Kaelo Rylanus; Raven Guard Drop Pod

Good evening Bunnies!

Tonight we are going to have a look at my Raven Guard Drop Pod. I have used the Forge World transfers to break the black up.


These pictures are from a deployment on the scorched agri-world of Hamir-Planus. The Raven Guard were deployed to strike quickly to stop Xenos filth from burning and destroying much needed produce for the pending Karrus Sector compliance. With lightning fast coordination, between Corax and the Wolf King, the Raven Guard and the Rout were able to destroy the alien threat and save the majority of the planets refineries and vast farmlands.


It is a really nice kit but a ball-ache to put together lol. Especially if you want the 'doors' to open.


Here it is with my favourite alpha strike unit. Useful for taking down enemy armour (which I don't field a lot of with the Raven Guard.



I like the hazard stripes around the door seals. It is a kit with a lot of fiddly detail bits and I think that the addition of the stripes is super fun.


I hope that you have enjoyed reading my post! I will see you all again soon!

Stay tuned and stay fluffy!

Kaelo

    1. Haha. Will only really use them in non-campaign or story missions. Or if my opponent is bringing a lot of armour.

  2. Awesome!

    I feel with you - I love drop pods, but I'm not looking forwards to build mine (especially the dreadnought one).

    Oh, and the hazard stripes are superb! =)

    2. I really want to do a orbital assault army for my green sons of Horus but think I would need 9 pods and some dread pods and it makes me sad thinking of painting and building that many!

  4. Oh man looking good. I now want some but I can't afford enough. I would need about 24 to do my entier 40k ultramarines as a orbital drop force.

  5. Lovely work Kaelo, neat hazard stripes, though I do think they would benefit from a hit of Agrax Earthshade on the lower halves of the yellow? To weather the same as the chipped black.

    Lovely FW transfers and good for you getting them flat! What was your trick? Micro Sol or 'Ardcoat gloss base? Great looking Melta Squad too!
