migsula Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Fenrys Hjolda! I’ve always been captivated by the god warrior Astartes, and over the years two Legions have captured my attention like no others. The clandestine special operatives of the XX and the hunter executioners of the VI. This is a return to my first love, the Space Wolves. You will notice a common theme with the Alpha Legion. Misunderstood heroes, hated but loyal to death and incredibly resourceful. The Space Wolves were the Emperor’s sanction and the 13th company the kill shot. So imagine the bravest, the most dedicated, those who paid the heaviest price of the VI Legion, Adpetus Astartes, Vlka Fenryka. A Warrior band of individual heroes and hounds, in pursuit in to the warp 10 millenia ago to hunt down Magnus and the rest of the heretic Primarchs. What would happen if they returned? With a very particular head in a very special box? I’ve set out to create a collection of models as impactful an visceral as the best Games Workshop art, an exquisite set of conversions and hyper realistic, but moody paint jobs. These are what I have finished in the past two years, and just coming back on Fenrys after a very special Pilgrymage , with bold plans for the year ahead. So after a long absence from Bolter and Chainsword, realizing that I've been working on subject matter suitable to here, people directed me to this sub forum. I've created a whole new post to compile everything together, but did not find a good way to easily copy it here with the formatting. So a bunch of images and a link to the compiled post with more to come, Thanks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324852-vlka-fenryka-fenrys-hjolda/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacepup Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I am speechless over your work. The model with the twin claws is very striking to me. I can not like these enough. Makes me want to melt my models and try again.

Spinsanity Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 /sigh, this collection is so incredible, I now wish I could copy the design. I wouldn't be able to do it justice so I wouldn't dare, but goddamn these models are lovely!

Dantay VI Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 My absolute favourite is the Curze conversion... dripping with menace. Wish I had the skill & creativity to convert like this.

+Grimdark Prince Adam+ Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Great job mister! The unique style is really amazing. In %, how much time do you use airbrush, and how much regular brush?

MosesGunn Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Just to echo what everyone's said, big fan of you and the ironsleet crew's work Migs. Really opened up the possibilities of the hobby when I was first considering getting back into it. Your INQ work is out of this world and its great to see your approach applied to the Wolves.
