to do on every model, need to think of a second device for the other dread now.











Happy with how he looks, now just need to pluck up the willpower to start the second one.

Hope you guys like him.

This is a fantastic thread. I'm a recent convert to Raven Guard and your stuffs whetted my appetite for more and given me quite a few ideas for painting and modelling (or should that be modelling and painting! ) excellent stuff, keep it up!

Finished the 2nd dread, woot woot! This one has a frag cannon and meltagun, ready to kickass in the name of the emperor.







Close-up of my freehanded attempt at a griffon head for his heraldry.



Group shop with Dread 1 and some marines.



Got the unit of bikers that need undercoating and painting, and 5 more devastators that need assembling, but i might be put off by starting my Trollbloods Army for Hordes... decisions, decisions.
