Post subject: | Epic Space Wolves |
So, a whole time ago I showed you all my Epic Ork Horde In the meantime, I have painted up a Space Wolf army. As quite a lot of the figs in there are from the Old Skool, I decided to go for the old skool paintjob on 'em too ![]() The main reason I painted them was to have a second force ready for giving Epic demo's in my Club and should a friend be at my house without an army, we can still play ![]() here's what the army looked like when I bought/got it : ![]() And here's the different steps in which I painted the army : After two months of painting : A detachment of WhirlWinds ![]() A detachment of Bikers ![]() And a detachment of Land Speeders ![]() NTwo months after that : A detachment of Land Raiders ![]() A detachment of Tactical Marines ![]() And a Hunter (Space Marine flak) to protect my WhirlWinds from airborne-attacks ![]() yet another two months further : A detachment of Assault Marines ![]() A ThunderHawk ![]() A detachment of Long Fangs (Devastators) in razorBacks ![]() Their cloaks : ![]() After a forth 2 months : A Reaver Titan (gotta love 'em!) ![]() ![]() ![]() A detachment of Terminators ![]() And since everyone needs objectives in Epic… ![]() ![]() Yet another two months further : (almost there... almost) 2 Warhound Titans ![]() ![]() ![]() A Supreme Commander and a third objective ![]() That's 4K worth of Epic Space Wolves in under a year target acquired, locked and executed Here's a view on the whole army: ![]() ![]() ![]() I still need to make myself a second Thunderhawk though... and maybe a Drop Pod... Tell me what you think eh? |

Very, very nice looking army. By the way, what you're calling a Reaver Titan is actually a Warlord Titan. |

Great stuff Quase & I like the conversions & painting! That RT-Era plastic Ork plasma cannon fits in nicely on your Titan. ![]() So when do we get to see an Epic representation of your fantastic LaTD force? ![]() |

Thanks guys!!! ulric wrote: but can you explain me the difference between oldschool and newschool painting? since your oldschool look looks great It's th paintscheme that is old-skool, as in the colours I chose (e.g. the red weapons). But I do realise that I didn't explain that very clearly... Dwarf Supreme wrote: By the way, what you're calling a Reaver Titan is actually a Warlord Titan. Right... last game I proxied him as a Reaver... hence my slip of the keyboard ![]() Ghudra wrote: That RT-Era plastic Ork plasma cannon fits in nicely on your Titan. ![]() Hey, once an Ork... Ghudra wrote: So when do we get to see an Epic representation of your fantastic LaTD force? ![]() That's my 2011 project... currently trying to hoard all the figs and bits necessary for the new army... Still haven't decided wether it'll be LATD or Black Legion though... |

goblin green bases too, although you didn't go for that one. |

If I ever get around to making a gaming-tabletop @ home (oh the joys of playing in a club), it'll also be 'based' like this. |

Actually, I don't think I would encourage anyone to base his army in goblin green. Even if I still like many old school colour schemes, I always disliked those awful bases, personally. So I'm actually quite happy that you decided for another basing technique ![]() Nice work ! |

The next IWC is only a month or so away, so I wrote myself a little armylist... of Space Wolves this time (this will be my very first tournament which I'll attend without my faithful Orks) And for that list, I'm missing one Tactical Formation with a DreadNaught + a ThunderHawk, so I set myself to glueing and painting... Here's the result : ![]() |
