Before they removed the Bits from their online shop we got them from GW. Now you can look in online shops like: The Wookiehole.com and others you should look at the PM&C forum here on the board. There was a list somewhere three days ago.

currently working on my new Rune Priest, the model itself carries a battle axe, I will either turn/paint it into a frost blade or a force weapon,

he also has a chaos marine plasma pistol, just because I think it looks far more badass than loyalist plasma pistol. He was very easy and simple to convert, I added a snowy owl (chooser of the slain) for him. I plan on adding more to him by using green-stuff, adding things like wolf tooth necklaces, misc weapons or pouches, and lastly adding more to his base when I am done. I also have a female Rune Priest on the works from warhammer fantasy, a bretonian or a wood elf mage OOP mini. I've also added a rune stone to my Njal Stormcaller base, just to add more to its look, character and overall effect.

An old model painted in newer times, I present to you all brothers, my version of good old Njal Stormcaller:

I paintesd this model after buying him unpainted and as new off an internet auction for only £2! I was happy :) Gotta love the old sculpts!

The idea was to use him as my entry into Single Miniature 40k for the upcoming National Painting Competition, and that goal was completed today, as I finished and took him to my local GW store. He's now waiting for the finals :P

 

Anyways, basic about the model: Wanted him to give a feeling of him being on some mountain top, thus the rather jagged rocks, and high amount of snow, and the ice and stuff- There's also som old dead tree there.

 

I also added a wolf skull from the Logan Grimnar Blister, a skull which is currently flying due to some wolf spriit storm calling ritual Njal is performing ;P Pretty neat, huh?

 

The flag was freehanden and is based on his bird and his wolfy-nature (yeah, I know it's a raven, but I love brown and hate black, a'right? :P).

 

And a thanks to brother Starks333 for some painting advice. Unfortunately, I lacked time to use all of his tips, but some of them made it onto the final mini :tu:

 

As for quotes, sorry, but I've yet to use him :P I'll return when i've done so.

Thanks! My next project will be to finish the ordinary Rune priest, and post him here too o.o

Njal is more for showing than for playing (due to the upcoming true line of sight rules), so I'll have to paint me an alternativ master of the runes for the games :(

The saga of Skadi, She Wolf, Rune Priestess of the FANG

 

http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r35/Azn_MaveriK/WarWolves%20WIP/DSC03091.jpghttp://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r35/Azn_MaveriK/WarWolves%20WIP/DSC03092.jpg

Skadi was a young, beautiful and defiant woman amongst her tribe called the grey pelts. She was a skilled warrior, fisherman and hunter. It was during the long winters of Fenris, that Skadi earned a place amongst the sky warriors. She was out hunting in the mountains and stumbled upon intruders from a neighboring enemy tribe that had crossed the grey pelts territory. They have been tracking an injured thunder wolf whelp, wanting to kill it and take its pelt as a token. It was Skadi that stood in front of the men protecting the whelp as if it was one of her own children.

 

There stood 10 monstrous men with axes, and spears. It was she who stood between them and their prey, ever defiant the Fenrisian woman spat on the ground, arms spread, and cursing in their native tough. She was the wall that stood between the men and the young injured thunder wolf. She fought and killed two men with but just a knife, the remaining eight men were angered and insulted.

 

Skadi warned the men to leave, or she'd blow her horn to call for the men in her tribe. One of the men laughed at Skadi and saying,

 

"I'm afraid your men are busy fighting the rest of my tribe, for we are attacking your village as we speak."

 

The man threw a spear towards the whelp. Foolishly, and instinctively Skadi jumped in the way to protect the whelp, hitting her in the heart. Blood poured, and covered the white snow. To the men's surprise she stood up, tears falling from her eyes.. Skadi cried out, with what fury and defiance she had left in her, unleashing hidden psychic powers. The ground in front of her trembled, roared and opened up, swallowing the eight men into their deaths. It was as if the gates of Morkai had answered her, opening up and dragging the men into their doom.

 

Skadi fell to her knees, as her life was slowly fading away......... the blood of Fenris flowed away from her as it soaked the white snow. She see's her horn, and with her last remaining strength, blew from it to warn her people. The horn was answered by the howls of the wolves the roamed the mountains. Skadi was fading in and out from life, hanging in the balance between life and death. The whelp, crawled up beside her keeping her body warm. Skadi faded from the life she once knew. She could see a large man approaching her, it could have been a vision? or just her mind playing tricks? perhaps it was a sky warrior? but it was the beginning of a new life in service of the Wolf King.

 

It was Ulrik the Slayer who witnessed the entire event from a distance, he saw her bravery and admired her honor. During that night, packs of thunder wolves descended upon the mountains in vengeance, attacking and killing the enemy tribe to the last man. Because of Skadi, her tribe was saved from the intruders. Skadi is forever remembered by her tribe the grey pelts, as the "she wolf."

 

Realizing that she could become a powerful Rune Priestess, Ulrik the Slayer took her to the land of the Gods. To this very day, Skadi has earned her keep and proved worthy of Ulrik's decisions.

rune priest Durkstrom Thunderblood...he's lost the storm shield option but now his spells are wayyy closer to his fluff so he'll be running a bolt pistol living lightning and the 24 inch radius rough terrain spell for skimmers and jumpers.
