Space Wolf Army for tourney WIP/PIP

[Natanael]

Posted in the Space Wolf part of the forums but thought I should post it here as well:

 

 

Hi guys.

 

I've started(quite a while ago) to get ready for a local tourney my FLGS is going to have next week. Most of my army is already started and some of it could actually go for done, but since this is the first tourney that I feel I might have a shot at placing high in(due to army comp, I evolving as a player and so on). It's not a large thing at all(usually around 14 players) but it is still a big deal for me <_<

 

Enough talked about that. Since I need some inspiration to get my whole army ready and painted to the right standard I decided to give you guys som insight in my work. That way I "have to" post pics and get stuff done. I also have an exam next week so I am quite stressed out :P

 

Here is what needs to be done:

 

1 Wolf Priest (already mosty done, altough he looks like crap)

15 Blood Claws (like 12 started, with basecoat and so on)

21 Grey Hunters (all "done", but they could use another highlight and some cleanups)

3 Rhinos (1 done but needs highlight, 2 in need of stripping and repaint)

8 Thunderwolves (in the works. Started GSing today, and have 2 done, and the others are about halfdone GSing. Painting to come)

1 Land Speeder Typhoon (mostly done, but could use som highlights)

10 Long Fangs (6 started, but in need of a few layers of highlights)

 

And that is all. Here are some photos of my T-wolves. All pics will be with my iPhone and therefore not so good. But you'll have to cope with that. :P

A small update. I have 6 wolves for my TWC done, and two more half done. After that I'll prime the first squad. Also put together all my other stuff exept for one long fang pack(missing 3 MLs). Here are some pics of the rest of the army so far:

I was busy updating the post in the SW forums and forgot about this one:

 

Fellas: UPDATE! ;)

 

Six wolves done, except for some metal and a few details. I have also primed my first 4 "huntsmen" and look forward to painting them tonight.

Other then that I've been thinking about my list, and think I'm gonna drop the BCs in favour for some other stuff. But still havent decided B) What do you guys think? This is the list I am painting towards right now:

 

Wolf Priest - 120 points

Meltabombs, Wolf Tail Talisman, Saga of the Beastslayer

 

15 Blood Claws - 250 points

Power Fist

 

7 Grey Hunters - 160 points

Meltagun, Plasma Pistol, Rhino

 

7 Grey Hunters - 160 points

Meltagun, Plasma Pistol, Rhino

 

7 Grey Hunters - 160 points

Meltagun, Plasma Pistol, Rhino

 

4 Thunderwolves - 290 points

Power Weapon, Wold Claw, Power Fist, Storm Shield

 

4 Thunderwolves - 290 points

Power Weapon, Wold Claw, Power Fist, Storm Shield

 

Land Speeder Typhoon - 90 points

 

5 Long Fangs - 115 points

4x Missile Launcher

 

5 Long Fangs - 115 points

4x Missile Launcher

 

Total: 1750 points

 

The things that I have already, that I can take instead of the BCs are mainly more GHs, Scouts, a Dread or Terminators/Lone Wolves (any loadout goes). I do also have a Land Raider and an LRC that I could add :lol:

 

What do you guys think? Both about the painted wolves and the list/changes!
