LPetersson Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 So, I really need another Plasma Gun or two, and since bitzbox are out of stock, I was thinking of getting a box of tactical marinesand wolfyfying them. I have a few SW bodies and some tails lying around anyway that I can put on them. So, anyone else tried this and was it really easy and simply or a hassle? Bearing in mind that I'm not really any good at customising models...

Wolf Guard Hengist Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I pretty much keep my Grey Hunters as "Space Marine" as possible but just add a wolf tail and Chest plate here and there. I leave the Hairy stuff for my Wolf Guard and Blood Claws. A little thing I do make my Wolf part stand out more is make sure any guys with a wolf chest Piece have an open handed pose so that it is more visible as opposed to holding the bolter two hande dstyle across the chest which would cover up the nice bits. Hope that helps a little. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/167758-wolfyfying-a-standard-tac-marine-squad/#findComment-1977506 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPetersson Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Cheers, I should probably have mentioned above that all my Grey Hunters are wearing their helmets and only my Blood Claws are helmetless, so I don't really care about the heads as such...

Wolf Guard Nostromo Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 The open pose is a good tip, and with a wolf tail or 2 they fit the bill. Another easy tip is to spread a few runes in the form of transfers from the space wolf sheet on larger open areas (e.g. side of legs) to add instant wolfy detail. Small pelts are also very easy to make with green stuff, and after a few, I find you can bang out a number for the bottom of shoulder pads or at waist level once you have a technique for it.

Bjorn the Fell-Handed Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Add things like the little wolf tail talismans, paint runes on shoulderpads. Hell, on the AoBR termie sergeant, I used GS to make the studded apron/kilt thing into a wolf pelt :P Details like that :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/167758-wolfyfying-a-standard-tac-marine-squad/#findComment-1978615 Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPetersson Posted May 6, 2009 Author Share Posted May 6, 2009 And theyre expensive for five bitz. Kinda... With the prices Bits websites charge, they're not bad even if they were plastic rather than metal. In fact, Id probably get some if they had been plastic... ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/167758-wolfyfying-a-standard-tac-marine-squad/#findComment-1978911 Share on other sites More sharing options...
