mactire Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I've wanted to put together some Wulfen for a while, but can't stand the legs so I picked up a box of Reivers and am going to try a bit of mix and match. Put one together today so any comments and criticism appreciated. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356746-wulfen-and-reivers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHowler Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 He looks pretty cool. I built my wulfen with legacy marine legs and torso. I recently bought some primaris intercessors to redo them with primaris legs and torso, but reivers look like they might work even better.

PeteySödes Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Honestly, it’s not working for me as much. You’ve done a great job, but something about it doesn’t sit well. I think it’s something about the full kit lower half but completely bare torso? Maybe add a should pad?

Guest Triszin Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Try using the river legs from the knee cap down ( use the river knee as the new one) on the wulfen thighs Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356746-wulfen-and-reivers/#findComment-5335805 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteySödes Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Oh! Also if you’re running them as wulfen they’ll need to be on the bigger bases. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356746-wulfen-and-reivers/#findComment-5335808 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactire Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 Peter - will be using the larger base, that was the nearest to hand. Also will use a mix of Wulfen and other pads, I'm playing around with the idea of using the Riever torso on some of them with just Wulfen arms and heads, to give the impression of varying stages of the curse. Trizin - there is a fair difference in bulk between the two models, particularly the legs, so I'm not sure how they'd match up, might try one though. Thanks for the ideas guys.

Yoyo ninja Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I used reiver bodies for my Wulfen. I hate the lower half of the reiver legs, so I cut them off and added the Wulfen legs. I think it looks great, but I know not everyone is keen on the Wulfen legs. I also trimmed the pouches off the thighs, then covered the area with the Wulfen shoulder pads, it bulks them out a lot. I got some dwarf shoulder pads as well to go on the Wulfen shoulders, they look good, they have knotwork on. I'll put a pic up when I get the chance.

RikuEru Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I had much the same idea a few weeks ago, mainly because I am trying to build a Primaris Chapter. (In fact: I am currently carrying the bag of ordered Colours, Reivers and Wulfen I picked up from the GW store on Friday) So I am eager to see your progress! I thought about doing a 5 man Squad of each weapon. And I wanted to use regular Primaris Bodies for the Shield & Hammer guys. They have the reinforced legs and both Shoulderpads. To reinforce the armored look I want to try to use the smaller Wulfen Shoulder Pads below the left Shoulder Pad, on the upper arm, basically to bridge the gap between Shoulder Pad and Shield - so their left side is fully armored, with no gap.

Rannik the White Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 I know how you feel about the legs, the the karate kid pose looked to dumb to use. I have ten of the original Wulfen and they are smaller but they wok. The new Wulfen are a huge pain to put together.

mactire Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 That is some close up. Paintjob holds though, don't worry about that. They look good but I'm still not a fan of the paws.

mactire Posted June 27, 2019 Author Share Posted June 27, 2019 Threw together a second one today. Used full Reiver body with Wulfen arms and head. Might not be able to see it, but I've added shoulder pads as well.
