Ok, I think we can all admit that the official model for the Storm Raven is a bit...meh.

I saw the Deathwatch Corvus Blackstar and was smitten.  If only it wasn't so...um...inquisitional.

I picked one up and went to work!


First I worked on the I on the top of the craft.

Then I tackled the doors.


Before you ask, I 3d printed the red symbols.  I took an image and traced it in a CAD program to make my STL files.  I am pleased with how they came out.

I then scraped and filled a few other spots.

All together it looked pretty good, with little indication that it was a deathwatch transport.


I went with Twin-Linked LasCannons and Twin Linked Heavy Bolters.

Here's it with some paint, WIP but playable.

My Raven Guard appreciate camouflage, and avoid big white symbols.

Let me know what you think in the comments.
