Hi,

Tonight I started magnetising my Titans/weapons - then got side tracked in my bitz box...

I figured the smaller "Spartan/Firestorm space base" landing port bit had a great carapace landing pad proxy, then after that i started thinking about representing the "Recon Land speeder"

I reckon rather than it being a full size attack style vehicle it could be a smaller, single seater, almost jet-bike like craft, with some comms kit and a melta gun.

And then that got me thinking - this could also double as Sammael, Master of the Ravenwing (should i ever get round to painting a ravenwing company!)

What do you guys think - wings or no wings, and if wings, then up or flat?!

Apologies for the focusing on some of the photos - iPhone seems determined to pick up the grain of the paper background rather than the model!

Hi!

I prefer the wings flat, but they look awesome anyway. :)

With Wings and if it's landed, wings up ala Imperial Shuttle. That said, COOL!

This is looking great!
I've been looking for something to use as a Carapace Landing Pad and I really like yours!

Any chance you could point me in the direction of where you got it? I can't seem to find it on the Spartan website.

Thanks!

Cheers folks, will play around with a few more bitz before deciding/gluing !

the landing pad is from this set > http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Spartan-Games ... 51c694ecd7

seems to be off the Spartan site now - not sure if they have discontinued it, the parts are quite small, but the pads etc work great for 6mm - i've made some objective markers using other bits and they also turned out well.

That looks great. Wings flat for flight mode.
