looks nice! Very clean painting and well detailed, I should add.

May I make a suggestion? If the army will themed around assault on Prospero, maybe you should make base more Prospero-authentic - IMHO it should look like some desert with white stone blocks, smth like Egyptians did, you know?

Good to see the Space Wolves on the go DaemonPrinceDargor. Rememeber you need 1500pts ready for March, I'll make sure you will get them done in time :P

 

On another note, I was suggested for Gold to use a light wash of the purple wash GW do. It work really well IMO & greatfull for the tips I pick up through out the UKGT. Your model great don't get me wrong & I can't wait. But though just suggest trying out the purple wash on gold (do it on a spare model just to make sure you like it)

Prospero was an Ice World.

 

And I will begrudgingly admit that is a good model, but I will stand strong against those who will assault Prospero!

Great start mate, it'd be nice to see you get this done for march, we need to make sure we have a game on the friday or saturday night this time.

 

Looking forward to seeing where this goes, any plans for what you're going to have in the army yet?

What is your recipe on this mini! It looks fantastic and exactly what I am looking to do on for my Wolves!

 

 

i second this!fantastic mini and very inspiring!...so come on...give up your secrets (and there might be a cask of ale in it for ya) ;)

very very very nice! detailed, clean crisp and a great theme!

 

I'll agree that you should probably go for the bases being more desert like with random bits of sandstone. Perhaps look at getting the steamknight head set from maximini also for some TS style helmets and some more old school style helms for the puppies themselves ;)

Just to show everyone that i'm not dead and the Wolf project is still on... ;)

Named by my girlfriend,who by the way is the reason why i started space wolves... :)

 

Now,since i heard something about a cask of ale...

 

1)Over a black undercoat i start with a couple of coats of Adeptus Battlegrey.

2)I shade the points where the armour meets with devlan mud and when that is dry,a very thin line of chaos black.

3)The first stage highlights is done with codex grey,second stage highlights with fortress grey and the fine highlights with a 50/50 fortress grey and skull white mix.

 

And thats it for the armour,quick and easy.

 

 

Cheers!

Cheers for the kind words guys!Glad you like him,next up will be some Grey Hunters for him to lead for what is Wolf Lord without his packs to order around?

 

Pulse,its not fiercest name agreed and if it were up to me i would have named him Rothgar or something,but since my gf inspired me to start Wolves,it was only proper to let her name him!:D

 

Herald,blasphemy?BLASPHEMY YOU SAY???*sounds of chainaxe spinning up* :D

 

 

Cheers! :D

thanks for posting your recipe, gonna try and do it justice, although i might just have only the fortress grey highlite.

Yeah. Blasphemy. The Thousand Sons were my favorite pre-heresy legion. I always thought their story to be tragic. Post-heresy, Slaanesh all the way baby.
