KBA Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Hello! Long time lurker coming out of the shadows here.Any comments welcome!Wolf Lord/Wolf Priest/Rune Priest Demon Princehttp://img163.imageshack.us/img163/2272/dpfront.jpghttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg845/scaled.php?server=845&filename=dpleft.jpg&res=landinghttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg140/scaled.php?server=140&filename=dpright.jpg&res=landingPlague ClawsPitted a lot of the MkIV stuff. In general, chopping and hacking away at expensive FW stuff feels wrong, but I'm liking the look of plagued out MkIV assault. Might add some more wolf bits on him, but I'm kind of hesitant to make the model too busy. A lot already going on with the Nurgle stuff, so maybe the dilapidated painted wolf armor will do the trick. Maybe helmet-less might have been the way to go. 6 more to make, so I'll have to give it a shot!http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/1691/plagueraptorfront.jpghttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg823/scaled.php?server=823&filename=plagueraptorright.jpg&res=landinghttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg72/scaled.php?server=72&filename=plagueraptorleft.jpg&res=landing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 A very good start! I look forward to seeing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 An intriguing idea to be sure - and the charm is in the fact that it's not the usual Wolves/Khorne lash-up that everyone else does. I'll be watching this closely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Thanks for the comments, guys. It's going to be a fun, rewarding project. Glad to go somewhat original in the idea. With a universe as whacky and insane as I am, it'd feel wasteful to not explore the possibilities :) WIP Champion for the raptors squad: http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg856/scaled.php?server=856&filename=championfront.jpg&res=landing http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg401/scaled.php?server=401&filename=championback.jpg&res=landing Still need to greenstuff some rope to the skeleton on the back. Excited to add pustules to his face, and rot to the sores I burrowed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThisisJimmy Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 These are great mate, loving the theme and the skin wolf/Daemon Prince looks absolutely fantastic. Looking forward to seeing more from you :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAngelDelight Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I really love this idea, Nurgle Space Wolves sounds really original to me. I wish i'd have thought of that! You have so many conversion opportunities and I'll be interested to see what ideas you can conjure up. Keep it up! Also, the raptor, he's immense!

KBA Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 Melta specialist! My GS talents are rudimentary at best, but its interesting stuff to work with. Need some better tools than just a razor. Four more to follow in the squad! http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg831/scaled.php?server=831&filename=metlafrrrront.jpg&res=landing http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg89/scaled.php?server=89&filename=meltabackz.jpg&res=landing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rednekkboss Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 The long-time Space Wolf player in me says "The depths of your Heresy *shudder* knows no bounds *squinty grimmacing snarl* The long time Nurgle devotee in me says "Not sure why I haven't thought of that." Lovely stuff. Really dig the Deamon Prince. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EgoDraconumNigrorum Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Nurgle Space Wolves...... Now thats a concoction that I never thought I would see. But I have to say they look brilliant! ;) - EgoDraconumNigrorum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBA Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 Thanks for the comments guys! Really appreciate it. Would love to see others have a go at the idea as well. Too much potential for one army from one mind. To celebrate the release of the new codex and models, as well as my 6th anniversary of lurking this awesome forum, I give to you my count-as Typhus! I really wanted to stay away from count-as, but reading the new book, he's just too good for the points. http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg685/scaled.php?server=685&filename=typhuscountas.jpg&res=landing http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg191/scaled.php?server=191&filename=typhuscountasside2.jpg&res=landing http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg228/scaled.php?server=228&filename=typhuscountasside1.jpg&res=landing Some (tons of) people hate on finecast, but without it, I don't think I would have been able to pull off as clean a conversion. Really easy to work with! I'm thinking of GS'ing a wolf pelt ontop of the destroyer hive. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBA Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 A rotting, pestilent wolf pelt by any chance? :) Absolutely! I'm going to take inspiration from the banner included in the Forgeworld Space Wolf dread. Having some of the skull exposed with rotten flesh should be plenty nurgle!

Azekai Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 These models are terrific- I am going to keep a rheumy eye on this thread! Any plans to make I a hideously mutated thunderwolf? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any plans to make I a hideously mutated thunderwolf? :) Thank you! I'm thinking of a lord on a count-as palanquin of nurgle. Just sickly looking, all bloated, with a hoof (or four!). :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 Very early WIP pics of my Maulerfiend, former Iron Priest, Sven Black Claw. The fates have been cruel to him! My usual opponents love bastions and armor, so this should help with those. Wanted a wolfy look, so I shortened the neck and added the bigger hind legs. Tufts of fur protruding from spaces in the armor will be fun. http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg28/scaled.php?server=28&filename=maulerfiend1.jpg&res=landing http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg96/scaled.php?server=96&filename=maulerfiend2.jpg&res=landing Needs to be more nurgly though. I'll do the normal chips and rot, but need something extra I can't put my finger on.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RolandTHTG Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 For the Mauler Feind, maybe have some of the plates/spikes be broken off, add a sense of ruin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted October 9, 2012 Author Share Posted October 9, 2012 Thanks for the compliments! They really help me take the axe to the wood on this one. More Maulerfiend pics, stage 2 WIP! http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/839/wolfmaulerfront1.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/89/wolfmaulerside.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/13/wolfmaulerfront2.jpg Added some fur, the nurgling from Typhus's base, and a small nurgle touch of some singular horns on the ghoul faces on the smoke stacks. Having read the fluff entries for the fiends in the codex, I'm not sure if this beast will be former Iron Priest, Sven Black claw himself, but instead his trusty thunderwolf, Black tooth! I may take off the stacks and add the Iron Priest riding the Maulerfiend. Decisions, decisions. Anyway, this kit is great! Decided to go less spikey so the singular, iconic nurgle horns stick out amongst the (no pun intended) chaos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curse my GS skills. I need to check up some tutorials. I think, though, that I'll definitely be adding a rider to this beast. Feels like a massive thunderwolf from hell!

HellChyld Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Now this is nurgle I can get into. Excellent conversion work! Looking forward to updates!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 Sven Black Claw on his twisted thunderwolf, Black Tooth. The thunderhammer he's carrying will count as a pair of magma cutters. The Nurgle motif is repeated in several places. The paint will make this sucker pop. I'm happy with where it is, and am excited to get back to smaller figs. http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/809/maulerfiend1.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/210/maulerfiend2.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/196/maulerfiend3.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/585/maulerfiend4.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/690/maulerfiend5.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/10/maulerfiend6.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
