Combat_Vet Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Greets, I'm working on my priest and I wanted some Wolf thoughts: 1) The Crozius Is it terrible? Should I go with a different (real) Crozius? 2) The left leg I attempted free hand paint :P Does it subtract from the over all "wolf" effect of the mini? http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/WIPpriest5.jpg Any ideas and help would be great.

Bran Scalphunter Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 The picture's a little dark but I think that's just from the angle it was taken at with shadows from his head coming down. Just slap a back pack on him and he's golden! :P I rather like the Crozius, inventive use of that skull plate. Very unique and Wolfy! *passes ale to 200Plus* Nice job, keep the good work up.

Dark Bjoern Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 The model is great. But i find your crozius a bit to small. He´ll needs something that match his size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But DB, it's not the size of the Crozius, it's the swing that counts... :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 @Bran - LMAO!! @Bjoern - I've been told that the crozius is too small. Do you mean the weapon overall, the head of the Crozius or the length? He is holding it in the middle of the handle, so the weapon is actually the length of his leg. Thanks.

Dark Bjoern Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Only the head. The icon itself is nice but too small in comparison to the WP. http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x120/DarkBjoern/Space%20Wolves/WolfPriestSigurdfront.jpg I had hoped that i have a better pic of my WP conversion. I used the Crozius but i replace the normal skull in the centre with a wolf skull from the SW banner pole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Dammit Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 It only needs to be thinker, did you use 2, one on each side? If you did you might have put in some plastic card in between to make it thicker, but i wouldn't put to much in it, overall its a stunning piece. :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash113 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Yea the Crozius could be bigger, the head of it's a little on the smallish size, right now it looks more like a scepter than a war hammer/mace. Perhaps a bit of plasticard on the back in the shape of wings with some GS detailing ontop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grey Mage Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I like him. The crozius is a wonderful use of a very random bit. *thumbs up* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Thanks for the replies Brothers. I'll start work on a new head for the Crozius! Better days, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ra1stl1n Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Besides the crozius, you might wanna turn the rosarius into an iron wolf amulet with elongating the skull you've already made a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 Greets, How's this (for size) ? http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/WIPpriestswap.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash113 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Much, much better! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ragnarok Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Much better size. But will you wolf it up some? Everything else looks great to me. Can we get some better shots of the left arm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 @Ra1stl1n - thanks for the iron wolf point. I've tried to make the skull more "wolf" like. http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/P1010740.jpg @Lord Ragnorok - I'm really not sure on how to Wolf it up. Maybe a few wolf tails from the handle near the head? The left arm is just my take on a frost axe :) (I hope that's what you were asking about) http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/P1010741.jpg Thanks to everyone for helping out! +EDIT - If anyone didn't see it (and are interested), the building and painting was discussed over on the PC&A http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=156704 I brought him over here for "wolf" questions - EDIT+ Better days, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bran Scalphunter Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Pretty darn snazzy there, I like the old Crozius a bit more, it was Wolfier, but eh, begger's can't be choosers. Just out of curiosity, where's his pack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I like the axe, looks great, the model looks ace now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat_Vet Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 Greets, I put some work into the Crozius, to make it more "wolfy". Better? http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/meadows88/WIPwolfCrozius.jpg Should I still go with wolf tails hanging from it? I have been told to give him wolf tails, so I figured that would be the best place for it. +EDIT - @Bran if you mean his power pack, I took it off for painting. If you mean the pack he leads, they are in a box on the way back from Iraq. I should have them next week. - EDIT+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bran Scalphunter Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Looks good, and I'd say yeah to some tails hanging off the end of the Crozius. Can't wait for him to be finished up! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
