Thunderwolves, HO!

Recommended Posts

So I just got the greenlight for using Mythicast wolves at one of my local stores where I attend most of my tourneys, and Im super stoked! Im going to start of getting the Mythicast Hero pack to make a Wolf Lord and Iron Priest and a 5 man pack of Wolf Cav to make T-wolves. Any tips you guys can give me about these models and resin in general? First time working with it. From what I have read they seem like pretty good molds with some slight GS work that may be needed for minor patching. Anything else I should know?

 

Cheers and thanks wolf brothers! :D

THIS ONE was just spotted and mentioned on another forum. Looks like a great candidate for an Iron Priest mount.

 

 

Thanks, but the Hero Promo Pack I ordered comes with a mount I can use for an Iron Priest and has cyber wolves.

 

 

So I just officially ordered them about 5 mins ago, I am super excited! And the other cool thing, free shipping! :lol:

I'm happy with mine because they are the best looking thunderwolf models I've seen. That said, compared to forge world, the resin casting is terrible. A lot of bubbles to clean off, nearly every one of the wolves legs needed to have their sockets carved out a bit and greenstuffed on, and the rider legs are lacking in detail and seem a bit warped.

 

Again, I'm happy but expect to do a bit of cleaning and greenstuffing.

Pretty much this. It was a lot more than just "minor cleaning" on my wolves. Tons of little bubbles that were a pain to remove, plenty of GS filling and some creative basing in order to fix the fact that the legs don't sit flat. The Space Marine legs are also a bit goofy on a couple sculpts. The waist of the Space Marine is too small. It's not a huge deal, but it is noticeable if you look close.

 

That said, the sculpts are quite nice once they get cleaned up. I actually just finished assembling 4 of my wolves, and you can see the results here: http://rkik.wordpress.com/2011/05/25/wip-thunderwolves/
