magnusthetraitor Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Very nice, this one. Is it dire wolves with GS-fur? 'Cause I might do this for my fen wolves... Yes, it is the dire wolves from the VC range. They require some bulking out, and a fair bit of green stuff. I'm also looking at the chaos warhounds, when I can get my hands on them.

Night Runner Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Here is a new option for TWC I found on CMON. Take a look; http://coolminiornot.com/250219 http://coolminiornot.com/250129 http://coolminiornot.com/250130 So what do you think? I think the sculpting is top-notch and the wolf is alien enough to be different but notably still wolf-looking. The only thing I don't like is the lowness of the head and that judging from the scale ruler they are rather on the smallish side. they cost $30 from ebay and there are urrently 3 types for sale. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=290433629666 Any other thoughts?

Beef Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I like the one giving the high five, seriously these look kind of over fed to me, look kinda like boars with fur, plus the back legs dont look like they could support that bulk, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korraz Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Those would be great for Orcs (Black Orcs on giant Wolves, hell yeah o.O), but not really Space Wolfy. So far, I think the ones from Mr. Dandy were the best. But finding wolves for a reasonable price is a different story...for the price of the most third party wolves I could aswell buy Canis five times and be free to play where I like. Imo Dire Wolves and Chaos Warhounds make great Fenriswolves, but are way too small for PA-Riders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would only buy you 2 1/2 Canis models. Jeanwulf2k costs you about $75-80 for 5. That gets you a little less then 2 Canis models. Considering that the argument that Canis is not using a TWM but Fangir, you could just as easily not be able to use your 5 Canis models then any aftermarket wolves.

Korraz Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I meant GW-Events and Fangir is the only TWM around. I live in Europe, so it's 13$ Shipping. If I buy them at Wayland, for example, I'll get at least 4 Wolves for that price. I'd take Jeanwulf2k's (the heads aren't really good, but I think it's possible to fix them with enough GS and Plastic Card), but it seems like he isn't shipping to Europe. So, I'm kinda screwed.

commander alexander Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I agree with the boar comment, I think they would look good on a spit over the fire, served with plenty of ale and mead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Requiem of the Wolf Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Well...As the Games Workshop rules state that since they dont have a model for it,the scratch built rule comes into effect. This was from..I think 2009's heat,but I believe it would stand...so our options are decent at the moment.. As far as it goes...the MrDandy Thunderwolves...While expensive...They are freaking huge...their shoulder is as tall as a marine...so for a IC they look awesome...and 5 of them would look intimidating as hell. Plus the sculpts are 5 different poses...and they do a good job in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a guy out of Germany that was making some decent ones. Nurgle Puss is his name here I think and you can find samples of his GS and then his molded ones in the PCA forums. He was shipping to all of Europe and his prices where low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimtooth Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Was this brought up in any of the TWM threads?

Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Finally! Sweet Russ some decent Thunder Wolves!!! I will buy a couple of them - especially if they have a few poses. Anyone else think this when they see those other new wolves! http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh132/Mjolnir81/haircut_critters.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shieldwall Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 The Microart wolf looks great, I gotta say. However, as he's talking about "a new mini", not a few, I have my doubts about him releasing in different poses. For me, that would make it a no go for use as a unit, but I guess we'll see. ... That and the fact that the wolf actually has nuts, that's just a tad bit too hilarious for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korraz Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Another option is the Maxmini Wolf: http://www.maxmini.eu/store/index.php?main...;products_id=81 I'll most likely go for this one, if I absolutely have to go for Thunderwolves in the next months. But the hope is up, that GW will realease real ones until I need them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
