Chest of Colors forum

Hi everyone

I'll post mine army here. Sadly because of the massive amounts of commissions I have, there's less time to paint my own figures but still I had to do it sometimes :d You know, I have to play with something on the tournaments.
I divided my painting plan in two steps. The second one will be expanded but the first is a "plan minimum":

PaintPlanMinimum:

1) Runepriest - still under construction - converted from Grey Hunter. (100pts)
2) Wolf lord on thunderwolf with Lighting Claw ( I have two of those, one is converted from Canis Wolfborne, second from Khorne Lord on Juggernaut, still have to decide which one is going to be done first.) (ca. 250pts)
3)10 Grey Hunters with meltagun, Wolf Standard, Wulfen,incl. Wolf Guard armed with Power Fist and Combimelta + Rhino Transporter (243pts)
4)9 Grey Hunters with meltagun, Wolf Standard, Wulfen, incl. Wolf Guard armed with Power Fist and Combimelta and suited in Terminator Armour + Drop Pod (233pts)
5)5 Long Fangs with 4 Missile Launchers (115pts)
summary: 941pts

The Wolf Guard, Standard Bearers, Priest and Lord will be on higher lvls while the common troops will be at lvl 2-3.
I started painting 7 Grey Hunters with base colors yesterday. One is done to lead a pattern and be compared with.
Grey Hunters and Long Fangs will be a priority as they will build up fast and are easy to paint.
The paint scheme is relatively easy as I use only Foundation paints as first coats (over black or white).
Armour - Fenris Grey
Weapons - Mechrite Red
Skulls/pendants - Dheneb Stone
Gold NMM - Tausept Ochre
Silver NMM - Adeptus Battlegray
Bases are done in sand/snow.

PaintPlanMaximum:

5) Wolf Lord on Thunderwolf with Fist
6) Wolf Lord on Thunderwolf with Thunderhammer
7) Dreadnought (already started his armour I plan to paint him on a very high lvl)
Grey Hunters
9) Grey Hunters
10) Grey Hunters
+ 2 Rhino and 2 Drop Pods
11) Long Fangs - 4 missiles Launchers
12) Lone Wolf in Terminator suit
13) Some additional Wolf Guards in Terminators suits armed with various weapons.
14) Wolf Scouts

I'll add some pictures today

no eldar? odd

good luck Lothar! Wolves are my fav SM chapter, so it will be a pleasure for me to watch your progress

I just hate eldars But that's since my 3rd edition Chaos SM we're mutilated by their massive amounts of low AP weapons The first inv.save's for CSM was introduced by errating the Terminator Armour with 5+

Thanks for the "cheer up" I'll hope to attend some larger tournament buts thats impossible without having the army painted

this comment is surprisingly true

Space Wolves...

Good luck Lothar!

I uploaded some images, I had made them myself, I feel so proud right now obv im rather low skilled in photography,but still didnt have to ask my gf to do it

Nice idea using the new dread armour for a space marine chest plate

Thanks
Got two more of them as the venerable dread without it is imo better looking so i will have some retroterminators : D

I like the way you used a juggernaut for a wolf. Somehow I am not a huge fan of the official wolf miniature, so your choice may be the better way to go

And we have a space puppy tale hehe. Its good that they aren’t eldar hehe (there is so may of them and I wonder why hehe). I like the colors you chose for those miniatures and with the addition of a smooth painting and some repositioning/conversions I think they will be a very nice army to look at.
