It's Omnio from Space Hulk. I just didnt use his storm bolter right arm, and cut a section out of his left arm to fit the lightning claws. Also there's the end of a teleport beacon on his back for his search light thingo

I've been a Deathwing fan for a while. Keep up the good work!!

Short story: 10 year old Land Raider, painted green with bone panels.
Plastic glued on DA extras when they were first released ages ago. Wanted to swap one or two but couldn't.
Paint was very think so I attempted to strip back with nail polish remover, wasn’t a perfect result so I did a bit of mud and scratches to make it look deliberate.

Pleased with the outcome considering what it once was!

Fantastic. Wish I had the time/patience to produce models like this. Most of my friends don't paint their models at all, so my slightly above table quality models stand out at the local level, but not like these.

Is that tech marine holding the auspex backwards? Looks hard to read

Great job
Lovely to see those storm bolter barrels drilled

I am very impressed with your ability! I started out as a DA player and puled out some of my old deathwing and wow, you make mine look pathetic. They look like the kid who grabbed the $2 clearance costume for halloween and tried to pass himself off as a deathwing termie!

Looking great!

Naught!!! Mad bone colouring, but could use some lighter highlighting on edges

Few more guys finished or just about.

Belial.
Converted from Scibors SF Angel Knight

Awesome!

The Belial model is really nice, but the shield could do with a little colour, or you risk the mini being a bit monotone

Overall, beautiful models

Yeah I knew he wasn't quiet right and was looking for advice.

Here are some photoshop schemes what do you guys think.

I really like the version with the black robe with white wings, gives it that focal point on the model

Nice work. Very impressive!

Just two (very minor) comments

1) Some of the mold lines could do with some cleaning up before painting (for example the chaplains leg).

2) It might be the camera but it looks like some of the paint might have been a bit to thick and could possibly do with a bit of thinning, or a smother brush stroke? Its a difficult to tell if it is brush strokes in the paint or just where your cammera is having problems with the white.

Other than that very nice. Did you make the bases? Its something I have never been good at and am always looking for ideas.

Personally I quite like the green robed angel of death with white wings and a gold or red halo, black shield (pre heresy colour and gold trim.

Ok here's my last ditch effort before totally repainting his shield. I think having it coloured is just too outlandish and cartoonish for him.

Anyway I kind of like it:

Well done on the bone white armours.
I love the warm feeling you captured.
The gold parts are something I think you could improve abit. they are fine as they are, but looking at your skills I think you can do better.
Base with black, add tin bits then finally gold.

I myself paint white models, and use gryphon sepia as a wash too. though I mix it with matt varnish to lower the wash viscosity. This gives a slight blending effect.

Bought this on impulse the day it was released... despite collecting Dark Angels.
Finally got around to doing something with it.
Of all the companies that could potentially field a Stormraven I thought Ravenwing seemed the most appropriate.

Was fun to paint and model!

That bone colour is a bit weird, but I kind of like it.

Well done.

I like the Scibor mini for Belial it works really well. I also think the shield with the black robed skeleton angel looks best, if you did a DARK green robe then I would prefer that but the greens you have as an example are just way too bright imo.

Your Ravenwing SR has inspired me to finally pick up another SR and make it for my SW. Yes, I know I can't use it in anything but Apocalypse games but I luckily enjoy the occasional Apoc game plus it will look awesome I think.

Great work overall, I look forward to seeing more, especially since the only DW armies I see in my area are not painted as DW nor do they use DA successor or DA iconography

*Edit: Quote Fail on my part...

I like the shield as the original. It looks like it's sculpted on there, and gives a nice "rock face" shield feel to it, rather than a painted heraldic shield.

The Stormraven looks Great! A very smooth clean job there!

I don't like this thread. . . I LOVE IT! The bases are awesome, specially the face one. Loving the stormraven!

Keep it coming!

I love it! Awesome job.

Interesting idea on the RW SR, might have to steal that for mine. I was thinking green, as the guys inside would be green, but it is a bit land speeder-ish.

Loving the texture on the Terminators.

Thanks for all feedback guys!

However everyones failed to note the tail of the Stormraven is on backwards!... including me lol

Ripped it off and glued it on the right way now >.>

Search your feelings, you know your stormraven and sammael want it too.
