These look 300% better and I want to copy it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5145175.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5145175.page GMT My Storm Talon Conversion WIP photos but er,.. got a bit carried away. Not had so much fun assembling something in AGES.

What ill do is grab the instructions and do a guide on what i cut and where, taking photos of the manual so you can see what i did.

Fingers crossed that'll help you out ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5148616.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5148616.page GMT My Storm Talon Conversion really nice work on this.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5148841.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5148841.page GMT Re:My Storm Talon Conversion DA flyer after looking at your coversion. I'd have to get some longer wings oand extend the tail maybe. but That's cheaper than spending another $60-70 on the DA flyer. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5150853.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5150853.page GMT My Storm Talon Conversion ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5153802.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5153802.page GMT My Storm Talon Conversion
Now that I've seen your pictures, I do like the idea of removing the lower stabilizer from the tail and will probably do that to mine. As for the empty turrent, I'm still mulling over my options but will probably grab some sort of sensor array (like from a Predator) or something to jam in there.

Still, good job. I like what you've done.

I have literally no idea what you are trying to say here....]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5878540.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5878540.page GMT Re:My Storm Talon Conversion IMO, the Nephilim/Dark Talon fighters of the newer DA release are far better looking and really do fit the aesthetics of the Space Marines, whilst simultaneously appearing to be at least aerodynamically capable. Pity it's just the DA who use them... :(

That said, this thread has kind of inspired me to do a bit kit-bashing between a Dark Talon and a Storm Talon - excellent work! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5879362.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5879362.page GMT Re:My Storm Talon Conversion

Why would you do that? Because the nephilim arleady looks like a combination between a Stormtalon and a Thunderbolt.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5882071.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5882071.page GMT Re:My Storm Talon Conversion
A) Nephilim fighters can only be used by the DA. I don't play the board-game, but I'd like my army (Salamanders) to be fairly consistent with the fluff ie. No Nephilim fighters. However, I can pass of a converted Storm-Talon as just an example of the Salamanders techno-forging prowess.

B) There's features of both the Storm Talon and the Nephilim that I like. For Example, whilst I prefer the airframe's greater length and sleekness of the Dark Talon and the larger wings, I prefer the engine and weapon mounts of the Storm Talon.

Really it's to each his own. I rather suspect that had GW released the Nephilim for all chapters I would have plumped for that, but the above conversion has convinced me that kit-bashing a Storm Talon is feasible. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5882575.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/498725/5882575.page GMT Re:My Storm Talon Conversion

I would just use the nephilim mini with all the DA iconagraphy replaced with Salimanders stuff.
