Jarl of Wulfen Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Hey gang, I'm brainstorming ideas for a Bulveye model to lead my returned 13th Company. I wanted to get some peoples thoughts on what bits to use. I was thinking of using one of the axes and storm shields from the wulfen box, MK3 "walking" legs, and a jump pack from the sanguinary guard. I don't know what head or chest piece to use. If anyone has their own version, I'd love to see it! Thanks! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350459-bulveye-greybeard-conversion/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Done right, you will either end up with one or more heads, or, know better how to proceed. At the very least, you might already know; good luck, this model sounds downright lethal already. You are right, he does need a worthy head; I think you will find the right one, in time.

Jarl of Wulfen Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 Not sure if the info is accurate but kiexicanum has this history/description of him: http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Bulveye I looked at that earlier. My head canon is he got back to the fang, re-armed and headed back to the fight ;-) I don't want to use the Geigor body as I already did. Plus the jump pack will allow him to keep up with the rest of my planned force Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350459-bulveye-greybeard-conversion/#findComment-5170664 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wispy Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Of thats your head cannon, would be fun if he was intrigued by some of the unique 40k era wargear and decides to arm himself with that. Like stormbolters, storm shields, and what not.

Krakendoomcool Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Here is a pic of him to help with your inspiration... http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/images/1/1b/BulveyeHH.jpg Here is my prototype bluetac version... Hidden Content Now the codex contains rules for Cataphractii wolf lords I'm tempted to go that way with him. I'm excited to see what you do. I've been wondering what Bulveye might look like for a while.

Jackalwolf Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 That choice of base for him is super inspired and drove me to buy yesterday the legion herald!

Krakendoomcool Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Haha brilliant. Although credit where its due. FearPeteySodes and Trawling Cleaner have used the Legion herald before me to make Space Wolves.

PeteySödes Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Lookin good KDC! Been working on my wulfen and used parts from the reivers too! Been planning to save Garreks head for something special, glad it indeed looks good on a wolf!

Krakendoomcool Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I’ve recently seen Gal Vorbak used to make Wulfen (on Natfka and the No Retreat event in Gibraltar). Worth a look, it’s quite a tainted aesthetic. Looking forward to seeing your new Wulfen. Garrek always looked like a Space Wolf to me and uncannily like that Bulveye artwork.

Jarl of Wulfen Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 Well, during the blackout, I made some progress on part choices. I'm going to use the chest from the grey slayer upgrade kit that has the head attached. For the axe, I decided to go with the one from the SW terminators. The shield will be from the grey slayer kit as well. I was unable to get the mk3 legs I wanted so I improvised and converted. I took the kneeling set from the devastator kit and replaced the one leg with a SW one so he can have the captain morgan pose. I had a post in the SW facebook group with an image of the legs standing on a 1kson head. Once I get to assembly I'll put up an image.

Jarl of Wulfen Posted October 16, 2018 Author Share Posted October 16, 2018 Here are the initial pics. I didn't attach the shield or jump pack to make painting easier.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I like the way the frost axe's color gets lighter as it nears the edge. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350459-bulveye-greybeard-conversion/#findComment-5177493 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarl of Wulfen Posted October 22, 2018 Author Share Posted October 22, 2018 I like the way the frost axe's color gets lighter as it nears the edge. Thanks! I painted it lothern blue, the used Guilliman blue glaze. While the glaze was wet I blended in just a hint of white. After that was all dry I went back and put the glaze in the runes.
