This gunship painted and converted by Drew Drescher, is a unique heavily converted model painted in Black Templar colors. This model has been extensively converted. It was originally based on the Valkyrie model with a metric ton of plasticard and spare bits, effectively creating a "Chibi-scale" Thunderhawk. The forward cargo section was flipped around and Drew straightened the Valkyrie wing out to make the primary wings for the ship. The secondary wings were kitbashed from a Drop pod. From a scale perspective, this incredible conversion would likely function as a Storm Raven.
Drew created this backstory for "Eternal Zealot:"
At the dawn of the third millennium, a Thunderhawk was the desire of many commanders of the mighty Adeptus Astartes. One rogue techpriest, sequestered deep in a bunker within the Nord-Merican conclaves, decided to modify the hull of a newly-released Imperial Guard Valkyrie to mimic the form of the mighty Thunderhawk albeit on a slightly smaller scale. The unique result, comparable to the now ubiquitous Storm Raven, was christened the “Eternal Zealot” and co-opted for use by a splinter crusade force of the Black Templars for deep strike operations. Most notably the Eternal Zealot was deployed in 888.M41 during the Crusade of Wrath where the Black Templars engaged their traitorous kin, the Word Bearers, and wrested several systems in close proximity to the Maelstrom from their grasp.
