    the thing about 40k that i love is that it appeals both to the model makers and role players of the world, hobbyists alike. the fact that you can either build them yourself, paint them your own way and add your own touches giving you your own unique unit, or simple buy them off the shelves and enjoy the game without the side hassle of assembling. Im in crawley a lot and everytime i pass the warhammer shop past the parking lot i always feel an urge to give it a look or pick up a kit just to build it and display it like all the tanks, jets and helicopters i have on my shelves...a great community and great hobby to have for sure

    Touch up for sure, but don't repaint it. Blood Ravens are a great chapter, Relic went to impressive lengths to give the chapter comprehensive background. They epitomise the concept of "warrior-scholars", their psykers are among the most powerful in the Imperium. They're also many people's entry point to the 40k universe.
