Hi all!
I hope that you are all well. Today I am going to show more about my current project, The Raven Guard.
In my last post I had a look at the troop choices that I have assembled in preparation for the Raven Guard Legion in a Day project (which has unfortunately had to be delayed). Today I will be showing you a look at my Elite units.
Although not featured in this update, I will be doing a 10 man Tartaros Terminator squad like this above!
Here is a WIP of my Contemptor Dreadnought. This is a phenomenally beautiful model and the detail is brilliant. I have gone for the Autocannon and Chainfist combo as seen on the website. Unfortunately I am not very good at posing lol.
Here is a quick look at my veteran squad I am working on too. I am waiting on a few bits to be delivered to complete them. They will be transported in a Darkwing Pattern Storm Eagle Gunship in some of their deployments.
Finally for my Elites, here is a 5 man Mor Deythan squad. Again, these are stunning sculpts and the quality was really great (most of Forge Worlds newest stuff is). What do you think of them?
Once I have finished assembling the Raven Guard I will most likely return to assembling my Ultramarines while we wait for a day that the bunnies can all get together for the Legion in a Day project. This is also a benefit as I will be moving in the next few months and models take up less space assembled then they do in bags (well...FW kits do lol).
I am having a bit of a hobby-wobble at the moment as I am seeing a reduction in spare time and energy due to focusing more on the rehabilitation on my knee and weightloss, which has seen me attending gym 5 times a week. So progress is slow but steady.
Thanks for reading, check back soon for some more progress.

Pretty cool buddy :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see them painted - especially that awesome Contemptor *_*
The RG Contemptor is a really good looking model, God damn Forge World, why are you taking all of my money?
DeleteWhat weapons are you going for on the Mor Deythan?
ReplyDeleteHey Roger. I will be going for sniper rifles on these bad boys :)
DeleteOne of my 3 squads have sniper rifles, my other have combi-flamers and combi-plasmas.
DeleteHaving just got through a hobby wobble, I understand how frustrating it can be. Glad to see progress!
ReplyDeleteCheers Col. Yeah its frustrating but health is a little bit more important :D its not going to bd for long.
DeleteNo excuses Kaelo. Play like a champion!!!
ReplyDeleteI guess its all my fault! I keep him distracted :P
DeleteThat's how rumours start Lady Atia!
DeleteContemptor looks incredible, the detail on it looks really nice. Can't believe I haven't really noticed it before.
ReplyDeleteThe Mor Deythan are definitely nice sculpts but I find the price a bit off-putting; £50 for 5 power armoured marines seems a lot when most FW Terminator units don't even cost that much.
New ordinatus is finally up for preorder.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a large nine of old product may be going the way of the dinosaur... Assuming it's not an April fools.
Also the new left handed paint brush is out soon!
I don't think it would be legal to make this an aprils fool ...
DeleteI got (literally) the last RG MkIV dreadnought - some of the Orks stuff I wanted is gone too ...
I was making plans for a gargant and was relying on those weapons. Dang it!
DeleteOh so we agree the old "Gargatns came after the Orks saw Titans on Armageddon" fluff is no longer canon, right ;)? :P
DeleteI think Gargants were around before Ullanor. Recently listen to A Thousand Sons and I'm sure Magnus is described as facing one down on his own!
DeleteDarien, Atia is being a tease... She knows I believe that already.
DeleteHaha! :D
DeleteKudos on planning to field some Deliverers!
ReplyDeleteExtra points for having them ride an Outflanking Darkwing!
