Can anyone recommend a source of decent 6mm/10mm wolves for use as fenrisian packs...?

Looking back through the forum i see there may have once been a forum-ware/were option but i guess that might be unavailable now...?

As my marines are in a color scheme of my own devising I'm not tied to the SW concept, so if decent wolves are hard to find i might also consider other "pack" options to proxy - bears / big cats / velociraptors...? The best i found so far are the Dropzone scourge giant worms... Anything that doesn't just look like a squidgy blob with four legs !

And available in the UK would be a bonus !

You could try to source some of the Battle of Five Armies wolves. They aren't too bad (slightly too large IMO) but they would fill the gap.

quick search pulled up
http://www.irregularminiatures.co.uk/6m ... antasy.htm
items
CR13 Five wolves
CR14 Five boars

================
http://www.microworldgames.com/collecti ... maulbeasts
These should be easily converted to use with a power armored soldiers and look solidly science fantasy if done so
(there's a few more beasties that could work in the other factions as well, e.g. Lizards)

I've seen the Irregular ones - lets say their reputation for iregularity is well deserved ! I think even i could sculpt better. ;)

I hadn't realised the bofa ones were so easily available on ebay. Not cheep, but best option so far, though it's a shame they follow each other nose to tail (though prob quite realistic if my dogs are anything to go by...) Has anyone had a go at splitting them?

I did.

The back wolf tends to have it's snout and foreleg damaged even with careful scalpel cutting but some greenstuff work could reinstate them. I had to do some detail repair on the tail of the one at the front too.
