I wanted a model to celebrate the arrival of the new edition, so what better than the later Space Marine flyer the Storm Talon? At first, I was curious if the new model can be taken from my Angels Sanguine Chapter. I imagined that two talons escorting my Storm Raven Gunships could be an awesome sight on the battlefield. Unfortunatly I can't.
My second choice was, of course, the Salamander Chapter. I was truly reluctant for this as the Tallon has no melta or flamer weaponry but I did it anyway.
This model is smaller than the pictures imply. Its size has nothing to do with the older Vendettas and Raven models that share the same oval base with the Storm Talon but its strangely cuter than the older flyers. In any case, I was able to paint this model in less than three days and that's saying something. This model took all my attention from the Dark Angels vow and I dedicated all my painting time to it.
