Bjorn Wulfsen Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Hi all, I wanted to share the beginnings of my newest Space Wolf army. I plan to add lots of character and conversions, but naturally the place to start would be at the top with a Wolf Lord. I will start off by saying, despite my 25 years in the hobby. I am still a complete beginner to using greenstuff for anything more than gap filling. So taking on a sculpt of a cloak was a pretty big deal. I will also freely admit that my brush work is not anywhere near as good as that of many of the artists around. But enough babble here is my wolf lord.

Though i hope to get some more done after work over the next few days. Comments more than welcome, though please be gentle! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287658-wip-wolf-lord/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctus Cornix Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 That power armour's too nice looking for a Space Wolf. Really digging the color so far, that's a real nice gray. Can't wait to see it done. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287658-wip-wolf-lord/#findComment-3611931 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjorn Wulfsen Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share Posted March 7, 2014 I am hoping (thought it will slow down the army build) to mix up lots of forge world armour bits across the wolfguard parts of my army as it grows. I want to give it a more archaic look and feel. Keeping the packs down to similar armour marks and the older members a tad more unique. I also hope to wolf up any forge world kits and ofcourse my knight when i finally own one. So you can expect more cases of 'that armours too nice for a space wolf lol' :) Thanks for the compliments, i managed a little more on him pre-work yesterday and have the metals basecoated, but not enough to really warrant another wip pic. But there will definately be an update later today :). The grey by the way is P3 iron hull grey, badab wash, the highlighted up with orion hull grey mixed with VGC Wolf Grey.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 I think the pack looks a little off, did you think of using the wolf headed one by chance?? The GS cloak is really nice, good work on that!! I used the same 'recipe' on my TDA Wolf Lord's axe. I love the wolf head motif that the Space Wolves have and use it when ever I can!!

Forté Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Really nice grey you have there. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287658-wip-wolf-lord/#findComment-3613593 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Wulfsen Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share Posted March 7, 2014 At this moment, that's the only type of pack I have rhapsody :(. I would have used the double headed one, but they are like rocking horse poop on bitz sites. On the flip side it makes him a little less run of the mill having a more 'normal' pack. Right now I am fighting with his hair colour. Not sure what to go for. Feel black/grey would be a little too bland and samey. But not sure if good ol fashioned ginger would work. Or how to pull it off. Here's the head in question http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/oldwolf76/My%20Wolves/f65630d150f536e801e62189d1e0941c_zpsc7231e77.jpg Thoughts ?

Bjorn Wulfsen Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 Well it is late, i have to be up for work in under 6 hours. But i wanted to share this with you all. The first wolf of my new army :) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/oldwolf76/My%20Wolves/DSC01554_zps1cee1c24.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/oldwolf76/My%20Wolves/DSC01555_zps2a59063b.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/oldwolf76/My%20Wolves/DSC01556_zpsf3240a96.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/oldwolf76/My%20Wolves/DSC01557_zps1398aa4b.jpg I know i am far from the mighty reaches of gold demon standard painters. But i have to say that overall i am really very happy with how he has turned out. After work tomorrow i will add a finally 'frosting' layer to the snow and get some better pics :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287658-wip-wolf-lord/#findComment-3614012 Share on other sites More sharing options...
