Provocation Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Greetings I'm looking for inspiration to convert some new scouts up for Armageddon Shadow War. I prefer the look of the 2nd edition scout sergeant minis as they encapsulate the veteran status rather than new recruits. Please post pics of cool scout conversions. I'll kick it off with one of mine, I used Beorn from the Hobbit as the basis of this one. http://i1118.photobucket.com/albums/k614/Provocation88/13226980_10154492060053352_7424766621403949419_n.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/332782-space-wolf-scout-conversion-pics/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vykryl Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 I've been trying to find something i like for a side force with a core of scouts. This is just a Scion with a Marauder head and Dwarf axe. Haven't decided if I want to make more yet. My lone pack of Wolf Scouts is just Marauder masked heads on sniper scouts.

Wispy Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 http://i636.photobucket.com/albums/uu84/Matrias/IMG_2262.jpg I got a few. only photo is of this guy. Ireally dislike how Scouts scale next to power armour and termiantor models, so I don't get too excited about them.

Provocation Posted April 8, 2017 Author Share Posted April 8, 2017 Vykryl great idea using the scions as an alternate body.

Wraithwing Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 I've had these guys built and primed for a couple of years now, but Shadow War: Armageddon has got my arse into gear: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/332782-space-wolf-scout-conversion-pics/#findComment-4707069 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provocation Posted April 8, 2017 Author Share Posted April 8, 2017 Decided to have a go with the snipers as they look bulkier with the cloak/ pelt. The wulfen shoulder pads also came in handy to increase the bulk. 2nd ed scout sergeant included for size comparison. http://i1118.photobucket.com/albums/k614/Provocation88/IMG_4018.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/332782-space-wolf-scout-conversion-pics/#findComment-4707084 Share on other sites More sharing options...

quinnwolf Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 That's genius, they look suitably imposing as a marine still should without power armour.

Stoic Raptor Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 If you're not playing in a GW store, the Wolfbane Commando minis from the Mutant Chronicles game make great Space Wolf Scouts.

Just need to get some paint on them now, http://i1118.photobucket.com/albums/k614/Provocation88/IMG_4084.jpg Holy God, this is the exact combo i've parts i've always wanted for scouts but just couldn't figure out! I'm stealing this, i'm stealing it so hard. Question, where did you get those two heads in the middle. They don't look like normal space wolves kits. Can you give me a quick run down of the kitbash just so i'm sure?

Provocation Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 The sniper was easiest as the pelt cloak bulks him out nicely. All the shoulder pads are from the Wulfen box. I added greaves from the chaos marauders to the berserker and a shield to his back from the beast men. The two bolters and meltagun have legs from the scions box, cut horizontally to fit the scout torsos, bust above the backside armour plate. Then just a sprinkling of wolf bits and bobs to finish off. The heads from left to right: ulrik the slayer, grey hunter head braid cut off and the final three are thunder wolf cavalry. The flat ones work a treat.

Hfran Morkai Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 The shoulder pads really help remove the blocky stature of Scouts which is one of my main gripes with the models (which was a shame as I love the idea of Scouts and actually want an infiltration "themed" Heresy army). So thanks for the inspiration. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/332782-space-wolf-scout-conversion-pics/#findComment-4711499 Share on other sites More sharing options...
