Converting and sculpting stuff takes ages. It is also hard. These are things ive found out over the last few weeks.
So ive been busy adding to my Ravenguard collection for the Horus Heresy, as some may know, the models from forge world are insanely expensive, hence the need to buy some greenstuff and try my hand at making my own.
First up were 5 Mor Deythan. These are a specialist infiltration and sniper unit unique to the Ravenguard. I have made my own weapons for these guys out of 3 seperate kits, and made the cloaks from greenstuff.
Once painted up I think ive just about got away with it!
I needed another character for my force, so created a |Legion Vigilator (master Sniper). Again, kitbashed, converted and a cloak made from greenstuff.
Again, once painted, I think he came out ok. Im not 100% happy with his camo cloak but... well it'll do.
Next up some vehicles.
The Rhino APC. always a bit of a classic design, I had to include at least one in my force.
in the picture below im using therapy putty as a mask for applying the white through an airbrush. It actually worked too!
I had great fun painting this one up, dont get me wrong, it took bloody ages but i enjoyed it non the less. ive learned lots about weathering recently, and although not perfect, its great trying new things like this.
The Sicaran
A beast of a tank. loved painting and weathering this one too. I even went so far as to magnetise the hatches and weapon sponsons, so I can change the weapon loadout.
Oh, and ive reached 2000 points for my HH force too!
So in total ive done:
6x 32mm figs
2x large vehicles
Anyway, thats me for another update. I hope you are all well, now I must paint these Picts.....

Great looking Ravenguard, and amazing conversions. Congratulations on hitting the 2000 point mark with your army, that's enough to game with and gives you a solid core to build on should you want to add more later.
I'm a sucker for the Heresy, and so I'm going to award some bonus points for the greenstuff work you did.
