Do you want your own tyranid ravener?

I found this while searching a Halloween prop site.

Chapter Changing



So I've decided to change about 3000 pts of space marines from my current "made up" chapter to the Mortifactors chapter. Mine (the one on the left) wasn't too far off from Mortifactors anyway, so I didn't have to strip or reprime. Even the my chapter marking was a maltise cross with a skull in it, so all I need to do is paint over the cross. I though it turned out pretty decent.

I plan on using several chaplain models for actual chaplains, librarians and maybe even veteran sgt. for vet squads or sternguard.

Questions, comments welcome.

If Orks went to school in the fall...

This would be their big yellow bus!



Ok, It would probably be a battlewagon, but since I didn't just finish one of those I guess this will have to do.
Anyway, HURRAY! I finished it! Its magnetized pretty extensively so a lot of parts are poseable, I have his CC arm in a casual position in the above picture.





Here I moved it into more of a guard position.




And here is the WAAAAAGH! or attack position.



these are the structure point markers I made, painted to look like fire and smoke. As I said before in an earlier post, I think these will come in handy when the bullets start flying...


The three rockets, since they are a one shot weapon, simply remove one when you fire it, so its easy to keep track of your shots.



All of these parts are magnetized, making storage a little easier.
This was a great model to build, I had a lot of fun with it. Its size caused far more painting procrastination than I anticipated, but I got through it.
What I didn't do:
Grots- I left them off, just a personal preference (da mekboy has uver plans for dems anyway)
modifications- just the eyes really, this model didn't need much.

What I wish I'd done:
Magnetize the shoulder big shooter.
Make the back door open with hinges and a removable ladder. (its not on now at all, the way the ladder looked bothered me).

Thats all for now, comments always welcome!
