eyeslikethunder Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Hi here are some my wolves which are near complete but I am have been looking at the GIANT BASES that come with the thunderwolves and thinking that they make a great opportunuty for mini diorama and wanted to do a few dismounted ones my ideas so far have been to have one of the riders wrestling with a jump pack marine on the floor who has dismounted him A guy kneeling looking at some tracks a guy collecting a trophy from dead body a guy leaping from his mount to attack a chaos marine so want do you think? do you have any other ideas?

Khine Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 For the comical value - Having a SW cleaving through a 'traitor' dark angel as he rides past.. You could always have a Fenrisian wolf on the same base following.. Hunting spear thrust through the head of some particular army you dislike or an enemy your proud of slaying.

Ha! Up here for thinking, eh? ;) Hmmm. Maybe one walking his mount, as you see with a rider and horse. Another could be the Marine hanging on the side of his mount, as per Native American tactics. Just spit balling :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249585-eyeslikethunder-wip-thunderwolves/#findComment-3023173 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaveriK Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I've been planning something similar. But I was thinking of using mounted shield maidens instead of space marines. Something akin to the actual Valkyries of myth and legend, before they were all portrayed and now mainly known and view by many with riding horses. People have enough trouble believing a giant wolf being ridden by a super human in a few tons of power armour. My plan was to have mounted shield maidens, while the actual Wolf Guard is either running beside the thunderwolf.

Yeah it does help with the disbelievers who cant accept gentically enhanced aliens from a deathworld that look like wolves carrying marines Maybe one walking his mount, as you see with a rider and horse. I like this idea For the comical value - Having a SW cleaving through a 'traitor' dark angel as he rides past.. You could always have a Fenrisian wolf on the same base following.. Hunting spear thrust through the head of some particular army you dislike or an enemy your proud of slaying. I certainly wanted to include trophies of those my Twolves had killed in game so GK, BA DE nids and guard + have ordered some trophies from ebay just waiting for them to arrive I certainly had been thinking of some spears/lances Just spit balling lol now i want a SW spitballing his tobacco but are my greenstuff skills upto it not sure they are edit maybe even spitballing a fleeing enemy off his feet Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249585-eyeslikethunder-wip-thunderwolves/#findComment-3023467 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulweih Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Very nice Thunderwolf you got there brother, keep up the good work! For the base you could also display missed shots aimed at the charging TW with little bursts of sand or the like to highlight the speed of the charge, at least that's what I'll try and the only sound idea I have so far.

Buliwyf Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 This is a statue titled "End of the Trail" that we have in our Cowboy Hall of Fame museum out here in Oklahoma. One of the most inspirational pieces I've seen: http://www.waupun-wisconsin.com/waupun-scu...nd-of-trail.htm Wouldn't know how that translates to a battered Vlka Fenryka on a Wolf Mount, but just some food for thought.

eyeslikethunder Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 I have assembled my two fightning in the dirt with the chainsword going into the helmet and the claw going into the hole I cut out of the shield http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l134/eyeslikethunder/DSCF3636.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l134/eyeslikethunder/DSCF3639-1.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l134/eyeslikethunder/DSCF3638.jpg unfinshed paint jobs so far just wanted the details in the hard to get places so the exposed areas need the most work trying to work out whether to have them side by side, the space wolf perched on his pack with legs i the air like he has just hit the ground or as they are in the photo?

Forté Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Argh. I hate to say what I'm going to because its all looking really good. Thousand son marines are all Rubrics. Basically automatons who follow what ever their assigned sorcerer demands they do. Their armour is basically hollow except for the ash remains of the body and the warp energy which keeps them moving. The only ones which would have mutations as such are the sorcerers who shun hand to hand. But....please feel free to ignore me as the minis looking great.

Myxx Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 very cool! I think the jump pack and the "just got tackled" pose would be really neat. Also, the kneeling and tracking is a great model too.
