Ironwrought Huw Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I assume you mean you want to convert a model to look like that, rather than simply using the bog-standard iron priest model? The Iron Priest model is now in Finecast so with some careful knife/saw & file work, you can use that for the head and body of the iron priest. The servo-arm - again, the Iron Priest model has a servo-arm almost like the one in the drawing, just cut it and re-pose it (if you want to). The legs - assault marine legs? I don't know if there are any Space Wolf specific running legs. I'm not sure about the hammer. I know the Grey Knights and Blood Angels box-sets both have thunder hammers. The bolt pistol - the Iron Priest's pistol looks similar, but you could also (depending on how much you want to spend) use the forge world bolt pistol (from the character conversion pack), and the arm is the "shooting pistol arm" from any standard plastic space marine kit. It depends on whether you want to convert it to look like the art, or are happy with the actual Iron Priest model - which sadly is very static (he's just standing still) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252201-techmarine-iron-priest/#findComment-3058749 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kassill Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Wow! Those are some great looking Iron Priests brothers! I hope my next one looks just as cool! Here's mine on Thunder Wolf to give you guys some inspiration if you plan on having a mounted one. http://i785.photobucket.com/albums/yy134/Kassill1/IMG_0056.jpg http://i785.photobucket.com/albums/yy134/Kassill1/IMG_0057.jpg http://i785.photobucket.com/albums/yy134/Kassill1/IMG_0058.jpg After seeing these, I may go back and spruce him up a bit. (ie, more techy parts, more customized helm, wolf furs, etc) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252201-techmarine-iron-priest/#findComment-3063623 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warbringer Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 Yours is equally as awesome and my next one will be on a thunderwolf mount, i'm currently looking into doing a small conversion to turn fenrisian wolves into cyber wolves Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252201-techmarine-iron-priest/#findComment-3063993 Share on other sites More sharing options...
