Token Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 My marines, even though they are not space wolves, sometimes use the SW rules, im probably gona make a bjorn the fellhanded version, since Bjorn/Björn means bear, im probably gona call him Ulv, which is a word for wolf and something that replaces the fellhanded.. Any tips on that? Moddeling wise, im thinking of putting runestones on the flat surfaces besides the sarcofagus, and perhaps on the leg plates, any more tips to make it more viking and wolfy? I'll probably use the new plastic ven dread with plasma cannon as a base.

The_Betrayed_Spacewolf Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e374/Cainman/Games-Workshop%20Pics/VenerableWolf.jpg maybe this will help maybe ulv the sunwolf? plasma for some reason or other in the new codex is almost always referred to as the gaze of the sunwolf Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194535-thinking-of-making-an-alternative-for-bjorn-the-fellhanded/#findComment-2314088 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I think the new Ven dread kit is a great starting point. Here's mine so far: http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/2658/imgp3564.jpg http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/1074/imgp3567w.jpg Really minor conversions so far. I really wish GW would update the stubby AC in the dread kits though. I took one from the landspeeder kit and threw it on, the picture is making it look kind of crooked. Just looks meaner IMO http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/4730/imgp3569q.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194535-thinking-of-making-an-alternative-for-bjorn-the-fellhanded/#findComment-2314628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Betrayed_Spacewolf Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 the new ven dread just doesnt sit right for me. if you like it great if you have a spare wolf pack stormshield dragonscale version that might look good on a front plate Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194535-thinking-of-making-an-alternative-for-bjorn-the-fellhanded/#findComment-2314756 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Token Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 Cool dreads. What is the dragonscale stormshield? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194535-thinking-of-making-an-alternative-for-bjorn-the-fellhanded/#findComment-2314937 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoneWolf Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 KBA, if you want a much more meaner looking assault cannon, you can/could always try using the punisher cannon instead.... :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194535-thinking-of-making-an-alternative-for-bjorn-the-fellhanded/#findComment-2315132 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Betrayed_Spacewolf Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 the dragonscale stormshield is the shield that comes in the blood claw/grey hunter box.

Token Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 I got an idea for the runestones, they could be made to honor the dreadnoughts old pack, who have died off over the years, but since a pack starts at about 10-15 marines, would it look silly with that many runestones on the dreadnought? Perhaps have one stone to honor many marines, not just one?

Dark Bjoern Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Can´t see what´s wrong with the original Bjorn? http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x120/DarkBjoern/Space%20Wolves/BjorntheFellhandedWIP8.jpg But i´ve made a new one from the new SW ven dread from FW http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x120/DarkBjoern/Space%20Wolves/SWvenDreadWIP1.jpg http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x120/DarkBjoern/Space%20Wolves/SWvenDreadWIP2.jpg http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x120/DarkBjoern/Space%20Wolves/SWvenDreadWIP3.jpg http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x120/DarkBjoern/Space%20Wolves/SWvenDreadWIP4.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194535-thinking-of-making-an-alternative-for-bjorn-the-fellhanded/#findComment-2316378 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Betrayed_Spacewolf Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 i like what you did there. tell me where did you get the claws from? also did you just sand off the handle on the back of the shield?

Dark Bjoern Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 i like what you did there. tell me where did you get the claws from? also did you just sand off the handle on the back of the shield? The Claws are made from Tyranid Shoulder guards from the monsterous weapon sprue, the one with the large talon on it. And yes, i sanded the complete back of the shield and it was necessary to sand the DCCW too, to get the right radius for the shield.

Token Posted March 13, 2010 Author Share Posted March 13, 2010 Its a great model, but i don't want mine to be Bjorn, just a version, or whatever it is called, of him.
