Helloes everyone, here are some pictures of one of my ongoing projects, as the title reads its a Stormraven Gunship
Its my first time attempting to post pictures so I will ask you for some understanding if anything looks bad(or even fails to the greatest degree).
*Edit*There all fixed I think

Here is a sideview of the current work, the landing gear is more or less leveled so it can stand without the flying stand without any trouble


Topview, as you can see only one side sponson and small side wing has been added


A picture from below


A closeup on the sidesponson


The front with the twin-linked multi-melta and twinlinked assault cannon


The Bloodstrike missiles(2 mounted under each wing)


Additional notes about parts and etc.
I have used more or less a whole Valkyrie kit as base
I used a few extra bits from a Shadowsword kit(a few side plates that don't show up so good on these pictures)
The Twin-linked Assault cannon, its mounting and the side doors is from the Baal Predator kit and so is the sidesponsons(not the hurricane bolters)
The Hurricane bolters are from the Ironclad Dreadnought kit(you only get one per kit so 2 is required) and the same is true with the Hunter-killer missiles I used as Bloodstrike missiles
Twin-linked Multimeltas are 2 sidesponson multimeltas from the Leman Russ kit
Also added some- plasticard and greenstuff to fill gaps(still alot of work to do here)

I will post new pictures when I've progressed further.

Feel free to ask if I failed to explain some part of the work so far or if you want to ask something else about the project
Also please do comment and come with suggestions in what you think could be improved!

I added a small summary after the pictures.
Anyways I used a valkyrie as base, the "main" body is built as normal but the tailfin/wings has been mounted the other way around(with some modification on how the wings are attached) from the instructions and the cockpit has been been broadened with plasticard and put ontopt. The engines have been mounted in the wings(it were very annoying and time consuming to find a way do this with them pointing straigth back and not to the sides or up).
Then I grabbed the assault cannon, Sidesponsons and side doors from the Baal Predator and the hunterkiller missiles and hurricane bolters from 2 Ironclad Dreadnougths.
Then a few odd pieces from a shadowsword and my bitzbox to fill empty spaces.
