Mr. Danvers Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I finally got my hands on my hobby gear again and I've been starting to plan out what I'm missing model-wise. So here's a pic of my initial draft of Yrom himself, who'll be a Logan counts-as most of the time. Failing that he'll be a Frost Blade TDA Wolf Lord with a combi flamer. As you can see, it's mostly held together with Blu-tak at the moment as I'm still trying out a few ideas. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/jaymz2k4/My%20SW%20Army/IMAG0159.jpg Any thoughts people? EDIT: And for those confused after reading my background - I'm doing a pre-disaster and post-disaster model (dreadnought) for Yrom. Means I get a bit of storyline flow across my army too.

Crimson Devil Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Pretty good start. The two things I would suggest would be losing the helmet and raising is trophy above his head to make him appear as he is calling to Russ and the Allfather to see him in his triumph.

hendrik Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 interesting choice to pick a helmet while most fluff has made it clear space wolves rather dislike wearing a helmet. is there a specific reason for this?

Mr. Danvers Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 I think I just wanted something a bit different I suppose. There wasn't a SW head that I liked for him, so I figured a helmet would look different. My sculpting skills aren't up to doing hair and beards sadly so I might try the Ulrik helmet on him instead, as the great company badge features a wolf skull.

Cyrius Cryptorus Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Hmm, seems I'm not the only one who likes the idea of an arm mounted combi flamer. I used one for my WIP Kjarl Grimblood.... Off topic aside, it looks pretty good to me, aside from the comments already made about the head. My only grip is his frost weapon doesn't look 'wolfy' enough. Maybe if you serrated it or added a few runes on the blade...I don't know. Anyways, that was my two cents worth.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I am in agreement both regarding the helmet and the frost blade. One thing I am trying to achieve with my recent models in a more dramatic pose in opposition to the 'legs forward-shoulders forward' look. Maybe a little turning to the torso to achieve a little more realism and fluidity. Think about how your torso looks when you hold the pustulant, dripping head of a Deamon out from your body. It brings that shoulder forward a bit more than the other. Even a few tails or skulls hanging from the 'spear' would wolf it up enough in my opinion. And this box contains several awesome heads for wolf lords -----> http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...dId=prod1040523 End of Line Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246529-yrom-darkhowl-lord-of-the-bloodmoon/#findComment-2984352 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thor1234 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 looks quite good, a suggetion for the frostblade would be to clip the blade off and replace it with the rune etched blade found in the wolf box.......this is what i did with mine :) definatley have him raise the trophy high in the air! look forward to seeing a dreadnoiught for him......
