jamsight Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 As we are all very well aware the Wolf dex is just around the corner so I thought I would get the ball rolling and do a shout out to get us all painting, I have unpainted at the moment a forgeworld wolf guard squad, ten blood claws, ten grey hunter and a few long fang. So I will post pic as soon as I learn how lol. post pics to inspire me For Russ and the Emperor Jamsight Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173615-incoming-wolves/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhorse47 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Sounds like a plan, I just started 10 more wolves. We will see where they wind up! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173615-incoming-wolves/#findComment-2051965 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Tuditanus Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Tempted to, but i've no wolf models on current hand, a little bit left on Salamanders, and the new kits are really close.. So i'm torn... Wait, or start? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173615-incoming-wolves/#findComment-2051992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlyInDeath Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Gah, do I really want to paint 5k worth of wolves BEFORE I go out and essentially buy an entirely new great company....most likely only to be burned out enough to not want to pain another model for months.....hmmmm. We shall see. I got 4 dreads and 20 termies I would love to get painted initially, only goes up from there Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173615-incoming-wolves/#findComment-2052001 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battle Brother Loken Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I got alot in the works right now and just rejoined the fang so here i come! ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173615-incoming-wolves/#findComment-2052004 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverwolf Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 tempting, but I'm going to wait and see what is released with the new dex. As it is I'm planning on changing my colour scheme and I currently have around 4-5k pts worth of models that'll either have to be stripped and resprayed, or scraped / sold. For the moment I'm acctually working on a Cadian Air.Cav regiment that I'm tying to my pups with their fluff. Eventual goal is to be able to go to an Apoc game and field a full regiment of Cadians supporting a Space Wolf great company . So yeh, holding off on my pups until the dex release for the moment. Though gathering bits and pieces for conversion plans etc. Trying to get my hands on a lot of the older metal wolf models for combining with the new stuff when it comes out. Have old B'Jorn, old bearded WG pack leader, a games day wolf priest, some 2nd ed WG termies / Rune Priest termie, etc. Also starting to stockpile some nice resin bases. Speeds up construction and makes the models stand up a bit easier when they're top-heavy with GS ^_^.

TheLoneWolf Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Same here, me too have a lot of wolves to be done....though I wish I have someone to give me a hand with the painting.... ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173615-incoming-wolves/#findComment-2052018 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverwolf Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Haha, yes I'm lamenting the fact I don't know anyone in my local area who is into 40k. Although I love the model making side of things, I'm not so happy about the painting. I ususally feel like a nice conversion job has been let down by my painting skills ;). I'd be quiet happy if I could setup a nice little production line with another player or two to help churn out the basic painting and highlights. The finer details I still like to do myself :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173615-incoming-wolves/#findComment-2052035 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoneWolf Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Aye, it would be good if we have a group of ppl to help us paint.... :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173615-incoming-wolves/#findComment-2052060 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash113 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Painting can be a drag but I force myself to get through it, unfortunately I don't have many unpainted Space Wolves atm, I think I have a Haegre conversion and 2 Blood Claws with Flamers and that's... well it. I really need to get some vehicles though, considering biting the bullet and buying 1-2 Land Raider Crusaders for the new Codex but I gotta see.

Silverwolf Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Yeh I'd wait and see what the go is with wether or not we get this multi-AC raider, and what it's capacity is. If it's a Space Wolf only variant on the Crusader you'll be kicking yourself for having bought the Crusaders.

jamsight Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 dug the cubs out and starting to paint them tonight I don't think that the weopen load out is going to change much for the basic troops although the wolfclaw/lightninig claw thing is something to keep an eye on since it could be a HQ only option and my wlof guard termies have lightning claws but hay if this gets me painting it great.

If it's a Space Wolf only variant on the Crusader you'll be kicking yourself for having bought the Crusaders. That's only if it's any good, I doubt such an up gunned variant will have the trasport capacity of the Crusader and that's the only real reason to take one, the sight of 16 Blood Claws pouring out and charging something. If the stuff from the new marine dex is any indication it'll probably be all flash and no substance.

Mr Talis Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 As Ive only just started Wolves; I dont think Ill properly start until the new 'Dex [a friend of mine will also be starting a 'grudge' army - Im unsure what it will be] In the mean time Im begining with a first Wolf; probably more a show piece than a gaming one [see how it goes]; My bits have been ordered; just awaiting there arrival. Ill paint him up like DV8's Tutorial; I really enjoy that look.

Beef Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Ok I will bite BUT I will do something different (not like my Rune priest with AMy Winehouse Familiar) I will build a SW flying a jet from some model aeroplanes I have lying around.

jamsight Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 Gotch ya I will still post some pic when I learn how.

Skalver Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Ok, lets see, I have: Grey Hunter pack (the old plastic space marines from the 3e 40k box, doing them first to test DV8's great colour scheme). Old Model Predator, same, gonna paint it to try out tank colour scheme. Old WG Terminators. Old LF pack. New LF pack. GH pack. BC pack. Ragnar / Iron Priest / Njal / Ulrik Bjorn Drop Pod Land Raider 3 Bikers. Im gonna try and get most of the old stuff painted at least. I am approaching it more as painting practice than as painting an army, I haven't painted anything in years so I figure it would be nice to be a bit less rusty when the new models hit. I'll probably leave the LR, Bikers and maybe the new LF's until last as those are the ones I suspect would be most likely to get reconfigged when the codex hits.

wargame insomniac Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I have to paint a 3rd Grey Hunter pack and a 3rd Blood Claws pack, together with a 2nd Wolf Scout pack. Other than that I have a couple of Wolf Guard and Long Fangs to alter the composition of my squads. I think I will wait until new Codex is released to make sure that I dont need to do any weapon swaps afterwards.
