Wolf Mother Space Wolf Ven. Dread
My project inspiration.

Pieces used for feet. Old dread feet, wire, and plastic tube to make the joints. I carefully drilled and re drilled many times to get them the way I wanted.

Torso and Leg Construction

The left arm construction. Ork dread arm bitz, marine arm bitz, some plastic card.

Torso was attached to legs.

I added some chainswords for extra teeth rows to the final project.

Coming together

Done.

 

[jamesknouse]

There were a few minor changes at the end. I scraped old paint off and changed up the feet. I also added some bling to the body and face. I also took the marine torso off the back and replaced it with some wolf decorations.

Goodtimes.

Wow!

 

[Wolfbane]

I was waiting for you to post this. It is an unbelievably sweet conversion. Well done!

 

[troybuckle]

Nice man, i can see you put a lot of work into this, i would like to see it painted!

Holy.......

Thanks guys. I am just glad to be done with the build. I will paint it up in a month or so. I started on my next build already and close to done. Iron Priest on "Thunderwolf" and Cyberwolves. Looking good so far...

Sneak peak

The Priest carries a bolter and a Thunder Hammer... Way to much to carry! I converted a Storm Bolter, Mechanicus artifact (A targeter in my world due to the bionic eye), and a Space Wolf Bolter.

.........What the..... sweet conversion.......just awesome.

 

[jamesknouse]

The reason the Iron Priest cant hold his Bolter...

More pics coming soon.

 

[Minizke1]

Oh you're a tease.

 

[jamesknouse]

What is an Iron Priest with beautiful pets? They are not complete yet. I am still working out their power plants and deciding if I like the Lightning Claws on them. They are cool but I need more of a “Mech look”.

Running with the Pack

I set the Cyberwolves next to other models in my army just to get the feel of them. Check out the old Grampa Iron Priest there… Painted him 10 years ago I think? Gramps has been watching over the new Iron Priests construction.

Thanks

Thanks BobPanda... I stumbled across your work a long time ago and your work has been an inspiration to me as well! I love your stuff! My Ven Dread was a inspiration based on your Dreadrider... Dig it!

I have some other ideas in the work. Maybe I could pick your brain over them...
