What a beautiful kill team. Nailing the theme of the raptors and the game while keeping each model unique enough to stand out from its teammates. Would love to see you do other kill teams, especially a xenos one.

[@PeteTheWargamer]

That's the plan! Once I've finished off these guys I'd love to tackle something like a Tau Kill Team.

[@Lochtain]

@@PeteTheWargamer Thinking of doing something similar for my female primaris Space Wolf successors, with the new(ish) female Goliath bits. Plus lots of fur and an axe or two, of course. Really nice video!

[@vralingfrostmere1561]

@@Lochtain If there was any chapter that (lore wise) would start having female space marines it would be the space wolves and any successors as the wolves follow a very Norse theme and the Norse didn't really care whether you were male or female as long as you could fight.

[@kingfisher1638]

@@vralingfrostmere1561 That is incorrect but ok. Women fought in rare occasions in defense of their homes and should be commended for that but don't put forward a hollywood distortion of history as some kind of justification for your creative decisions. If you want to make a non cannon chapter that is fine, many do and play on the tabletop just fine.

[@vralingfrostmere1561]

That's always something I've always felt somewhat disappointed about with space marine design, they are these big bulky badass warriors in the lore but the models are kinda wimpy in comparison, kit bashing is where that saves them though as you can kit bash some extremely heavy marines that fit the lore more accurately.

[@xaroxero]

I love the Raptors. They're my favorite chapter and I'm so glad to see them getting love like this.

[@bicskeiz]

Combining a goliath with a space marine in order to make a scout is simply genius! The result is really amazing!

[@euansmith3699]

Goliath Gangers make great True Scale Scouts. I used the Goliath's complete body (as the boilerplate armour looked okay to me as Carapace Armour). I gave mine a Scion's beret head, a combat blade and boltgun. I really like the way that you attached your bolter to this Scout. That Heavy is sooooo much a Terran Marine; he looks fantastic. I really like the way that the new Space Marine decals go on to minis; and the Scout's skull-tat' is a great touch, and I like his unhealthy skin tone.

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

I still think you should get some Anvil Industries bits. They have so many "tactical" bits that would suit these guys to a tee. Pouches, pouched chests, pouched shoulders, trench hawks, Kukris, combat knives, scopes, sights, foregrips, bayonets, PEQ's, drum mags, night vision goggles and all sorts of practical bits for conversions.

[@johnnytizz]

Can confirm! I use anvil industries, reptilian overlords, and a few cults3d bits for my Raptors and the stowage on their vehicles.

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

@@johnnytizz Cults3d don't make parts. Its a marketplace for creators to share and sell their 3d models. Its also a great place to find people to commission custom pieces from.

[@masakari3990]

I'm loving these kinds of builds. I like that fact it's a full force for a game and not just a one off model. It would be fun to see you make some other killteams like this with more dramatic conversion like a skaven geanstealer cult/admech or tyranids that are a little less buggy. This motivated me to get started on a few kill teams, trying to make a lizardmen spacemarine killteam atm.

[@craigayork8617]

Awesome conversion. I love the idea of a space marine kill team being fitted around their chapter. So far I've only done Imperial Fists and a few home brew chapters. Going to be really interesting to see where you take this Raptors Kill Team further, personally I'd be quite interested to see the Raptors interpretation of a Suppressor. As for chapter kill team conversions in the future, here's ones I would suggest: -Executioners -Mantis Warriors -Red Scorpions -Carcharodons -Loyalist traitors, (one of the traitor legions if they had remained loyal, such as the Sons of Horus/Luna Wolves, Alpha Legion, Night Lords) -Lamenters -A Black Shield Kill Team -Ashen Claws -Exorcists -Star Phantoms -Flesh Easters -Flesh Tearers -Nemesis Chapter

[@RobertN734]

To the point about helmetless heads being a contradiction, it makes sense even outside the obvious rule of cool. If you've ever done HEMA or LARPing, a heavy helmet ruins your senses. It's hard to hear, near impossible to speak, you can't see to your sides, and it's harder to move your head. Your head is actually a pretty small target, and most of the time isn't at risk. It's why historically helmets with visors became so popular, and why modern combat helmets tend not to have face plates: a metal cap is plenty of protection, and you only need to cover your face in specific situations. You can argue a Space Marine helmet is full of sophisticated sensors, but it's all proportional because the Space Marine has super-human senses too. Better to avoid danger in the first place than rely on the armor.

[@Justowner]

View restrictions don't apply to space marine helmets. Those aren't eye holes, there are optical sensors behind those "glass" plates. The helmet hooks into the black carapace system. A marine doesn't use their own eyes to see what is around them while wearing the helmets. You bring up the super human senses making the loss of the advanced sensors not a problem, and while marines can see just fine in the dark, the helmet offers multi-spectrum imaging options beyond simple night vision.

[@gunnarlopez2835]
