So its been a while since my last post, an arduous promotion course has seriously cut into my hobby time for the last six weeks. SO Im back and looking at my Space Wolves. Part of me wishes they were painted already, and the task at hand does seem quite daunting in a way.
In the meantime, whilst I am cultivating some motivation to finish my Scouts, Ill post these few images of the WIP of some of my characters. I am building some good backstory to a number of models in the army with a view to some short stories once I start gaming the army at my local clubs so I want to put a lot of effort into certain models/characters.
First up then is my Lone Wolf, I had a random old Dark Angel Sergeant lying around so I set to work. I wanted him to have a wild look about him so I modelled him some crazy long hair out of green stuff. Since this photo I have also added his power axe and he has been undercoated. I set myself the rule I must do a unit complete before a character, then back to a unit. I haven’t got so far… but Im going to try and finish my scouts at the weekend.
Next is my Wolf Priest. Built using the parts from the Space Wolf kits, you can see where I have added the Aquila to a cut down Thunder Hammer. I am pleased with the finished look to this guy. Again Ive already a name for him written in a note book ready to begin writing him up in story form once he has been bloodied.
As a final note to this post, here is a sneak at my WIP Scouts on the painting line.
