I'm building my GK army, and one (or two) of my units are going to be Interceptors - I really don't like the Storm Ravens - I might make my own.....*cough* Forge world *Cough*

Any way.... I really dislike the current model, just kinda standing there - So i've begun some converting. My Interceptors at the moment have cloaks and hoods thus far (a mix of green stuff and Dark Angels bodies) and are looking alot more menacing! But.... I want to have a few that are part way through teleporting.... So what do you think they look like when this happens.

Some ideas are glowing orbs surrounding them.... Another idea is having them hovering a few cms off the ground as if they are being 'lifted up'.

I'm keen to hear what you guys think it looks like, and then how I can model that....

They disappear.
Reappear with a thunderclap.
Maybe the teleport pack glows a bit before they jump.
Otherwise not much, they are walking forwards then poof they are walking forwards a couple of hundred metres in another place/direction.

I like to think that they open up a warp rift and step from one place to the other...

I dislike the idea the just 'jolt' around the battle field.

They are suppose to be moving via the warp - so..... Without having daemons every where what does 'the wrap' look like?

How can I post pics - I've got one done

Moving through it, not taking it with them.

Yea, but is it feasible to model it?

Not really...
You could make the pointy bits glow slightly or have lightning shooting out of them to make it look like it is doing something but apart from that nothing much.
