Emperor's Scourge Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 So here's the Wolf Lord minus head: The prospective heads: I'm also considering the roaring head off of the space wolves bitz sprue if any of you are familiar with that one its one of my favorites. Not very keen on the wolf helmet I just picked it for the hell of it. Kind of feels like it overdoes the whole wolf thing. Thoughts from fellow wolves?

Ullr Direfang Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 personally i would go with the knight helm. i am not sure how good you are with a hobby drill or hobby knife but i would probably try to add some detail to the helm in some way.

Mar Bloodaxe Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I'd do the screaming/braided head or check to see if you can get a hold of the warriors of chaos sprues. I am using this one for one of my wolf guard.. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/gragdushspleenrippa/models/Projects/vikinghead.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/195871-opinions-wanted/#findComment-2332922 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spjaco Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I would go with either of the helms. The models pose seems too relaxed to be screaming. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/195871-opinions-wanted/#findComment-2332925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEFF4i Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I'm a sucker for the wolf helms, so that's what I'd say personally. But toss some runes on that knight helm, it'd be sweet.

Emperor's Scourge Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 I would go with either of the helms.The models pose seems too relaxed to be screaming. I agree. Its just that I almost felt bad about covering up a wolf lord's face. Think I will try to do something with the steam knight helm...hmm too bad my Green stuff skills are weak.

CainTheHunter Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 My favourite is the head from the WG TDA box - the one with moustache which sort of resembles Arjac The guy on the right or the guy with a leather patch on his eye.

AcidBurn Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 hmmmm if it were me id go for the head which is bald in top with the braids, looks so much more angry man like Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/195871-opinions-wanted/#findComment-2333101 Share on other sites More sharing options...
milmaa Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 hard choice, I agree with what Spjaco said, so maybe a vote for the knights helm from me too. You could stick a wolf tail on top as well as some ruins like Jeff4i said. the warriors of chaos heads look a good option too, although thats gunna cost alot more i guess.

Levitas Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 You want your Wolf Lord to stand out, so its worth the extra effort to use a head outside of the wolf sprue. The fantasy chaos line has some decent heads. You can make them work by cutting the bottom from a marine helmet (the neck) and then gluing the fantasy head on top. Gives it a snugger fit and elevates it, avoiding the 'no neck' look. You can see on my wolf guard leading this pack. His head is from the Chaos fantasy range. There are a lot pf beards and gruff in that range. Ideal for wolves. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_x1vt2GUjp_I/SwYEzrGFwoI/AAAAAAAAAHA/5W0W_XyLQoM/s1600/greyhunters-dreadfang.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/195871-opinions-wanted/#findComment-2333226 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CainTheHunter Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Don't You have any WFB Mortal Chaos players around? I got mine pretty easily... I may even probably still have one such head left - but I'm not sure. It You are anywhere in Europe, I could send You it.

Max_Dammit Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Remember there Horse man heads your looking for, and the set comes with 2X the amount of heads needed so if you find a FBChaos player he should have one spare, I had the luck of finding someone with 2 sets and he only used the helmet heads.

Guganation Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I would go with either of the helms.The models pose seems too relaxed to be screaming. I agree with this, but I would suggest that you consider changing the right arm with the TH. make it more dynamic as though He's not just kickin back in saddle. then the screeming WG head would look cool. Hell any of them would look better with a better pose. JMHO.

CarlSkaven Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I'd go with the first one, cut the braids and had green stuff to make a nice beard. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/195871-opinions-wanted/#findComment-2333558 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levitas Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 You can get the heads pretty cheap from warstore or a similar bits site. Plus war store have a swap service so you could pay nothing... It is a very cool head, almost made to be a space wolf. Despite the many heads in the wolf pack, too many are just silly. Like the 'Zeus' head. Yeah..you know the one. Or the 'something about Mary' head. Bad. So bits sites are good to make up for the silly ones.

Rune Priest Ridcully Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I would use the steam knight head or the wolf head, I have been playing wolves and was looking forward to our update, thinking we may get some cool mk2,3 or 4 heads helmets like the Black Templars and Dark Angels, no what do we get, almost 20 unheleted ones, all but a quater of which look silly, and the heleted ones, apart from the nice wolf and beakie ones seem a little off, don't ask why I cannot put my finger on it, and then a few months later, the blood angels get a beautiful mk3 helmet, and 2 helmets that look like mk4s, where did the whole "Space Wolves are idiots, they don't like helets" stuff come from, I am sure I didn't see it in the 2nd or 3rd edition codexs. Also, can someone explain the "somthing about Mary" please and point the helmet out.

Night Runner Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Also, can someone explain the "somthing about Mary" please and point the helmet out. It is not a helmet but one of the heads below http://www.bitzbox.co.uk/images/space_wolv...ad_17_large.JPG This head is remeniscent of a famous scene in the movie http://www.scene-stealers.com/wp-content/u...hing_mary_l.jpg I'm sure you remember when she confuses hair gel with something else!
