I like this a lot better than the quickie conversions made by just re-arranging the Valk parts...like others posted above, the first thing I said to myself when I saw your model was "Hey, look at the mini Thunderhawk!"

Looks good. The Cheltenham GW has one that is built similarly using the bottom section of a valkyrie the same like that in the same way but instead of the plasticard parts they used the top half of a Rhino

Some work in progress pictures...


I was thinking of going with red...


Assault ramp down!


Hurricane pattern bolters... I was thinking of hanging them under the forward wings whit magnets, technically not a sponson-mount but that would be to big to put anywhere on the bird


Assault cannons... one under each wing. mounted with magnets so I can change them out for other load outs


could this work as a multimelta if i shave of the most obvious flamer bits?

Lascannons and hevy bolters will come from some leftover guad heavy weapon teams and I will use the missile launcher from the Valkyra kit.

I think you are going to have a hard time making that flamer look like an MM. I was thinking of doing the same thing but they just look too different you should just by one on ebay

Looks great, I was wondering how you did the depressed holes on the model. Did you use a drill bit or some type of punching tool?

Eh, better than anything I could ever do with plasticard. Personally I'm not a fan of the chunky blocky look even though I know it's the Imperial way. Still I salute and pay respects to one helluva piece of modeling work. I look forward to seeing future builds.

the weathering might be a little to much... but I want it to look like it just have dropped down though the atmosphere and the paint being striped of by the heat... what do you think?

No progress on the weapons yet... to much painting to be done whit first

Could you post some reference pics next to rhinos or valk or something?

Otherwise it looks alright.

I dont think weathering fits with the Stormraven. These ships are the prize possession of the tech marines. They're not just gonna let them fall apart and look like gak.

Plus, you dont think they'd have heat resistant paint in 40k?

Did you actually do any edge highlighting?

whit that reasoning all vehicles in the chapter should look brand spanking new all the time, since they all are prized possessions of the chapter... so no more weathered look
They can repaint and pamper it after each combat mission

yes but it don't show on the photo fore some reason...
