ChainsawDR Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Hi all, I've almost finished painting my 1500pts SW army and I'll shortly be painting my wolf priest on a bike,I know that the priest himself is in black, but should I also paint the bike black, or keep it the same bluey/grey as my other bikes? I'm leaning towards the bluey/grey as black is harder to get right in highlighting. What have other people done? what would you do? Thanks in advance ChainsawDR Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191129-wolf-priest-on-a-bike/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Dammit Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 My priest is shadow and so is his bike Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191129-wolf-priest-on-a-bike/#findComment-2267141 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamaNagol Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Black. Same as a Chaplain on a Bike. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191129-wolf-priest-on-a-bike/#findComment-2267143 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChainsawDR Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 ah, should have thought of checking out the chaplain - thanks for that. It does now lead to another question... I've modeled the WP on a standard bike - should I go out and get a chaplain bike instead? What would you do?

Beef Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 if its modeled dont worry about it, Just add some skulls and trophies. Black would be what I would personnaly go for on a chaplains bike but its up to you, there is no hard and fast rule on the matter Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191129-wolf-priest-on-a-bike/#findComment-2267174 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChainsawDR Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 nice work! Think I'll keep it on the standard bike but wolf it up a bit.

Night Runner Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Some real funky stuff there Max_Dammit. Definitely popped the cool gauge into orbit. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191129-wolf-priest-on-a-bike/#findComment-2267203 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamaNagol Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 No, because Space Wolf iconography is not the same as standard marines. You should try and model on some furs and trinkets to his bike to make it stand out. It would most certainly have more decoration on it than a standard Space Marine Bike. Check this blog for some cool tips! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191129-wolf-priest-on-a-bike/#findComment-2267244 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wulfen101 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 out of curiosity....do wolf priests follow the same rules as chaplains ie black armour? i know that we can paint it w.e color we like, but im just curious because ive always been led to belive that they actually dont have anything to do with the chaplains of other chapters Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/191129-wolf-priest-on-a-bike/#findComment-2267351 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamaNagol Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Wolf Priests all wear black armour. But Rune Priests and Iron Priests have Grey armour, same as normal Wolves.
