Woot! Thrusters in front called it! lol
Now I'm getting excited, the thrusters were going to be the only part not easily converted in my MajorTom pattern chibi-hawk...
Great news on all fronts, thanks for sharing man!

The Chibihawk still doesn't look any better. It still appears to have no rear super-structure, with the tail and wings sitting out in space with only the smallest of connection points.
The BA Dread is wonderful though. A front chest piece for regular BA, Death Company and Librarian is a very nice touch. I wonder how hard it'll be to carve off all the Blood Angel symbols...

I would assume Landraider sized, as that way GW can release the Redeemer/Crusader Sprue as an upgrade, allowing people to equip it with Hurricaine Bolters.
Provided they don't come in the kit. And even if they do, it's probably a lot cheaper to include an existing design in a new mould, than to mould from scratch.

Well I doubt the 'Furioso Dreadnought' kit would have any GK bits in it, and the only icon I can see on the Chibihawk is an Aquila, so that's non-BA specific.

I'm pretty sure it comes with BA icons, as in the original pic. I'm pretty sure those icons aren't FW... Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

To be fair, the Stormraven isnt finished. I am liking it more, but I want to see it with the front cockpit on.
And the Furiosos kit will be my first dreadnought purchase.

Ah, thanks. That sounds pretty cool
I'm really hoping that when CSM get re-released we get a kit for that pre-heresy thunderhawk....What's it called.....I forget I can almost guarantee the next vanilla codex will get the SR, so I'm sure every codex will have something like it soon.

I'm not impressed with the Stormraven. There's a lot of conversions/kitbashes/scratchbuilt ones that look better.

now technically it doesn't even need wings to fly.... the wings only help with the back two engines in keeping it stable

same with the dread (the librarian parts at least, the regular and DC defiantly have BA marks on them)

It may not be a great model, but it opens tons of doors for converting to make it even better.

I notice 2 things when I look at the OP.
1.) The Furioso is covered in Blood Angel iconography.
2.) The Stormraven is not.
Coincidence? I think not. Grey Knights are on the horizon!

I am pretty sure this kit will be easily kitbashed with ven dread kit. Will just have to be careful trimming the front shoulders off. I will definitely be throwing this kit on some ironclad legs for more umph. Libby dread needs to look like the baddest dread on the field.
