NKWulf Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 which miniatures do you use for wolf priests? i cant seem to find a specific WP model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halandaar Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 You can usually pick up the old metal Wolf Priest models for £6 or £7 on eBay, with the Gamesday exclusive one being closer to £25. If you need something more readily available (i.e. currently available direct from GW or FLGS), then your closest bets would be to use the Ulrik the Slayer model (he is a Wolf Priest, after all) or to user some Space Wolf bits to customise a normal Space Marine Chaplain.

Leif Bearclaw Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Or just a regular Marine model. I use a 'kitbash' which is just a stock plastic SW, with armour painted black and the wolf style helmet painted bone, plus a fancy FW sword from my bits box (I built him in 5th edition, back before power weapons split into multiple profiles).

Wispy Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 which miniatures do you use for wolf priests? i cant seem to find a specific WP model. because there isn't one. GW doesn't sell one anymore and that's a tragedy. it's an oversight that they need to correct soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 They never did a WP model. Just Ulrik. Take a standard Chaplain and kitbash with SW bits to convert your own WP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoyo ninja Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 NKWulf, they are usually black with a wolf skull helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamoH Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) I love the Ulrik character just think his pose is a little boring and want him wearing that helmet not carrying it. I’ve got a really good kitbashed wolf skull helmet made up, it’s just too big. Will have to see how it looks on a terminator, but then that rules out playing him as Ulrik anyway. So I plan converting the Blood Angels Junp Pack Chaplin to go with my Jump Pack wolf Guard converted from Raptors./Warp Talons Edited November 2, 2017 by DamoH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKWulf Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 Kit bashed the captain from the starter set with a load of wolfy bits and green stuff pelt on tbe cape. i am getting the resin GW figures. not sure if i can change out the bits and i am not skilled enough to be cutting and gluing pieces together.

Brother Hellion Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Normally I just use a kitbash model that utilizes a custom helmet that resembles an orks' skull. I always found it intriguing to see such a revered figure wearing the face of his enemy into battle as he sings battle hymns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainStabby Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 KF Studio makes a really good set of skull helms for kitbashing so you arent stuck with always having a bare bearded dude if you dont want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilkco Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I currently have a wolf priest on my list to make as well however wanted to make it look different from Ulrich, I have gone for the death-watch Chaplin model and use the wolf upgrade pack head with a wolfy gun and shoulders to make it look a bit in keeping with my other stuff.

Kasper_Hawser Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 The Dark Angel Interrogator Chaplain is a very good prospect for conversion. Just replace the legs with Grey Hunter legs, add wolf skull to the crozius, use a wolf helm from either the Update Sprues or Grey Hunter sprues, and add a left plasma pistol and presto! Decent Ulrik model or any other Wolf Priest model. To cover the chest iconography, shave them off and put some of the Wolf Guard terminator cruxes.

Stoic Raptor Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 So, in other words... remove anything distinctive and add everything that's needed? :D "Exactly like the old model, only different in every way."

Kasper_Hawser Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 So, in other words... remove anything distinctive and add everything that's needed? "Exactly like the old model, only different in every way." Pretty much what Space Wolves have to do for everyone of our models, from Devastators to Long Fangs, to our Wolf Lords, Battle Leaders and Iron Priests (at least until Curse of the Wulfen update happened) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoic Raptor Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 You don't have to tell me. When I started playing, Space Wolves had exactly one model - the guy with the wolf helmet. We've come a long way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
