Dried's Space Wolves

[Dried]

Hello everyone,

Here is the Phobos Lieutenant I painted to go with my infiltrators I posted last week (don't hesitate to click on the picture if it's blury).
It's obviously totally based on @Wispy's kitbash he posted a few months ago. As I said in the first post, his kitbashes were a real inspiration for me and pushed me to explore some stuff I won't have done otherwise (and maybe my SW army won't even exist yet).
So hats of to him and this mini is my tribute to him.

I'm not sure what to do next (I'll start a Bretonnian army I think in a few weeks) so maybe I'll won't post for a while here.

Hello everyone, long time no see!

 

My Bretonnian army is now quite big and I'm really proud of it (~1500 points... Painting an Old World army is not a small project), but now that we'll get new magnificent miniatures I decided to go back on my Space Wolves a little.

 

So I kitbashed this little Iron Priest. I'm really proud of the result, I hope you like it too!

Niiiiice work.  That cabling is blowing me away, is that done by hand or one of the Green Stuff World rollers?

I used the green stuff rollers. I honestly don't think it's possible to do it by hand without a similar tool.

Even using a roller, it looks awesome!

Like everyone here I received my Army Set and having a lot of fun building the new minis.
Honestly i didn't saw it in gw's pictures but the jump in quality compared to the previous Space Marine I built is impressive.

I magnetized my Headtakers :

I also magnetized both arms of the battle leader and tried to do a Lukas the trickster like for my blood claws (like everyone else I assume).

I read the codex also and I REALLY like the Runemarked symbol. I may switch my great company for my next minis and it already fits my "red" background for my great company symbol.

I made a Runemarked logo with the help of a friend :

amazing work, dried!

Hello everyone,
I painted my converted Iron Priest, and I decided to switch my great company to the Runemarked for my futures SW.

His very simple lore, I wrote to explain a few painting decisions :

Spoiler

Harman the Ironbreaker is a proud Space Wolves Iron Priest. He decided to keep the great wolf symbol on his shoulder to put his assigned GC symbol on his knee symbol, now the Runemarked. 

Grievously hurt on Armageddon where Orks took his arm he crossed the Rubicon Primaris. He sti keeps parts of his old armour, now painted in red to honour the priesthood of Mars which formed him. 

He kept a furious hatred again the Greenskins and The hall of Fang now echoes of multiple Sagas where Ironfang is destroying an ork metal creature.

Nice work on the Iron Priest, looks amazing,  I have yet to make a start on my Space Wolf Army box, just finishing the last model from the Leviathan box (the captain as a WGBL)

Hi everyone,
I just finished my first minis from the last refresh.
I loved painting the faces honestly. They are so cool, maybe the best marines faces I ever painted. Can't wait to paint the rest.

First the Wolf Guard Terminators:
 
And the Headtakers Wolves:

Great stuff. Yea the face sculpts are really good with the Wolves. You've done them great justice. Love the basework too!
