We just got this HOT R’Varna battlesuit spread in the Spikey bits inbox last week and had to share it!
Painted and converted by Skyler Hoeft, I think this R’varna is a very inspiring piece indeed!
Take it away, Skyler…
I just had to add in the Flechette dischargers and the shield seemed like a good place to put them.
The arms, shield, and flechette discharger (goes on shield) were all scratchbuilt from GW sprues and plasticard.
I’ve magnetized the shield, flechette discharger and weapon so that I can run it as a regular Riptide once I get some regular Riptide weapons. Also perhaps it will work for whatever the new Riptide variant is that FW is working on right now.
And then this last one for funsies. I like to imagine this big guy as a massive personal bodyguard for my Ethereal.
Interested in showing off your work on Spikey Bits, and seeing your name in lights? We want those pics!

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits sprung from Rob staying motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects, while sharing his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.
LEGO maniac and scale model hobbyist in the 80s turned miniature wargamer and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy (since 5th Edition), but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of pewter and resin.
