Hey all, Just updating on my Blood Ravens army, I've added a Land raider (90% completed), a Librarian with terminator armour and a Tactical squad. Just would like an opinion on the progress on painting and C&C

Firstly, The Librarian, i enjoyed the model - only had a few hiccups but the finished product was good. Im dissapointed in the face, i thought i could do better. Things i am proud of is the lion cloth, staff and the highlighting on the blue armour, so pics away (oh i got the SS idea from Grey Deaths tutorial and one of my first attempts at GS)!

Side Shot


Another Side Shot, vox meaning power in latin (i think)


Pic of the Staff (tried to go with a red/white marble effect which turned out pretty decent)




Ok, now for the Objective Markers which took about 3 seconds to make/paint (from left to right: Lost Armour, Sacred Script, Extra ammo)




And Some WIP of the tactical marines


And my fav poses of the group



Strange how the internet pics up mistakes that i miss ><, anyway thanks for looking

Edit: Added 2 pictures, removed one

Good job! Nicely painted. I like the libby very much.

thanks for the comment

I enjoyed what you've done so far. Cant wait til the tac squad gets painted up.
Ive always been a fan of the Blood Ravens and it's always good to see more examples of them (for when I make some of my own...)

Thanks for the motivation, there are other great blood raven people on here, for more examples go to role-player's Blood Ravens blog.

I'll painting the tactical squad right now

I've been sending pics of your stuff to a friend of mine who plays Blood Ravens in an attempt to get him inspired enough to paint again.

good job! I like the colors you used on the staff.
