Ranek Icewalker Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Any idea about how I could make a ragnar thunderfist model for my wulfen, i think it would look feral, and totally 13th company, and i could use it for my fantasy marauders, but what kind of things would he wear, and how do i make a model like that, any ideas from some of you model masters, I would like to use a model like that.

Vassakov Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Ragnar is described in Space Wolf as broad, clean shaven and tall. Black Hair, almost nothing in the way of armour. He fights either with two axes or an Axe and a shield.

hendrik Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 i 'm 99% sure it's berek thunderfist and ragnar blackmane... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/153208-ragnar-thunderfist/#findComment-1785725 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vassakov Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Ragnars clan before he knew of the Space Wolves were the Thunderfists. He adopted the moniker "Blackmane" after he slew one in his trials and his tribe was wiped out. Berek Thunderfist is apparently no relation, and just a weird conincidance.

Commissar Molotov Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I would've suggested one of the Valten models - the 'Champion of Sigmar' one with two hammers seems the best one, to my mind. EDIT: A link to the model in question. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/153208-ragnar-thunderfist/#findComment-1785800 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranek Icewalker Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 hmmmmm...... commisar molotov, I was kind of thinking that i would convert him totally, but that is totally brilliant, but how would I give him an axe and a shield???? But brilliant, he even has an area where he was hit by an axe thrown by Stryborn Ragnar was originally from the Thunderfist clan, so before he was a space wolf he was Ragnar Thunderfist, but turned into Blackmane because of his wolf he slew that was a black mane of his, Berek Thunderfist is know for his powerful Bionic Fist, so they called him Thunderfist.

Commissar Molotov Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Well, with cutting and pinning! I don't know how proficient a converter you are, but you could replace the raised hammerhead with an axe-head, and then the lowered axe with a shield (I assume - not having the model, I've not seen its' back side so I can't tell if the axe is moulded to him (I assume it would be) - a plastic Chaos warrior shield could be cool but I guess as a Fenrisian he'd have something a little more primitive, closer to the Chaos Marauders.

Ranek Icewalker Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 would it seem like a good or okay idea to give him the shield in the air and the axe low, or would that look stupid, and what kind of axe would he have, small, large, normal, or power axe?? and thank you for your responses, they are very helpful in the building process Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/153208-ragnar-thunderfist/#findComment-1786073 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinkenheim Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Well i wouldn't give him a power axe as the tribes were very primitive, so a simple iron axe, maybe even look at the plastic dwarf ones because he was (if i remember rightly) the son of the chief so he could easily have a more ornate axe and the dwarf ones have simple runes on them... i would have the axe raised and the shield down andy Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/153208-ragnar-thunderfist/#findComment-1786667 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion in the Stars Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Give him a Dwarf axe (maybe the one that the Lord is leaning on, which is a separate piece IIRC) high, and a chaos marauder round shield low. A little bit of GS for the straps on the shield, and you're done.
