To be honest there wasn't a whole lot done until the army painting challenge started. I have to say it's been excellent for keeping me motivated, as I seem to work best to a deadline. I'll try and get a group shot up soon.There looks like there are a hell of a lot of them. Any chance of an army shot. You seem to be making very swift progress.
Shouldn't be too long Midge, I'm off work for a couple of weeks with nothing better to do except paint. I might even get a bit ahead of myself.Looking good KF! Love the use of the WoC parts and I look forward to seeing the LS all painted up.
He sure does, and he's going to have some help from an iron priest mounted on a tamed juggernaught and the new Ogre mournfang mounts. I've preordered a box because I think this is the closest we'll get to thunderwolf cavalry. Besides, they're cool models.great looking as ever. Man, that thunderwolf looks like it could chew the arm off some heretics too!!
Would you believe I used my neighbours mongrel as a kind of template for the pelt? He's a shaggy sheep dog cross, but the hair on his head is shorter with less colour than the rest of the coat. I copped it while looking out the window while painting. Strange, where you can get ideas from.:biggrin: As to the TWs, I'm having to seriously fight the urge to start these guys now at the expense of the LS I have left to paint for this month's painting challenge entry.The Rune Priest is looking good though the head of the pelt could use a bit more highlighting. It looks a bit darker than the rest of the pelt.
I look forward to seeing the Big wolf and the Juggy riding Iron Priest.
Thanks Boc. They do, dont they? I found the tute online, and it has since been refined here. It's a great blog for the SW lovers out there.Great looking models all around, especially enjoying the WoC conversions, they work incredibly well as SW.
Their entry in the codex says that tracking and capturing a TW is thought to be an intitiation to the higher ranks of the WG. They are considered an elite within the WG, an already elite formation, which says a lot about them. The traditional black and yellow will do the job.Have you had any thoughts of the shoulder pad color on your wolf rider?
It hit me yesterday that I don't know what kind of pack-type they belong to. I found a vague reference to them being wolf guards?
