They are fantastic! I love those bladeguards, they're exactly the type of norse looking primaris I love

 

I want to get some of those helmets, but $50AUD to get to me is a bit rich!

[Wispy]

not a fan of the helms but, man great use of the other bitz. good carving on those girdles, too.

[Bryan Blaire]

HV, are the helms smooth, or do they have some of the printing striations?

[HvitrValdyr]

Thanks all!

There are some striations but they are only visible on a very close look.

They really do help the look, but I was wondering if they smooth out more with a good priming, or are the striations still visible.

Regardless, you've put together some really nice looking Bladeguard!

Here is my take on a Space Wolves Judiciar. I added a wolf skull pommel in place of the regular one on the sword. Still trying to decide on a head for him and he will have some skulls on chains hung on his back but you get the idea of what it will look like.

The final step in a Wolf Priest’s training is to become a living embodiment of the chapter’s history. This requires more than a complete knowledge of the sagas and legends, the individual must serve as an example of the significance of such a storied past.
To become such an example, the inductee must live up to the chapter’s rumored original purpose by serving as the one of the Emperor’s Executioners. He takes as his weapon a symbol of execution. For some this takes the form of an enormous weighted sword, for others a traditional headsman’s axe. Regardless of the weapon’s type the charge is the same: to be the ultimate sanction against those who deny the will of the Allfather.
The candidate is taken deep within the Fang, to he Gate of Morkai, the place where he began his final test as a new recruit before tasting from the Cup of Wulfen. Here he takes an oath to Morkai, the guardian of the gates of death in Fenrisian lore, and is promised to the service of the Deathwolf til his days are ended.
Now dubbed Death Sworn, he is clad in armour of ancient design. The most dangerous parts of the armories of the Fang are opened to him. Particularly, he is given access to the deadly Yimiria class stasis bombs, relics from 10,000 years ago which can distort time around their target, ensuring their destruction.

Im into it, looking good , might steal the fluff bit as a base for my own stuff. 

[Triszin]

Awesome!!

Which deathgaurd body is that from?

I had the same thought aswell, judicar is just a 40k deathsworn!

Thanks!
It’s the guy circled in red. He comes with an alternate MKIII style chest piece which is the one I used.

Here is my take on a Space Wolves Judiciar.

The backstory is well-written. I hope to see the completed model soon.

I added a wolf skull pommel in place of the regular one on the sword.

Great idea!

Still trying to decide on a head for him and he will have some skulls on chains hung on his back but you get the idea of what it will look like.

My suggestion: Black-painted Custodes helmets, which are shaped like an executioner's hood. Alternatively, Mark III power armor helmets, or a Codex Chapter's Chaplain's skull helm (to show they're trusted with SOME of a Wolf Priest's duties, but have yet to prove themselves worthy of a wolf skull helm).

WIP Wolf Lord. Considering the barrel of mjod instead of the dead ork.

The barrel of Mjod! Fantastic!

[sbarnby71]

Definitely the barrel, amazing idea!

[Sandlemad]

That is an exceptionally elegant way to incorporate heresy-era SW background into the judicar, well done. Great conversion too.

[Rune Priest Jbickb]

Did you use sergeant Jovin as the base for this? I love it!

[Bryan Blaire]

looks like it, just with some subtle, but very flavorful, adjustments.

Looks really nice!

[HvitrValdyr]

Thanks everyone. Barrel it is!

It would be a crime to not use the barrel of Mjod! 

Not sure what you guys think but I think there should be a drinking horn or two next to the barrel as well

How about a drinking horn instead of the wolf trinkets he has in his left hand?

Wolfed up my Indomitus Eradicators. Just need to fill the hole in the gun.

My take on an embiggened Bjorn. Used arms and legs from an Invictor warsuit, I removed part of the hips to bring the legs into line with Bjorn’s chassis. He stands about as tall as a Contemptor which works for me as my Ven Dreads are based on Contemptor models. Assault Cannon and Lascannon are magnetised.

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Fine work on your enhanced Bjorn.

[Triszin]

awesome bjorn!

 

I like that we as a forum bounce ideas around and refine it more and more

 

 

IM gonna have to steal your magnetization idea on the gun arm, its brilliant and looks rad
