Wostry's Grim Armies

Recommended Posts

Hello ladies and gents, welcome to my humble showcase of 40k figures of all kind. I've started painting one and a half year ago, and I've yet to play a single game, but I'm certainly planning to.

So without further ado, here are some space wolves and the beginning of an inquisitorial retinue.

Two wolfguards - in my WIP space wolf army all the figures will be without helmets, thus giving them even more personality smile.png

A small update featuring the enemy (I'm doing a Space Wolves army, an Inquisitorial retinue and a Plague Marine army simultaneously. The only armies I have 100% finished are the Dark Angels and Crimson Slaughter forces from the DV boxset, which will act as allies to the bigger Space Wolf and Plague Marine armies, respectively.)

Thanks :) I'm also planning a chaos chapter of my own called The Hellsurgeons, more on those later! (I realize this thread is becoming a bit of a mix of everything, but I do work on several different forces, so........)

Grey hunter sargeant. The frost sword is painted patchy on purpose: I wanted a *snow* sword

Unfortunately my dslr camera was not available for these photos below, so I had to use my crappy point-and-shoot. They did not turn out to be too bad, but they are not satisfactory either.

First up is my Lone Wolf. My painting style is kinda patchy, painterly to begin with, and the :cussty camera somehow manages to over emphasise that. In real life the Lone WOlf is not this messy, but never the less, he is dirty and bloody, because he is the last remaining member of a squad snuffed out long ago. He is disturbed, and psychotic - also, his colors are somewhat darker than my usual wolves. This is my way of accentuating that he is from an even earlier time, than they are (because my main wolves are very 13th chapter-ish)

Heads up: You should continue to post your excellent forum related figures, but the dungeon stuff, unless you are tying it into an inquisitor retinue should not be posted.

 

We are the forces of humanity, but it should be within the accepted 40K framework.

 

You are doing a great job, so please do continue with your 40K content. :)

That's not an axe...

This in an axe!!

 

On a more serious note, there's a lot of nice stuff in here, you're certainly more productive than me.

 

With regards to the Rune Priest, however, have you considered lowering his arm a little bit to make the haft rest on the ground, because as it stands it looks like quite an uncomfortable pose, that being said, he does look badass!

You are not wrong there, I just don't have the patience to reposition it AGAIN, after fiddling with it for hours. I think the pose is just within the realm of believable physicality, in other words... good enough :D

Since I wasn't entirely satisfied with that last photo - and the miniature - I did some repainting on the runepriest, and also took IMHO better quality pics.

After a long hiatus, I'd like to present to you guys a couple of new figures (the first 2) and repaints (the last 2). It drove my crazy to find the right color for the armour of my space wolves, but I think I have finally found it...
