OK, one and all, and welcome back...

It's been a very long time since i posted in here. I've been trying to tear through some of my unpainted plastic, but since the wolves were released recently, I figured it was an excuse to cover some of that plastic in grey paint.

For your viewing pleasure, I give you the first pf my Blood Claw packs...

And the whole pack...

http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Imperial/Space%20Marines/Space%20Wolves/DSCN1085.jpg

So, I hope the use of the spoiler tags stops this post being too unwieldy. Seemed like a better idea than splitting them up into 3 separate posts.

Overall, I'm quite pleased with the way they came out. Some observations...

1) I still need to go buy a drill set, though some models do have drilled bolters as they are from a vintage before my last drill bit died.

2) I like the bases much better, though it means I'll need to go back and fix all the previous packs so that they match furious.gif

3) I also notice that they're a little lighter than the Wolf Guard in power armor posted previously, though I think I'll just have to let that slide for now.

I have more wolves in the pipeline, but having run out and bought Stormclaw (thus breaking the promise to myself that I wouldn't buy any more plastic till I had made a sizeable dent in my existing collection) I'm struggling with the desire to buy the new Grimnar and Bjorn models...

Anyways, till next time, comments and criticism are welcome.

Cheers

Thanks folks, I appreciate the comments.

 

@DSS7 - Thank you sir, much obliged!

 

@Konnavaer  -Thanks mate, I appreciate it.  I shamelessly stole the bare arm idea from an old GD winning squad back in about 98/99.  The artist went as far as to add tartan sashes and kilts...  I'm not brave enough for that yet.  Glad you like them, and thanks for commenting. 

 

@AmyS - Thank you kindly.  I always liked the darker grey wolves rather than the baby blue of later years, so had to give it a go.  I've been loving your wolves, they're looking great so far.  I'll be popping over to your thread to compliment you shortly.

 

@Psy-Crow - Cheers! I appreciate it.

 

One more pack of blood claws, and two grey hunters to come.  Thanks again for all the comments, I'll be back soon.

 

Cheers

And we're back.

 

It's been a while, but I have some more pups for your viewing pleasure. Expanding the forces of the Rout today, we have Ragnar Blackmane and his wolfguard. See what you think.

 

Ragnar Blackmane

I've not bored out the weapons yet, but I will. Eventually. The eagle-eyed among you might notice one of the Wolfguard is currently weaponless. I moved country in October, and while I packed the models and paints, I omitted to bring my bitz box, or even a spare gun for him. I'll correct this next time I buy a box of Marines.

 

Other than that, comments and criticism welcome. more of Sven's blood claws will arrive soon.

 

Cheers,

Thanks folks, I appreciate it.

 

@gingalain - cheers. Means a lot coming from a fellow enthusiast. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your wolves too.

 

@ Stercus - lol! Glad you like it. I figure if Seth can have a crazy big sword, its only fitting Ragnar gets one too!

 

@ fivepointedstar - cheers mate. A parts list... I made him a while back, so I might miss bits, but...

 

Head - New Spacewolf sprues

Body - Kossoro Khan

Belly plate - New Spacewolf sprues

Arms - New Spacewolf sprues

Chainsword - 2 identical blades from New Spacewolf sprues, cut diagonally so as to maximize length, but not to damage teeth

Backpack - Backpack from old Spacewolf sprue

Cloak - head, front legs & paws from old Spacewolf sprue cloak, body & rear paws from new Spacewolf cloak, lots of green stuff.

Left shoulder pad - wolf head from old Spacewolf backpack, lots of green stuff.

 

There are some pics of him without paint over in the WIP forum if you need help figuring out what I man by some of these terms.

 

Thanks again for the comments. The blood claws are coming soon.

 

Cheers,

 

Widowmaker

Not sure what's on the table next... Perhaps some Skyclaws...  We'll see.

 

As always, comments and criticism welcome.
