itcamefromfenris Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 so do i ... did some light blue as a commission (roughly the same force) but the blue drove me nuts and on top of that grey makes the look so much better :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272865-they-came-from-fenris-a-space-wolves-blog/page/3/#findComment-3364742 Share on other sites More sharing options...
itcamefromfenris Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 With the second Wolf guard done i cant wait to get to the next one. Finally my force is coming together one model at a time. you might wonder "why the hell is that guy painting his models one at a time??" well the question is pretty simple and has 2 reasons 1. since its a relative small force -just around 60 or so- i can spend time on my mini's instead of just slapping some paint on them and get my force done in about 3 weeks time. 2. Painting is my therapy. No not kidding painting keeps me in check giving me a way to relax my overcrowded head. in the end i hope to have a -finaaly- good enough painted force that im happy about and can bring to battles. for now i leave you with some pics of my second wolfguard. http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_4909.jpg http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_4911.jpg http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_4912.jpg http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_4914.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272865-they-came-from-fenris-a-space-wolves-blog/page/3/#findComment-3364819 Share on other sites More sharing options...

itcamefromfenris Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 The OSL on those guns is beautiful! thanks for the compliment. i tried to keep the osl to a point where the plasma was still stable. Imo the osl you see lately is plasma going critical if i held a plasma gun like that i would throw it away or give it to my mother in law :D the second wolfguard has a nice little touch to the plasma gun, as he is about to fire it the vents on the muzzle are already starting to glow a bit :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272865-they-came-from-fenris-a-space-wolves-blog/page/3/#findComment-3365265 Share on other sites More sharing options...

itcamefromfenris Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 to be honest the grey is done pretty easy the only real work you have is mixing up a good batch:recipe is as follow:1. a few pots of standard mechanicus 2. pot of rawler downey black ink3. pot if matt medium4. pot of 20/80 flow improver /distilled water 5. big pot or even a jar now lets get cooking: 1. Get a big pot and throw in all your pots of standard mechanicus - i did my batch with 5 pots- 2. for each pot of standard mechanicus you threw in the pot get 35 drops of rawler downey black. be verry precise with this to many drops will give you a light black you dont want 3. mix in a good hard jolt of matt medium -easy measure is 2.5 pots of standard mechanicus- 4. add -to you liking- the distilled water mix Now for the painting:1. start of with you dark wolf grey -named it- using an airbrush 2. wash the entire model with earthshade 3. layer on you dark wolf grey 4. highlight with a 50/50 mix of dark wolf grey and astro grey and presto! dark armour on your space wolves Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272865-they-came-from-fenris-a-space-wolves-blog/page/3/#findComment-3365468 Share on other sites More sharing options...
itcamefromfenris Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 3rd Wolf Guard done in just a day! im really happy about that since it seems that finally im getting the hang of the scheme. as you might notice this one is a bit different then the previous ones i made, holding the combi bolter with two arms. and getting ready to fire, i wanted a few member is the squad to look like that. I also did a minor conversion on the backpack and added some close combat weapons to it. after all a space wolf cant leave the fang without them! http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_4934.jpg http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_4935.jpg http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_4937.jpg Comments, critics and compliments are more then welcome Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272865-they-came-from-fenris-a-space-wolves-blog/page/3/#findComment-3366494 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZayWolf Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Man this is a awesome army you have going on. Really like the dark tone of the armour and vibrant yellow.

itcamefromfenris Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Having completed 2 commissions the past week i havnt had much time towork on my personal projects but since the last commission was picked upthis morning i took a small break and worked on my last long fang.http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_5245-1.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_5246.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_5247.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_5248.jpgSince the squad is completed i could leave you all with some pics of thecompleted squad, they are still missing their drop pod but that one isup next.http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_5249.jpghttp://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_5251.jpgA good thing about taking commissions is that it allows me to makeexpansions on my army and not to mention to save up some cash for my FWthunderhawk Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272865-they-came-from-fenris-a-space-wolves-blog/page/3/#findComment-3387467 Share on other sites More sharing options...
itcamefromfenris Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 With the drop pod done for the Long Fangs squad thats one less squad to paint. as always i really enjoyed painting something else then a marine and drop pods give me a nice " break" regarding my own army. i guess you can see them as some kind of reward.... For the pod i basically used the same techniques as with my first one (the youtube tutorial of buypainted) and really like the speed you can paint one up in a short amount of time. result of another squad done: http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_5253.jpg http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i422/pestilencepapa/100_5254.jpg On another note: i have decided to already "upgrade" my army to another 1000 points but since im running out of organisation slots i decided that i needed to use a new one. the new additions will give me a staggering 11 drop pods (yes i REALLY love them) Pod 9: Deathwind Missile launcer Logan Grimnar 4x terminator - 2x combi-plasma, 2x combi-melta , 2x power sword, wolf claw, Chainfist Pod 10: Storm bolter 5x terminator - 2x combi-plasma, 2x combi-melta , 3x power sword, wolf claw, Chainfist, Heavy flamer Pod 11: Storm bolter 5x terminator - 2x combi-plasma, 2x combi-melta , 3x power sword, wolf claw, Chainfist, Cyclone Missile launcher On top of the "small" addition of the 1000 points ill be focusing my next 1000 on buffing the first 2000 points giving the packs listed there maximum unit strength and adding at least 1 deathwind drop pod.
