ranulf the revenant Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Hey, I just thought I'd start a thread to see how you guys modeled your Wulfen. I'm especially interested in alternatives to the GW-Wulfen because I don't really like them besides their heads (most of the weapons are okay as well, but overall they are just too cartoonish to me). I know some of you used Primaris legs and torsos, but are there other ideas? I'm actually using the Goliath gangers from Necromunda (they're a bit short for Marines though). Might give them the Deathsworn helmets to go for a more sinister look, I don't know yet...

And one set of terminator legs. The pics are blurry, but I hope that they will give you some ideas.

Guest Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Are you trying to keep the werewolf look or want to keep a more normal look? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355287-alternative-takes-on-wulfen-models/#findComment-5296204 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranulf the revenant Posted April 14, 2019 Author Share Posted April 14, 2019 I think I'm more going for a less were wolf-like look... More Like were wolf in spirit Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355287-alternative-takes-on-wulfen-models/#findComment-5296412 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambit Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Wonder what it would look like combining the Wulfen head and arms with Custodian guard bodies. Painting the armour black with emblems in gold, like the forgeworld deathsworn.

PeteySödes Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 I’ve got some in my WiP thread that I tried to make more eye of terror style. More feral than werewolf.

Marshal van Trapp Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 these are mine I wanted to go for a more feral barbarian look rather than a werewolf look, the conversion is super easy. Take some bloodreavers (I used the EtB ones cause I was getting the starter for the sigmarines) and carve of or cover up all the chaos symbols and use some wolfy bits to make them proper sons of russ. Next replace the axe heads with thunderhammer heads (or do hand swaps if you prefer), put the storm shields on the other side (for most I just cut the blood reaver hands off and put the storm shield on), cut/replace the heads with the wolf heads of your choice, and slap a backpack on the back. You can even make some feral trophy racks for their backs with the bits from the grey hunter boxes. Edit: I'm going to make some frost axes ones as well and plan to just just the big 2 handed axe from the grey hunter box either with the arms or just cut the hands off Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355287-alternative-takes-on-wulfen-models/#findComment-5296500 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Well Primaris are good starting point. You can range from no Wulfen design, just arms, arms+heads, etc. Primaris and Wulfen are similiar dimensions so you can pick and choose. So you can go on the extreme end like me and have full Primaris bodies but with just the Wulfen weapon. However other have found ways using the normal SM weapons and alternative bodies, as Marshall Can Trapped did.

ranulf the revenant Posted April 14, 2019 Author Share Posted April 14, 2019 @ fps yeah, I like your Wulfen a lot as well @ Marshall Mhmm, the blood reavers are a good idea, I thought about getting Gareks Reavers from Shadespire...

ambit Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 This thread inspired me, just ordered some Vanguard Hunters and Wulfen https://www.games-workshop.com/en-AU/Stormcast-Eternals-Vanguard-Hunters-2017 Stormcast are about the same size as Primaris and these ones have pelts etc.. already.

Splog Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Intercessors carrying deathwatch heavy thunder hammers one handed, and carrying third party shields with Celtic tunes.

ambit Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Just finished the 1st of 10. Pretty happy with the dimensions, only slightly larger than a Primaris.

ranulf the revenant Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Hello,I tried posting some (admittedly mediocre) pictures of my WIP wulfen - based on Goliath Gangers - in here, but the forum didn't let me (maybe because I'm rather new around here?). But they are in my gallery, if you want to check them out. Nothing too crazy, and missing a lot of parts (heads, shields)...

Karack Blackstone Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Personally looking for some inspiration as to how to do not-quite Wulfen, as I really hate the oddball legs. The arms and head I can live with; the legs from the knees down, Ye Emperor, WHY!? Ahem. Please post some ideas on how to convert the Wulfen models, looking for other options than the wolfed out legs. Ugh, and ugly. At least to me.

jerrys Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I thought the AoS Bloodreavers would be a good start, but didn't do anything with them yet. Mine are primaris rievers with terminator arms and wolf guard heads.

NightHowler Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 That looks amazing! I think the combination of primaris body/legs with wulfen arms/heads is my favorite.

RikuEru Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Ambit, Marshall van Trapp and Chazzmos, thanks for those examples! Over the next few weeks I will try to get my ones in the works, if possible. But I will do 5 Reivers with the Frostaxes 5 Reivers with the Claws 5 Intercessors with the Hammers and Shields I intend to make the Hammers maybe a little shorter (think Mjolnir, but maybe not AS short) and make the Arm that holds the Shield Extra-Armored (Regular Shoulderpad with a Wulfen Shoulderpad between that and the Stormshield, to secure that gap) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355287-alternative-takes-on-wulfen-models/#findComment-5348272 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RikuEru Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 This is how my turned out. The weapons are perfectly sized for them. Reiver Poses work well with the Claws, while the stances of Intercessors work well for the Hammers and Shields. (More pictures here: http://imgur.com/gallery/O8TeM0r ) Now I only have to add a few more small details.

Raktra Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 https://www.instagram.com/p/BKylLfCjR69/?igshid=qhmqiqv9fmo3 I’m not using them as Space Wolves, but still.

Karhedron Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I am really liking the Reiver-based Wulfen and I am tempted to copy the idea. I might add wulfen heads so that they still have a slightly feral look without going all-out teen-wolf.
