littlbitz Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Max, these are great! Sadly, mine are still sitting in their box, neglected... I have to bust them out now. You are very motivating.

jmurph Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I got mine last week- less than 2 weeks shipping time! I ordered 2 sets and got the bonus Iron Priest mount and cyberwolves as well as scenic bases. All look very nice! The casts seem pretty clean for resin with minimal small bubbles. About the only problems were 1 wolf tooth missing from a cast (easy green stuff fix) and one of the cyber wolves had 3 broken legs (just glued them together and it isn't even noticeable). Assembly was easy, though several wolves don't seem to stand completely "flat". Not a big deal since I never flat base anyway. The wolves have an integrated pair of power armor legs, though the iron priest legs look exactly like any other legs (I plan to greenstuff some trim details), but there is a mechanicus style "cog-skull" on the mount. I very highly recommend these models! I am interested to see if they mix well with the Dandy sculpts. I have mixed feeling on the bases. It came with 11 flats (thick plain large round bases) and 10 thin "toppers". Several of the flats don't seem to sit flat on a flat surface and two of the toppers were missing a small section. But the toppers do appear solid enough that they may be used without the flats (though I would be concerned that they might eventually crack). One set of 5 was ruins and one set had a skull theme. The ruins were okay and seemed generally useful. The skulls were way OTT for me, but seem to fit in with GW's style. The skulls were well cast and seemed to be cast from GW models (genestealer skull, necron head, etc.). The ruins also looked to have been cast with some GW parts. I expect the bases might get them in some trouble with GW. I would probably give the bases a B- to the wolves A. Since the bases were included at no cost however, I am NOT complaining!

eldaraddict Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I would love to see the Iron priest from the pack. I have the original five, but am tempted to buy some more so I can get the iron priest. Does it come with the priest, or just the mount? Could you take some pics of the new mount, and cyberwolves?

Max_Dammit Posted July 27, 2010 Author Share Posted July 27, 2010 Hey Max, what are the colors you used for the wolves? I am just about at the point where I can paint mine and I like the look of yours alot. Easy, prime black, drybrush codexgrey, than drybrush white in the shape you want (look at some wolf pics online) and than drybrush the upper part black. Its simple and not all fancy but i like the dark brutal look. And i will be buying that ironpriest mount, thank god for magnets :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206015-philipino-twm/page/3/#findComment-2473880 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karack Blackstone Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Considering I have at most 16 models of TWM and TWC I want, this is just making me want to get some sooner rather than later... Love the models but don't see anything I could use at a Tourney, if I wanted. That said, three packs plus TW-Lord would make most things cringe. The point sink of 1290 of TWM only hardly seems worth it, but it could be fun if I had points to spare. One pack plus the TW-Lord might be worthwhile...

Jarl Bloodwolf Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I like the mix of SW, Beastmen and Chaos Marauder Horsemen bits but I gotta say I'm not a big fan of the wolves. There legs and feet look reptilian and their tails do to. I like the russian ones better, good job on your half of the model but I'm just not a fan of the wolves themselves Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206015-philipino-twm/page/3/#findComment-2475160 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taeken Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 My wolves seem to have a whole lot of the mold release agent still on them. I've done the warm soapy water with old tooth brush thing 2x. This is my first foray into resin models so I am at a loss. Does anyone have any suggestions to get the stuff off? Or is it ok to leave on and go ahead with primering?

Wispy Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 They look really good, Max. My only advice is to whiten the fur on their snouts\sides of their snouts. have some photo reference: http://www.google.ca/images?q=wolves&o...280&bih=800 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206015-philipino-twm/page/3/#findComment-2475581 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Release agent will cause problems with primer and paint adhering. Rubbing alcohol is good fro breaking up resin. try it on a cooton ball and just rub with a circular motion. Wash with soapy water.
