So I'm working on my cannoned-up Medevac counts-as stormraven/eagle for my Terranwing force and I note during a dry fit session that I may have inadvertantly drifted off-background

Queue wacky fiddle music and chinese-language swearing!





Anyway, then I finished fitting the wings.







This particular model has been documented with an in-air refuelling interface. This preventing it from orbital operations, but greatly assists in duration for atmospheric and sub-orbital operations. Note that the TL multi-meltas are kept away from the spike



The mount under the cockpit will be the MAchine Spirit interface and if it gets used as a Stormraven will also be the AC mount.

And here is what its supposed to look like:

I saw "Serenity" instantly thought "Firefly" and got VERY excited Needless to say I am desperately disappointed by Starcraft 2.

Although, if I ignore the Starcraft Connection it looks amazing! That is so so cool of a conversion!

Agree that it is an excellent conversion, but I too was hopeping for "Firefly" Serenity and was Disapointed by Starcraft reference. Great Skill! and Good work though.

It was a Firefly reference. Note the cockpit of the ship and where the OP said 'Queue wacky fiddle music and chinese-language swearing!'

Nice conversion though.

The first 2 pics are the Firefly reference, but I was actualy going for the wingéd version toward the end.

Hmm... Mal Reynolds as an Ordos Xenos inquisitor? He's certainly got a death-cult assassin on hand

Damnit, I've already got designs on a Mass Effect based Inquisition (or maybe Marine scout) unit.

Also Heartserenade - If you stump up for the Stormraven and Valkyrie models, I'd be happy to

I approve. There's not enough "Serenty" if 40k.

There is not enough Firefly in this thread.

Heh... this was from a while ago

Amazing what you forget about with a little baby about...

Without the wings I think its a pretty close fit to Serenity... it just wasn't what I was actually aiming for

Will commit heresy for Firefly.

(shiny conversion but we need a Jayne based Harker or something. or Zoey as some kind of commander, or...)

I'll get too work. Gorramit, now I have new projects...
