Hey!
Well... my 40k Space Wolf Terminator squad is finally done!
I wanted to start this project a long time ago... when these minis first came out! However, after being lazy and not ordering them for a long, long time (the expense was also a bit much I thought, and continue to think...) I finally broke.
I knew sort of what I wanted... a squad of five Wolf Guard, mounted on cool bases, with the commander having a pet white wolf.
So! I got the set, picked up some bases, threw them together...
I wanted to do them all in grey tones, with the weapons being in a lighter beige/grey mix. I really wanted them to be simple, simple figures.
I also had to do a few beards out of greenstuff... I think they look fine, but I learned from the first one to the third one!:)
The wolf for the captain is from a pack from Ral Partha... there are a bunch of left-overs now, and I have nothing to do with them! I actually had to do a bit of sculpting around the wolf, as the base was impossible to cut off... so I had to make the stone precipice he is standing on out of green stuff.
I did two with close combat weapons and two with storm bolters... obviously I didn't go with a really powerful game setup (no Cyclone) but I liked the look... simple and mean.
Also, I didn't do any Space Wolf insignia... I like to think of them as more armored warriors of old.
I liked the back of the guy with the claws... I put the wolf tail talisman on him almost as if he attached it to represent an actual tale!:)
Anyway... I am happy with how they turned out.
Anyone have a guess what their approximate value would be? I don't think I'll sell them, but I would be curious to know!

I liked the way you posed those guys. Very unique! I also do the same thing with my 40k models, minus the paint. http://toothpic.imgur.com/
Very cool, I like your figures! A dynamic look is hard to get right, but a lot of fun when it IS right.
Thanks for coming by and saying hi!
