Grim Dog Studios Posted September 14, 2013 Author Share Posted September 14, 2013 Haven't finished the assembly yet (there's magnets and GS work to do) but from preliminary dry-fitting I'm going to go ahead and say that combat knife in the tac squad box: you want one. I picked up the reverse-grip knife from the sterngiard box on a bitz site too, going to add it to one of the conveniently similar arm-minus-wrist thunderwolf arms and use a pair as assault marine legs for a running slashing pose. I'll get pics up when they're more together, so to speak. The tac squad legs' comparative plainness will be countered with the help of these from secret weapon miniatures and the odd wolf tail from the SW pack kit, they should blend in well with very little work. Besides, balancing them out with the more wolfed-up torsos should help even out the overall look of a squad. I wish i had a use for the helmets and mk.7/8 torsos in the kit, they're gorgeously designed and detailed. If I had any kind of non-wolf non-chaos side project, I'd be pretty excited about them. The combat knife hands can make for some interesting poses! I used the reverse-grip one from the sternguard on one of my Grey Hunters.

d@n Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 got the tac box. mostly just for the arms,legs and mk6 bits. having 30+ grey hunters to paint, I like to have a bit more variety then the standard 4 leg and 4 arm positions that come in the the space wolves box. im also going to try and convert the libby into a rune priest and picked up some random bits of ebay that looked space wolfy.

Urauloth Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 My bitz order of sternguard combi-weapons arrived today and they're gorgeous. Unbelievably so. I'm hesitant to stick them on minis, even, I might hold off until I get some really good pose inspiration or an armour kit from FW. People should post their new release kitbashes here imo, I'd love to see them.
