Urban Camo Raven (with better pics)
« on: 26 January 2011, 23:07:45 »
I tried a new camo "technique" if you can call it that and i think it came out pretty good. overall i like this mini, im surprised people dont paint more of them.



EDIT: New pics trying to feature the camo better, i made this version the 4L with stealth armor, so i added a lot more "shine" to it, its actually kind of hard to focus on in real life, unfortunately it also made it a BITCH to photograph but i tried...i really need a tripod.

Ravens are great miniatures for sure but I love that base... The problem I have with Camo is that you can't pick out details well... but that is the point of Camo so its working.

Lovely Base.

I love the 3025 Raven with the Electronic warfare system. That give your side a +2 Intiative.
It also makes other payers want to hunt him down.  :)
Which is always fun.

That's a good looking Raven!  I've been thinking about getting one, and I think it's inching up on the list.

That's gorgeous. I love the basework details.
"Well, I do, Marcus, and rule number one of the MAC has always been that the man with the plan leads. If we get shot up, I'm the first one to get my ticket punched. There are no flags in the MAC."
"And there never will be," Barton said, nodding his head in agreement.

"You guys are facing a freaking Shadow Division! These guys have strict policies against playing fair!"

"I don’t care. Kill them. I planned the defense so I know it will work. If they claim otherwise, they’re cowards. Any step back is a betrayal of me, and saying they don’t have enough men is just an excuse for incompetence and disloyalty. Tell the Krypteia to do it if you’re too soft but get it done." -Emperor Stefan Ukris Amaris I

Ravens are indeed great looking minis, and they are also excellent for reposes. Excellent paintjob and kudos too for the basing.

awesome looking RAVEN.  I've several myself... Ijust love doing minor bash work on them.
and the cockpit is just MADE for jeweling.
Like the sandbags and wire on the base... very nice touch.
