capt.nuss Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 .... and none has a Wolf model. U probably know what i mean, and u know i'm right. There is nothing on the market, that does fit in size and does not look like a fat lassie after lobotomy. So i decided to make one. Here is, how it wet so far: http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0091-2.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0086-1.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT041.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0092-2.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0093-1.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0103.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0102-3.jpg It will be completely modular: 2 or 3 heads, legs with bionics and without walking and standing As a Wolf is Wolf and not protected by copyright whatsoever, it will be available as full resin model in 10 parts to buy, to build numerous varations. I hope to be able to have a price so low, that u will have no choice but to get some. Any questions, comments, critics and so on? Feel free.

Cain Tiberius Kondrad Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Sounds great. What you've done so far looks really cool. Interested to see how versatile you can make it. I certainly think you will have market for it, especially right now. Cain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkPrincess Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Just curious as to what bases these will fit on... there isn't an official TWC model out yet..but i'm somehow doubting they'll be on the big dread bases... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggitkiller Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 But wait I.... am confused, that..... actually looks like a wolf.... I've been playing GW and PP wargames so long I didn't think it was possible. Nice job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark_claw Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 i have to say i think its a great job so far and if you can do it as well as you say with heads and legs then i'll be down for 5 ;) or maybe 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly think you will have market for it, especially right now. We'll see. I'm not up for profit anyway. If it makes money, i'll use it in a community sense, perferably as prices for painting cometitions. but i'm somehow doubting they'll be on the big dread bases... Good point, and i'm not sure either. There are to my Knowledge in 5th the 3 round base sizes in 40K, as well es something for Bikers. The Wolf will fill that too. I consider the dread base the most probable solution though, as Wolfes to ride on must have a certain size, and its not possible to fit em on dread bases in a running position. i have to say i think its a great job so far and if you can do it as well as you say with heads and legs then i'll be down for 5 I'll show all the possible Variations, as soon as i have em finished and casted.

hmk17 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 WOW! Very impressive work, great job. Definitely would like to see the other parts for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt.nuss Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 Here you see a third version. Apart from the exchangeable rear leg above, here we have an alternate head as well as an alternate front leg. http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0105-1.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0088-2.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0087-1.jpg Nearly done as you see, but some smoothing and filing here and there. All options will be included in the end, of course. I'll make one more head, and one more front leg, both with bionics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klown Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Thats a better looking wolf than the retarded :cussing thing that Canis is riding. Man they stuffed that one up. Nice work dude, looks good next to a marine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morticon Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Thats a better looking wolf than the retarded :cussing thing that Canis is riding. Man they stuffed that one up. Nice work dude, looks good next to a marine. That model looks a LOT hotter in real life- dunno what the painters did with that one..but yeah. Check it out if you get the chance. Its not half as bad as it looks in the pics! And to the OP - MAD hot stuff!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt.nuss Posted October 20, 2009 Author Share Posted October 20, 2009 Here we go with the third version. http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0092-3.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0091-3.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j92/wieims/PICT0089.jpg Bionic leg and head. Ears still to be done, and some scars. Then thats it and it will go to casting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I do think this is a great start but personally the main problem with the Canis model is the passive pose. These versions are just as passive - we need agressive models that look like they are about to rip your throat out. I mean this with the greatest respect as they ARE very good but they do look like they have just gone for a walk in the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt.nuss Posted October 21, 2009 Author Share Posted October 21, 2009 You are right of course. The point is simply, that mounts in tabletop always need to have a certain "allrounder pose". Peolpe want to place Models on them, have different equipments, want a model that is easily standing on its own, and can complement a number of Base designs. Its just not a good idea to make a mount to situational. (Although that would look way besser in a diorama) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dravenguild Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Snarling wolves! I think a great pose would be a wolf that has its head lowered, like hunting. I second the notion of using biker bases. Great job, and enjoy making a killing from these =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormwulf133 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I LOVE it. Really did GW or PP ever look at a picture of a wolf when sculpting? And how old are those plastic wolves GW makes anyway, some of their first plastics. Updates please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt.nuss Posted November 10, 2009 Author Share Posted November 10, 2009 Just for the matter to keep you updated: The greens are lying at the molder's place for more than a week now, and he is waiting for a delivery of silicone, he needs to cast it for a serial production. I'll drop a note here, as soon as i know how the outcome looks and when it might me available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FENRISÚLFUR Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I too will have my eyes on this! You have done a wonderful job creating a great looking wolf. I know I will have a need for at least 5 of these :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
