Wraithwing Posted February 20, 2016 Author Share Posted February 20, 2016 The first three riders are complete. I present to you, The Riders of Morkai: Pack Leader Denr Longblade: Ranulf the Black: Nils Ironclaw: The rider of the fourth Wolf, Fior Frostmane, will be added finished soon. I've matched the personal heraldry to the new fluff in Curse of the Wulfen. Just got to add snow and grass tufts to the bases, once they've had a coat of varnish. C&C welcome :) Cheers, WW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlodVargarna Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Fantastic! I wish I could be 1/4 as productive as you are. Great paint jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraithwing Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 Harald Deathwolf and the Riders of Morkai charge headlong into battle: Joined by Fior Frostmane: Group shot of the pack and great company markings: Now to decode what to paint next. Another 5 Grey Hunters I think, before my Wulfen arrive! C&C appreciated. Cheers, WW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Callidan Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Those are awesome brother. Was it simple to make Logan's wolf into a thunder wolf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraithwing Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 Those are awesome brother. Was it simple to make Logan's wolf into a thunder wolf? Yes to the one I've used. You need to sculpt some fur into the recesses the reigns glue into, and add a saddle, but otherwise it's fine. The other wolf, leaping forward, is a fair bit harder, as the chunk of ice it's based on extends it much to far over a regular 60mm base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ragnarok Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Great works. I love the way they pop. You do the Deathwolves proud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beefeb Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Missed the last few updates, havent been online for a while, RL impacting on hobby again, sigh. Wolves are simply stunning dude....can you provide a step by step to them please? I'll assume you mean the Thunderwolves. For the grey wolf, base coat was celestra grey, with dawnstone used for the fist pattern, and then washed with nuln oil. I then drybrushed with celestra again. Then I did the final stripe down the back of the wolf in black, highlighted with grey. The grey/brown wolf was based in dawnstone, then washed with nuln oil. Then a stripe of XV88 was applied as the first pattern, then Dryad bark as the final pattern colour. Then I washed it with agrax earth shade. Then I drybrushed the grey with administratum grey, and the dryad bark with gorthor brown. Then a final black stripe was painted down the back of the wolf. The final wolf was based in zandri dust, and gorthor brown and dryad bark as the pattern. Then it was all washed in agrax earth shade. He zandri was drybrushed up with ushabti bone, and the Browns with their lighter counterparts. A final black stripe was applied down the back of the wolf, and highlighted with eshin grey. Thats great, ill take a note of the recipe for future reference......have you done any wulfen yet ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alakinsky Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I seem to say the same things over and over again when commenting on people's work here, but these all look amazing! The skill level displayed by multiple people here is mind-blowing. Wraithwing (besides having a badass username), your work is impressive and inspiring. I love how you have tied your Thunderwolves together but still made them unique and not uniform. I never thought to use the wolves from Logan's chariot to convert to TWC and I am totally going to steal that from you. I love the idea of using the pilot from the Stormwolf as a TWC Iron Priest conversion, and I want to do one of those. As soon as my bases arrive from Secret Weapon Minis I can start assembling my models and not just cutting off the sprue and cleaning them up! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work. Such great looking models! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraithwing Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 Just wanted to test the water with this Wolf Priest WIP. He's not in my army list, but with the recent discovery that the Lords of the Fang formation could well include a generic Wolf Priest, I decided I wanted to convert one up. I'm still undecided what to do with my Krom. Very tempted to Ragnarise him, but I will then want to do some Blackmanes to go with him! Let me know what you think: Not too sold on the helm. I'd like to use a bare head, but can't find one that I think will fit. What do you think? Cheers, WW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fytharin Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I agree on the helm bit, and it's because of the wolf heads on the back pack, it looks too redundant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wispy Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 if you're looking for a priest helm, I LOVE the wolf-skull-on-top-of-beaky-helm conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 That idea works well atop of the wolf shaped helmet from the troop box. I can dig out a photo if you'd like. It's squared lower "jaw" fits nicely under the end of the skull. The nice thing about the Krom body, is that it fits most of the requirements for a badass looking model.

Wraithwing Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share Posted March 12, 2016 Just a small update today, to keep the thread rolling. Decided to make Drenn Redblade the leader of my new Grey Hunters pack/ The Power Sword arm from the Space Wolves kit goes quite well with him I think: I also shaved the company markings off the shoulder, as I'll be putting pack markings there.

Bryan Blaire Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Looks awesome, Wraith! I've been considering something similar (though not replacing the chainsword), and you've made a very convincing argument. :D I really like combing through your thread, and when I shamelessly rip off one of your ideas for inspiration, I'll be sure to give you a holler!

Landrick Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Could you show how you make the Deathwolves company marking? I find this really inspiring for my force, but haven't figured out that icon yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks dude, appreciate it! Could you show how you make the Deathwolves company marking? I find this really inspiring for my force, but haven't figured out that icon yet They're transfers from the old forge world space wolves transfer sheet, now out of production sadly. I managed to scrounge some via Facebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Aye it is a shame that the FW sheet has disappeared, we can only hope it makes a return. The new GW transfer sheet only has Grimnar, Blackmane & Dragongaze's Great Company symbols on it, but you could use Ragnars company mark and freehand te sun in the jaws? Either that or check the downloads section here an maybe make your own transfers. Redblade looks cool wit the power sword, Did you make a slot in the top of the scabbard to make it look empty (as the knife is in his hand). It is a nice little detail :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wraithwing Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 Time for some updates! It's been a busy old month has March, so I'm looking to make some time this month for more hobby. Think I'm off to a good start with these guys: My second Grey Hunter pack. The second half of this pack will have another Plasma, as well as the Company Banner. After the above are finished, hopefully in the next day or so, I'm moving onto these guys: The axes are magnetised, in case I want to field more claws or TH/SS. Finally, I took a leaf out of Fyth's book, and converted my Iron Priest to ride a Thunderwolf: Super easy to do, and managed to keep all the cables and pipes intact.
