Reiver heads


Jarl Caldersson

Recommended Posts

I just used the ones on the box, painted the models traditional Reiver colours and made the face masks look like bone.

 

Tbf if you go with normal space wolf heads (unhelmeted) you could lore that the howls of the hunting pack are unnerving to their foes

Couple thoughts:

 

- i like the upcoming grey slayer leaather masks for this

- i'm hoping the deathsworn have some cool heads to work with.

- wolf heaad shaped helmets?

- in a pinch, add some stylized war paint or tattoos on the regular reiver heads

a person on FB suggested Grey Slayers and Deathsword heads also, which is a good suggestion.

Wolf heads? *shudders* poor Robb Stark. Wulf Skull would be cool, but wolf priest.

Ware paint is a good suggestions if the Grey Slayer release isn't up to snuff.

 

Wish we had Reiver Lt's for support. This lack of Primaris options is infuriating. I want to accept a certain faction of Primaris and yet they have a several sever flaws. Oh well painting them should be fun.

I've used Wulfen heads, and did some converting, merging reiver heads and wulfen heads, and well the results are pretty amazing. I'll get around to posting pictures sometime, but I held off on finishing them as I am awaiting the wolf codex to see if I can build them any differently

Triszin, you got some pictures of the Wulfen/Reiver head conversion? 

 

I'm hope you took the face-mask of the Reiver and top of the Wulfen head and not the other way round? ;-)

aye sir that I did.

 

found the test model

 

still need to clean it up a little

This guy looks amazing, the pose looks like his bounding along, reminds me of a creature in a film, want to say one of the Planet of The Apes films, but not sure, amazing anyway!  I want one.

LOL, that guy looks like a trip to the hairdresser went bad. The hair size reminds me of Bon Jo vi back in the day.

 

For me, I use the wolf like helms which I've been saving from the Grey Hunter sprues, so that they look uniform. Then give the sergeant the wolf helm from the Upgrade Pack to differentiate him from the rest.

Hah, found this thread by accident. Really awesome conversion! Almost tempts me to build some SW Reivers as well....if I didn't already have my Sanguinary Guard Reiver conversion and if I wouldn't think that Reiver are pretty much the worst Primaris unit rules-wise. :P

What are this "Upcoming slayer leather mask" if I may ask?

Here's the first series of pictures I managed to find: http://battlebunnies.blogspot.ca/2018/01/vlka-fenryka-upgrade-packs.html?m=1

 

Forge World has already shown previews of the Grey Slayers pack they'll eventually sell for the Vlka Fenrika's iconic 30k unit...
