The VIth.

"I'll ask of the berserks, you tasters of blood,
Those intrepid heroes, how are they treated,
Those who wade out into battle?
Wolf-skinned they are called. In battle
They bear bloody shields.
Red with blood are their spears when they come to fight.
They form a closed group.
The prince in his wisdom puts trust in such men
Who hack through enemy shields."

Pict feed of an Unknown Astartes of the VIth Legion

Hello everyone, so a quick set-uup of my HH Rout Wip log. I will be leaving to China for a month soon but really wanted to start sharing my vision of the wolves ! I'll try to keep this up and running with fluff and minis asap. My main goal is to downsize the wolf wolfy wolf theme and focus on the more germanic/celtic/space vikings aspect of the Vith.

Since this is a WIP log, here's a dirty shot of what i'm working on, the rest of the pack, who will be played as a Cac veteran squad :

If all goes smoothly, i'll post the next brother and some fluff in the days before my departure smile.png

"Hearing I ask from the holy races, From Russ's sons,


both high and low; Thou wilt, Allfather,


that well I relate Old tales I remember of men long ago.


The sun turns black, earth sinks in the sea,


The hot stars down from heaven are whirled;


Fierce grows the steam and the life-feeding flame


Till fire leaps high | about heaven itself.


Brothers shall fight and fell each other,


And father' sons | shall kinship stain;


Yggdrasil shakes, and shiver on high The ancient limbs,


The giant is loose"



Loose transcription of Fenrisian Saga


( Nomen.457FSB - Völuspá -)

---Query - Incomplete pict- feed - { rectification needed } ---




So here is the follow up ! Thank you for the comments :) , i'm glad you like the runic patterns as im still experimenting color and shapewise. I think i am going to switch towards patterning not unlike the one on the first marines axe ( he's still wip - satchels and base need to be done - and i'm hesitant to change his faceplate markings). What do you think ?

First of all thank you for the comments, they are much appreciated and highly motivating !!



So compared to the first wolves i took a different approach to the armor markings, i like these better and will try to duplicate on further models :) The base and wolfskin cape aren't done and the model needs some more touches. It's a mix of calth Mk4 and SW sprue. I biggerised all of the wolves by adding a spacer in the torso so they stand visivly taller than vanilla ones . I'll post comparison pics when i get back.



I am leaving to China tomorrow so that will be it for updates until the middle of september. Hopefully the new HH box will be out and i'll get to play around with with mark III !
