I have a finished Dark Angels Stormraven. I've had this since the Stormraven was released, but now can field it legally as a Dark Angels. Let me know what you think.

Lovely shading, is that airbrush or by hand?

That is a very snazzy little ship.

Nice paintwork. Crisp. A little light on the green for my tastes, but really well done!

Solid job.

Thanks guys. I'll be posting a tutorial this week.

Yes, this was done with an airbrush.

Looks great!

I am going to have to finally get a Storm Raven and do it up in Raven Wing colors.

Thank You for inspiration!

Nice job. The art of airbrush. Some day I will enter into the Airbrush World, when I change House and don't be surrounded by supersonic ears.

You really should. It's a great tool, and the learning curve is not too high. I started by just mass priming and base coating my minis.

I never have the balls to paint greens or yellows, my blending with them is bad :( partially from being color blind I suppose

I love the salamanders and dark angels color schemas, very pretty.

One thing I would of liked to seen? Weathering/effects particularly around all the vents and metal. Either way, great job

Thanks. Totally understand.

As far as weathering, I do sometimes do it. My tanks have dust and dirt along the treads. In my mind, I feel the Dark Angels would keep their things in top order. Remember, "A moment of laxity can spawn a lifetime of heresy."

Now my 30k Death Guard. All the dirty and chipping and things.
