spacewolflars Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Nice. I like the sense of movement. You can tell these guys are just about ready to bury some axes into some Orks.

Gorn Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 nice conversion and good use of the dwarf parts and really like the pose that there in show the movement only one thing with the painting on the blue power axe, try and add some highlights to make it stand out more. love to see more :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/176798-space-wolf-bikers/#findComment-2090140 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typical Cricket Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Those are really awesome. Where did the head that is in picture #1 come from, if I may ask?

Wolf Guard Nostromo Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 The poses look really good at this stage - particularly the guy with the lightning claw. I also think your use of green stuff has really given them some forward impetus - they genuinely look like they are about to run somebody down - awesome work :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/176798-space-wolf-bikers/#findComment-2090224 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 thank you for your praise brothers. the head in the first pic comes from the chaos marauders set. i was very pleased with the sence of movement that they have. lol the horned helmet was a last minute addition i diddnt think it was going to look good at all but now i quite like it, safety first lol. also the wolf lord isnt finished yet. i have one more to do, however finding the time these days is getting tricky here he is http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w122/greatjojoman/bikers001.jpg http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w122/greatjojoman/bikers002.jpg (dont know what happened to this pic think i had my thumb over the flash) http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w122/greatjojoman/bikers003.jpg http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w122/greatjojoman/bikers004.jpg i dont realy know what to do with this guy though so any input would be greatly accepted Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/176798-space-wolf-bikers/#findComment-2090259 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfbrother Thrarne Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I think you should add some of those impressive movement effect pelts you seem quite good at. A thousand son helmet with a bolter round through it( a thread on a "wolfyfied AoBR dreadnought" has a very good effect you could go for) sitting on the front cowling is always nice.

AcidBurn Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 ooooh the thousand sons helmet is a good idea looks like im off to bits and kits again lol i saw the thread you are on about aswell and am eager to try it out myself. i will be adding some pelts aswell. im glad you all like the way i do them i was thinking of adding a cape or mabe a fur wrapped around his shoulders and torso, and was also thinking of doing a different hair stylebut i dont know what yet Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/176798-space-wolf-bikers/#findComment-2090557 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfbrother Thrarne Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Perhaps a small fur edged cape draped over his left shoulder(with the army badge painted on it if you're good at fiddly things like that) trailing in the wind like your others would be good, If I was doing him I would leave the head nearly as is, it will contrast nicely with your more feral riders and you could give him a huge characterful scar going back across his scalp. can't wait to see your finished squad B) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/176798-space-wolf-bikers/#findComment-2090597 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hfran Morkai Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I have to say these guys certainly seem able to dish out the punishment. I've been thinking about a wolf guard unit on bikes for a while now but never got round to it due to costs both in game and monetary costs however your work has inspired me to create a unit of theseguys if they still exist in the new dex and they should right? Perfect for apocalpse, shame they said they're not allowed heavy weapons if they ride bikes, eh? Really nice work especially with the GS. I shall be keeping an eye on this.

El Scotcho Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 one small critique about the dwarf helmet, the jewel like thing on the front looks sort of like a mining lamp that an old miner might have. If I were as good as you with green stuff, I would do something like make it look like some sort of runic charm attached to the helmet. Or since it looks like you've decided to go forward with the painting, maybe paint a rune on it to make it look less lamp-like? Other than that, I'm quite envious, and hope that my wolves look this good when I start working on them next month.

AcidBurn Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 well for the armour i use a base of chaos black, then drybrush bolt gun metal and then highlight with chainmail and mithril silver. for the white i use a base of astromomicon grey and the just skull white over the top. and thats it realy simple, effective, and quick to do.
