So I started out with a Raven wing bike I got off of a friend who had just put it together and primed it black and kinda left it alone. I have started converting it to make it look really cool and I hope you guys like it as much as I do. Sorry the pictures are not the greatest because I am only taking them with my iPhone.

That is the bike I started with.

A picture of the forks before putting it all together. (they are made of of brazing rod)

The forks put onto the bike, but before the handlebars and guns put on. I had to strip the paint off and re-glue the bike back together because the seams were annoying me, I ended up having to use some green stuff anyway.

Built bike and starting the green stuffing process, more pics will be up later as I have to wait for the green stuff to dry to file it down and re-prime the model.

looks awesome! Ive been really wanting to do this, now I have a visual aid to help me along with it!

Nice, Looks a lot better than the original model in my opinion.

This the the model I am going to use for the chaplain.

This is him put together and base coated Chaos black.

A fresh coat of primer.

I thought it needed something, and this just turned out to make it look more Dark angels like.

I started to base coat the bike and this is the left side. On the bright side it still fits on the original base.

The right side.

Oh and I figured a side by side comparison would be a great way to show how different they look .

Getting closer to the finished product. I decided that since it's an interrogator-chaplain that he needed robes.

Having the wings all the way down looks...weird. Whynot leave them way up with the long forks sticking past? Is that really what choppers look like?

I put them on down so low because when I looked at them when they were up top they looked completely out of place. However I do see what you are saying, however I like the way it looks in person. If only I was a better painter.
