Pall Ironbear Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I'd collected a few Wolves back when they were grey and had a yellow stripe on their skid lids. As a whelp, my idea of painting was to dip the model in a pot of paint. Since then I had to grow up a bit, got a job as an EMT, and was looking for a way to un-wind after shifts that wasn't as painful as falling off my motorbike. My painting skills have advanced so far as to actually using a brush! Finding an old TDA with CML got me interested in 40k again My GC as it is Logan = WIP conversion as the standard model is too short Njal = Needs painting RP in PA = WIP WP in PA = WIP IP = Started him for the summer advance, now almost finished..... Arjac = needs detailing Bjorn = FW model, and probably the closest to being finished Ven Dread Contemptor Dread ( This will get done as a reward for getting my GC built and painted) 15 TDA models, need to decide if some of these will be HQs in TDA/LW in TDA. The rest will be WG 5 WG in PA = need assembling 8 Scouts 40 GH in various stages of paint, ( 10 still need to be put together) 30 BC 10 Sky claws, including a RP and WP with jump packs 8 Swift Claws (6 bikes and an attack bike) 1x Landspeeder 2x RB/Rhinos 1x Drop Pod 3x LF packs 1x LR Crusader 1x Predator 1x vindicator Currently building a Fellblade after seeing Machinator's models on the web. WIP pics to follow for the winter advance. EDIT to add the scouts and a few other bits Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244134-start-of-my-great-company/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfebane Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Massive selection! I'd say you're lacking on transport and maybe some more landspeeders and/or long fangs. Also, don't forget that Swiftclaws are subject to the Headstrong rule too, so you might wanna make one of those 6 bikes a WGPL or WP to avoid it.

Grey Mage Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Welcome back to the Fang, have an ale *plops down a tankard* Id say youd do well to pick up a pack or two of Wolf Scouts, who are simply awesome beyond words in funneling your opponent, taking out hard to reach artillery, and generally wrecking your enemies plans. Good luck with the Fellblade, and please if you can- post some pictures.

Pall Ironbear Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 Thanks for the advice :( There is a pack of scouts that I forgot to mention. Pics of the Fellblade will be in here... http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=244264 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244134-start-of-my-great-company/#findComment-2952739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pall Ironbear Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 Well, this thread should see some more updates as I seemed to have cursed myself with the original post and crashed my bike. Been released from hospital today to recover from a collapsed lung and broken ribs, so I guess I'll just have to use the time and paint. Some dodgy iPhone pics of my Arjac bits bash. FW body and pauldron. Anvil from a dwarf sprue. Still a WIP http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb124/shilly39/40k%20Wolves/8bbd3de9.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb124/shilly39/40k%20Wolves/3d360ba8.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb124/shilly39/40k%20Wolves/88ff8368.jpg Logan WIP, FW body, fail-cast arm and pelt http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb124/shilly39/40k%20Wolves/6afabaa4.jpg Still trying to decide on colours for this company. Started with blue-grey, moved to dark grey-grey. But now I think I'm going to go with a light grey, more in keeping with RT era wolves Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244134-start-of-my-great-company/#findComment-2981432 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I like it, looks good. Sorry to hear about your injuries, good luck and dont neglect any physical therapy they give you- dunno if you tore anything along with those breaks, but I find its the hardest part really.

commander alexander Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Welcomes back, and hopefully you don't get hurt much more often :P . Looks like you're doing a really nice job painting and converting so far, I look forward to seeing more. Mind if I ask which Dwarf sprue the anvil is from? It's quite fitting with the rune on it.

Pall Ironbear Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 I think it was from the Dwarf Warriors box, top of a standard. I was given two in a bits box trade so not absolutely certain. Thanks for the comments and well wishes.

Loken86 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Impressive sight brother i was wondering where the turret for the fellblade comes from. hope you have a speedy recovery Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244134-start-of-my-great-company/#findComment-2986579 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pall Ironbear Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 :rolleyes: just my take on the SW Contemptor fluff. "developed a reputation for battlefield excess and unwarranted savagery" Although he's probably a little more camp in his approach. http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb124/shilly39/40k%20Wolves/470e13e1.jpg The Fellblade turrets are available on eBay,linky. Machinator is the gents username on here. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244134-start-of-my-great-company/#findComment-2986581 Share on other sites More sharing options...
