Most welcome

I'm thinking of using the Hawk cockpit on the Talon like the one in the photo and using the Talon cockpit on the Hawk. It just makes more sense to me that a fighter would would need the wider view afforded by the Talon's cockpit but I can imagine the view port being ok for a ground attack craft. doing strafing runs with the extra armour helping to protect the pilot from enemy flak.. On a side note to achieve that exact look on the Stormhawk it will take a razor saw to both cockpits and a bit of greenstuff to cover the seams between the join, hopefully the two cockpits will allign with minimal effort.

I just worry that the Talon cockpit won't be compatible with the new nose weapons. It likely will with some work (maybe none at all), so I am not too concerned. I plan on making a Stormhawk the command flyer to my two Stormtalons.

Going by the sprue pic posted in News and Rumours, both kits use the same cockpit, it's just the canopy and the weapon mount that changes.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689416/8626036.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689416/8626036.page GMT Re:Photoshop: Alternative Stormtalon/Stormhawk build options from new kit

Actually, it is different. It is longer and replaces the entire part that the pilot sits in. The weapon mounts are completely different too. It is possible some parts are reused, but a lot is different.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689416/8626227.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689416/8626227.page GMT Photoshop: Alternative Stormtalon/Stormhawk build options from new kit
That said, it's massively better looking than the Stormtalon.

A ripe candidate for magnets and light conversion to give it the option to be both.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689416/8626233.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/689416/8626233.page GMT Re:Photoshop: Alternative Stormtalon/Stormhawk build options from new kit

Nope. Here's the Stormhawk sprue:




No cockpit on there - it uses the Storm Talon sprues for that.
