I don't know... not enough scopes :/

Ravenguard a chapter so stealthy that even GW forgets that they exist

The Raven Guard stealth ability is not overhyped in the slightest - Captain Aethon Shaan and a squad from his 4th company appeared out of nowhere in the middle of Ultramarines fortress monastery on Macragge during a war council - and spooked the hell out of all of legends of Ultramarines gathered there by announcing themselves. (book: The Chapter's Due)

Minotaurs up next! Bronzed Space Spartans!

That's Ork Kommando levels of "speshul gitfinda teknologee" on the Bolter.

Corvus Corax is also the scientific name of a Raven

I've never played Warhammer 40K, or any army battle game. But, I have a great time watching Jay get excited about it all, even though I usually have little idea what it all means. I got sucked in by his interesting and creative modelling and paint jobs. Using the mask for a cape here was fantastic! I also love the not-so-little little raven skull as well.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore- While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door- Only this and nothing more.”

Honestly the spider-man comparison is pretty much the Raven Guard

For my Raven Guard, I've making a band that decided to help their dad bring the milk home. So they foolishly ran off into the Eye of Terror with a half cocked plan and are paying some chaotic consequences. I'm calling them A Feast for Crows (but nobody says all that, they're Crows' Feast). Really awesome to see what you did with this one! Giving me some ideas about trying capes myself.

as new raven guard player. I couldn't be more happier than you pick this chapter up!

Any day that the Raven Guard get some love is a great day

As a new Crimson fists player, i have also come to see the greatness of simple paint schemes

You should do a space shark kit bash. The Carcharodons are badass.

Nice job Jay. Gonna steal that stealth cloak idea. Also SPACE SHARKS!

Raven Guard are the best chapter. Please paint more of them!

Blood angels next?

That cape worked out so well! Nice job, I'm tempted to pick things up again after 30+ years away from it all, I guess the main advantage is the models are that much bigger from my day, I took a look at some of my old mini's and wondered how I ever managed to get any detail on them!

YES!! RAVEN GUARD!!! This is so awesome!! please!!! I would love to see your take on a RG Kill Team!! 🙏

Another trait of the Raven Guard: their commanders have to hold back from trying to show the White Scars how being sneaky is better than being fast.

Jay i really love your videos, and they always make me happy. They have helped me through some tough times and i appreciate your channel a lot.

You missed the grenade. Some chapters I'd be interested in you painting: Black Dragons - 21st (Cursed) Founding - Their bone blades should be cool to see on your models. Blood Angels - 1st Founding - Wonder how you'll make your take on vampires. Plus, they're the chapter that got me most interested in Space Marines. Blood Ravens - Unknown Founding - Mostly just a DoW ask. Crimson Fists - 2nd Founding - The first chapter to ever be seen, having been on the cover art of Rogue Trader. Dark Angels - 1st Founding - The 1st Legion, and their primarch is apparently back. Deathwatch - Ordo Xenos - You can basically use whatever chapter you want with this one. Flesh Tearers - 2nd Founding - A more vicious form of the Blood Angels chapter. Plenty of opportunities for chain weapons. Also, Gabriel Seth's take on the Primaris Marines is based. Grey Knights - Ordo Malleus - Can you do this without any of the special parts? Or will you cave? Iron Snakes - 2nd Founding - Out of all art of space marines, one of my favourite will always be that one Marine with the respirator with a grill like that of a snarling beast, and the giant, thick, slab-like pauldrons. It's such an evocative image. Lamenters - 21st (Cursed) Founding - The checkered pattern on the pauldrons will give you a good challenge. Plus, we gotta love these boys. Mantis Warriors - Possible 8th Founding - Stealthy Samurai Marines. Storm Wardens - Unknown Founding - Mostly because I love the idea of Scottish Space Marines. White Scars - 1st Founding - You have the Storm Lords, but not the White Scars. This must be corrected.

I love how in your projects, every bit of conversion is thoroughly thought with lore in mind

The latest warhammer community article seems to be a sly wink of confirmation that your guess about emperor's children was right. This ought to be pretty cool!

dark angels giving a really good conversion to make the standard intercessor look like a dark angel

Ohhhh maybe a deathwatch style kill team. Each operative pulled from a different chapter. A nice little finish or milestone to these videos! As always, great vid. Love to see em

Recommendation for fabric when making capes: Dry Baby Wipes. They are a bit thicker but take the glue beautifully.

Go on dude, start a Raven Guard army. You already have Black Templars but do Raven Guard too. That way you have a codex compliant chapter and one that likes to do its own thing. I feel there's enough differences there to set them apart. I myself have both Space Wolves and Scythes of the Emperor for that very reason!

Looks incredible good! Could you make the Dark Angels next?

as a raven guard player this makes me happy to see them getting some love

I would love to see Jays interpretation of some veteran Dark Angels. Either robed or Deathwing (probably robed). So many little bits and bobs you can stick on them to really emphasise their monastic / knightly take on things. Robes. Robes. Robes. Do it Jay!

I love this model the most out of this series of painting different chapters

I'm very impressed by the "scope" of that first build.

Jay, I've had good luck with paper towel (texture) and thin super glue. The process can be challenging, but exhilarating. Start with setting the hood by holding and drip the glue (let it soak in). Then work your way down the cloak, pressing and dripping glue. Pointy tweezers help. You can cut or tear paper towel as needed. If you come up short, you can add bits of paper towel for a more 3D camo effect. Good Luck and thanks for all the work you guys do!

Really enjoying this videos with the different chapters!

This is giving me ideas for painting RG.

Please do a Crimson Fists one. The OG-Poster boys need some love!

Awesome job, and love the "series" on one space marine per chapter. I hope you do chaos space marines as well :)

I'd like to see a sandy marine! With some sort of desertic camo, but from the future. Tome Keepers are neat, they all have a book and when a marine dies, a brother picks it up and write an heroic last chapter for the book before sealing it

Awesome vid! I'm old enough to be getting 90s Rob Liefeld vibes from all the scopes and pouches.

I do love how the Raven Guard have one cool thing about their gene seed with being totally silent and whatnot… and then they wear a ton of Phobos armor which is already silent on its own lmao

I love the hobby. But I almost love the way that Jay sits at the table even more! it's cozy.

They are also part of the scattered legions. One of their boys gave Lucis his true death before "lol noped" by Salannash

I'm planning on collecting Tau as my first foray into physically owning 40k stuff, but you make modeling marines look WAY too fun

My favorite legion and chapter! Thanks for doing them justice brother!

I absolutely love this series! I hope he does popular successor chapters after he finishes the main 20.

In my head cannon. Raven guard are purple, the sneaky color!

The White Scars so forgotten .... we even lost our joke of being forgotten and overlooked.... OOOF, MY HEART

I'd love to see some Crimson Fists. The original poster boy space marine, yet they don't get a lotta love lately.

The guy with all the scopes reminds me of Escape From Tarkov when you’re slapping attachments you find onto all your Frankenstein guns to save inventory space.

I would love to see this series expanded to the traitor legions. Either as alternated legionaries, or as loyalist versions of the chaos legions.

I’d love to see your take on legion of the dammed Great work btw been following this channel a long time now and you just keep going from strength to strength

I did a similar trick for capes on some kitbashed Corsair Voidscarred with actual paper towel, but then I put a thin layer of Miliput thinned with IPA to harden them up.

You mentioning Culver’s makes me remember when I lived in Kentucky and we ate Culver’s for Sunday lunch brings back memories

Nah nah. Ravenguard really can wraith slip. Well. Some of them can.

I love the raven guard, their stealth, the helmets, and I love that they lean into the grunge emo aesthetic to the point of it being funny. A lot of people hate shrikes haircut but I love it, it just fits lol.

I bought the first Horus heresy box just for my Raven Guard, and in the lore they are one of the smallest of space marine chapters. The assault HH marine box works well too.

Could you paint some Crimson Fists or Striking Scorpions? Thanks for amazing and consistent content!

I love the idea that the Mechanicus refuse to make variable magnification scopes, so the space marines are forced to just use like 4 scopes 😂😂

I'd love to see your spin on the Raptoors since GW is pushing them

You make painting look so easy.

Ive always like the raven guard. But always felt like they dont get enough new minis/love. So i collect other armies first. Kinda wanna kitbash a jumppack sniper type raven guard

How about an OG Crimson Fist?

5 scopes Malone had be rolling. Great vid.

Love getting a new vid for the morning commute! Here’s hoping I win the terrain this month. Want to stage my Spacewolves saving a Kasrkin kill team from being held captive in a mine. Plllleeeeaaaase paint a Wolf captain with more primal hounds bits!

Getting back into the hobby after a hiatus of over 15 years (was 11 then, now 26 and can better appreciate the art as well as the game). Would love if you did some blood angel videos! Much love!

Great idea about the mask. I have been using other things for cots and bed sheets.

I did a ghillie suit cape for a zaku sniper gunpla using gauze. It looks very close to that kind of netty camouflage that you see draped over military vehicles.

You forgot to mention the Corvus is currently an imperial raven daemon terrorising Lorgar and his hyper religious nut jobs! I stand corrected, you mentioned it at the end, I would love to see Covus and Jaghatai return.

Most decent looking primaris I have ever seen, well done!

a Carcharadons marine next, the shark marines are such a cool idea and have a lot of potential for kitbashing/ 3D printed parts

There are some successors with great colors and themes, like the metallic armor of the Minotaurs, the teal of the Dragon Spears or the "tattooed" armor of the Carcharodons

That Vibrant base is slick!!

Very nice, but he would have been *perfect* if you had pulled out a Devastator beaky head, one of the ones that have a bunch of lenses and scopes and targetting thingies built into the helmet, so he could have YET MORE SCOPES. As for what Legion to paint next, my favorite is always Thousand Sons, if you want to do some Traitor Legions!

The Kill Team Salvation box came with Raven Guard transfers, and so does the new Scout Kill team which you will want anyway if you are playing Raven Guard. So RG players do have options for transfers these days. Also Scouts are really good for any chapter so if you have a RG player in your area, trade them the RG transfers for ones you want.

His helmet would look epic in the same color as the bird skull

The cape looks super good.

Jay I know you might just be doing really popular first founding marines, but it would really make me happy to see some less well known ones, maybe the Executioners ? Either way good job on the vid it looks great !

The 19th is one of my favorites. Currently I’m trying to turn the space marines I’ve collected through starter sets into a cohesive army, my favorites are the Imperial fists, Iron hands and Ravenguard I’m leaning to either the imperial fist or ravenguard since a friend of mine got his hands on both battle forces and is offering to sell me one.

Fianlly, Ive been waiting for this. Caw Caw brothers. Finally our moment in the darkness.

White scares would be cool to see next they deserve more love

I painted a First born Raven guard space marines from the heroes set 2 years ago. I also gave him a beaky helmet and painted his helmet and arms white. The final result is wonderful and also temp me to make a Raven Guard army, but I got too many as is.

6:03, Please everyone, don't use a saw on that direction, towards the hand. One day, you might regret it, trust me. Or at least, wear some protective gloves while doing it. Some very good protective gloves.

Ngl I always thought the Beakie helmet looked better on the Tacticus armor than the other armor mark helmet designs.

I'd love to see you paint a Crimson Fist scheme painted on a Horus Heresy Mk VI marine but using the REALLY old school markings from Rogue Trader. New plastic, new paint, old lore; mixing your painting style with the original Judge Dread stylings of the late 1980s. Could be a fun departure from your usual fare?!?

Fun fact: Space Marine weapons don't have scopes, they are cameras that directly project the image into the helmet of the wielder.

I love it! My favorite, and I wish corax were to come back soon!

Would love to see Crimson Fists love!

It would be great to see you tackle a Flesh Tearers marine, I'd love to see your take on their scheme

The Ravenguard upgrade sprue has some smaller bird skulls to chop off and use. That big skull on the chest looks… interesting. For my ravenguard in tactics I usually scrape off the Aquila and put pouches on the chest, like with Phobos marines.

Mk6 marines from 30k are a little cheaper than primaris for almost the same height, that's where I got my beakies from and I used extra Intercessor shoulder pads and helmets to make the MK6 troopers look almost Primaris.

I can't believe the scope of this project.

Brother Tacticool is like "Red dot, check. Thermal sight, check. DMR range optics, check. Long range, optics check. infrared sight, check. Caw caw motherfuc...."

Excellent work 👍 2 things - should be 'six scope steve' and REALLY don't like the outline tactical symbol, looked so much better before 😢

Thank you I was thinking about asking you to do this but … black armour and our history. Awesome. I’m trying to get that indigo from one angle and green from another. Ravens are black but they have the oil/gas sheen and I want to work that in for the shadow masters.

Perfect, i was just thinking you needed another black space marine army lololol

Love it lots of scope to expand on these ideas

The grenade about to be thrown could've used some extra love for emphasis. Now it just disappears into the fist. Amaazing vibe with the cape and the jungle base, tho.

Paint sons of the phoenix! You need some purple marines. I love the fan story where that chapter gets clone fulgrim back.
