Though I would like to be able to afford a Thunderhawk I know that basically won’t be possible! So with a conversion in mind, I decided to see if could use an old Kenner Rebel Blockade Runner (I had in the garage for use with Full Thrust Star Wars) and utilise it as a Grey Knights’ Gunship.

Grey Knight Terminator
One of my Christmas presents was a Grey Knight Terminator.
The model goes together very nicely.
I used Citadel sand on the base and resin and slate from the Warhammer 40000 Basing Kit.
One of the issues of being one of the slowest painters in the world is that when you eventually do paint the models, you can find that they have been replaced by newer plastic versions, which sometimes are better, sometimes not, but usually different…

Grey Knight Masters of the Chapter
One of my (2007) Christmas presents was a box of Space Marine Masters of the Chapte.
…and here they are out of the box in their raw metal state.
It is my intention to paint them up as Grey Knights. I am attempting to paint a Grey Knights force which goes beyond the listings in the DaemonHunters Codex. What I am trying to do is to create a Grey Knights force (using the Space Marine Codex) and then using a DaemonHunters force as allies.

Grey Knights Land Speeder Crew
Having worked a lot of my Grey Knights Land Speeder, one of the key components is the replacement crew. Here is the finished crew in situ.
I could have used the included plastic Space Marine crew, but in the end I used some metal Grey Knights models. I started with a black basecoat and then gave the armour a basecoat of Boltgun Metal. This was followed with the gold metal parts been given a base coat of Brazen Brass.
After painting the base coats for the purity seals and other iconology on the Grey Knights, I gave the purity seals a top coat of Bleached Bone and highlighted with white paint. I then added text and writing using a fine brush and thinned black paint.
I then cut the legs off…
Placing the crew in the Land Speeder gives an idea of the final effect I am trying to achieve.

More basecoat
Having done some of my Grey Knights Razorback basecoat I did some more. Mainly the top Lascannon weaponry.
The next stage will be adding more of the basecoat.

Grey Knights Razorback basecoat
If you have looked at my Grey Knights Landspeeder you will realise that I am attempting to paint a Grey Knights force which goes beyond the listings in the DaemonHunters Codex. What I am trying to do is to create a Grey Knights force (using the Space Marine Codex) and then using a DaemonHunters force as allies.
Having constructed my Razorback and added Grey Knights iconography I gave the model a black undercoat. The next stage was the basecoat and for that I am using the Tausept Ochre Foundation Paint as a basecoat. So why is it brown? I blogged about this back in 2007.
The next stage will be adding more of the basecoat.
