Wonderful work. My favourite has to be the beardy long fang. I love models with long hair/beards as I'm swinging that way myself (Hair anyway) and there's just not enough GW models like that. Rep for the inherent badassery.

You mentioned using ML's and HB's in the same squad though. That doesn't seem like it will work very well. The ML's are longer range, so you'll be wasting at least one extra turn getting your HB's into range when you could have been pouring out long range loving. I'd take Plasma Cannons and HB's in the same squad, and ML's and Lascannon together.

Cheers Dream Thief for the advice on the Long fangs. Now I must rebuild them, but as I have not applied the HBs yet there shouldn't be to much of a hazzle.
There might be some problems with their poses but I can just make a couple of new ones and use those models for something else.

ANd PM, indeed there's a difference between making loyalists and chaos models. Especially in the beginning when Nurgle is more about applying GS and adding tentacles and the like. But since I've done a fair share of Thousand Sons and Imperial Guard I gotten quite used to them sharp edges and clean lines.
But still, them freakier Chaos models are quite a relief.
Still, like someone greater than me once said "fantasy art demands extreme realism".


I've got some work done on the Rune Priest today, he's got arms now. I used his original powerfist as a left hand and made a new one for his right. But I tend to think they look a bit too varying in size, so I might redo one of them, not really sure yet. I mean he won't be armed with them anyway...but they do give him that "Hey, I'm carrying an armour weightin the same as a car"-look I really like.
I'll make some more work with the gs:ed one to see if I can make them look a bit more alike, but that's for another day

That rune priest is looking rather awesome, if I may be so bold as to say. I didn't like the look of the picture so much before you put arms on it, I thought it looked a bit too stunted with the real face on a termie body, but it's definetely taken shape now

So... you have started without me... I'll fix you for that! Nah... just kidding!

The Long Fangs go along well as I can see. I really like bearded Space Vikings holding big guns. I think, as Dream Thief said, that the combo of ML and HB is not to playable. I would prefer to see 4 HB or 4 Lascannons or something along those lines... although my Wolf Fangs have all guns applied... That's another issue altogether.

The Rune Priest looks rather impressing. Especially the hood hiding most of his face! And I really like the hands. The one resting on the rune staff and the other like inviting the enemy to come closer... I have an issue with the foot and the GS joining it with the rest of the foot and the little GS blob under the other foot. But I'm sure of your talent and know that you will be making more of them!

On a side note. The list looks impressive. I will be joining along to see...

A beer from the finest in the Fang for you my friend!

Ah, his feet, they are far from finished my friend.
I have but cut one of them off and the GS youreffer to as a blob, is actually just a blob at this stage
I'll fix his feet once the rest is done, the cloak and all. I've been considering giving him some slightly bigger armour on the legs, like Scibor's models has but I'm not sure I have skill enough -I might give it a try though.

I'll go dig up my old Chaos Hounds now as I'm pretty sure they might make fine companions for the Space Wolves.

I'll also change the weaponry of them LongFangs.

Keep advice and critisism coming

I have some Wolves sitting around... maybe I can send them to you... Just tell the word!

[BDJV]

What can I say......

Brilliant!

Inspiring!

OutFrakin'standing!

It'll be great being able to watch your outstanding work on your Wolves while I work on mine.

I realy like the wolf gaurd with the spear. It will look great when you have painted it. He is very unique but I can't get the idea out of my head that they look like tall dwarves.

Anyway...

Rep!

AHem... I don't want to insult you man and don't take it the wrong way but the one you describe is a Rune Priest. That's the equivelant of a Librarian to a Space Wolves army...
