Stormraven conversion kit?


Recommended Posts

This popped up about a week ago around here, but I can't find the thread. However, this DIY conversion with templates was listed there:

 

Captain MAGpie's Stormraven conversion

 

By all accounts of the amount of work the Chapter House kit needed to make it fit, this shouldn't be any more work.

Holy :censored: I don't throw the word hero around, but it surely applies to you! Thank you, frater.

 

I posted without checking for other posts, so I s'pose I was a bit of a hypocrite... :P

Sorry for derailing the thread, but is CHS really kaput? I asked the B&C some time ago because the lack of news made me suspicious as well, and got the answer that they are still in business.

No worries. Yes, based on everything I've read online, it seems they're done. The site will take orders, and you can even pay via Paypal, but orders are never sent out. The site doesn't appear to have been updated for a good 2 years.

Someday I will return to my projects for the Raven and Eagle/Raptor. I know it's small consolation considering my current pace, but this is a series of kits (an extension kit, an Eagle conversion kit, and a Raptor/Eagle upgrade kit) that I really want to get to, I just need to take care of smaller scale projects first.

Not doing one of these conversions is my only regret for turning away from Space Marines. I love the Storm Raven model with an extension, and dreamed of storming the fields with one flanked on either side by Stormtalons.

 

Oh well.

 

Best of luck to you with your conversion, @Juggernut! Will enjoy seeing it when it comes to fruition. :biggrin.:

A little late to this one, but I would love to see it as well! And I hope you find that tutorial useful :)

It will be a while, I’m just having a hard time justifying the cost of the stormraven relative to other things I’m planning to buy. But I still would like to do this, if I buy it. I have a habit of letting projects pile up. :P

I placed an order in August. I had the foresight to use PayPal just in case, and it paid off. I received no communications, no replies to me or PayPal and I won the dispute in January. Around the same time their Facebook page disappeared for good.

 

I have been having a crack at Magpie's upgrade. It's pretty good actually, in a perfect world it would be great to use CAD/CAM to cut the Template out directly onto plasticard.
