storm raven page
I decided i wanted one to complement my Grey knight Forces and although a new model would look and be amazing £50 is not something i have right now, so i decided to make my own out of leftover wood and oddments in the basement
these images show the wood was screwed in to the sawn base block and odd
i used a chopped up microwave meal box to make the wings and tail
on top of the model i placed some ariel connectors i had lying about. i decided not to use them in the end as they seemed to big and odd looking
i used filler and sandpaper to clean things up and to hide the imperfections
then used Dr Pepper lids for the engine bits and a wire connection hub on the side to mount the Hurricane Bolters (Guns). further the cockpit was made of more microwave meal plastic, (not a regular resource in our house)
last touch to this is the wings received the side of a strawberry box to add nice shape
hear is the more completed version with a nice lick of paint the job on the Dr pepper lids and the red stripe are nice additions. overall it has achieved the desired effect
im not convinced about the cockpit bit. i cant make it transparent. the guns need some nozzles to look more militaristic. i had the idea of using lolly sticks and the base needs some TLC
more updates to come.......
