Examples of retro stripe camo space wolves?

[ranulf the revenant]

Hey, I was playing around with the idea of painting my phobos units similar to the tiger stripe camo pattern from way back (way before I even was into SW). I looked into it today, but found very little examples of marine models painted that way. Does any of you know of examples for this scheme (extra points for a tutorial)?


This is what I mean, I think it's from 1st edition?

Yeah that is back when they were almost regular marines except for enlarged canines.

 

What you want to search for is painting tiger stripe camo on model tanks on youtube.

I was toying with a similar idea of camo stripes and looked at these from Green Stuff World:

In the end I went for these (although I've not used them yet):

That's another idea, but I probably wouldn't want to apply that many decals to a model. Not exactly my favourite process anyway :D

I guess I'll follow something like this, but starting from something like storm vermin fur and exchanging some colours...
