Lords of the reverend Wolf: FROST WOLVES

This is a how to on building your own SPACE WOLVES Unit: I didn't build one unit, but 1 lord, 1 rune priest, 3 royal hq guardsmen, 1 Lieutenant , and 3 blood claws(including a sgt.).

Im planning on buying three to four more of these box sets, it was quite exciting building and designing my own specific figures.

The division/army Ive created is the FROST WOLVES, Here lies a step by step how to I made my custom wolves

Lord of the Frost Wolves: 

 I Started with glueing the Wolf Guard banner to his back Pack, Then i glued his chest Piece together followed by glueing the legs under neath, I chose to use all the fury bits for him, to create a wolf shall over top, the legs didnt fit the best!

 Out of all the heads I chose to use the Lords head with the four braids. I glued the back pack on, then His head and chose for him to have the Power shield and power hammer.

 +The lord of Wolves Complete+

Four shots of The LORD completed, Sadly Ive yet to name this beast or create most of the fluff for him! 

The Rune Priest

 I wanted to create a priest that resembled ulrik the Space wolf rune priest, but had a more shaman-esk feel to him and make him less robotic looking.

 I began by building the chest oeice, i used the back fur wolf legs cape, for the frost i used a golden eage flag chest piece, I then chose and glued a pair of legs on. I took an extra back and cut off the dangle rune like necklace (as seen on the right|) this is going to be a shaman war necklace.

 My next idea was to take the extra power hammer (the same style one used on the lord) I cut the hammer off of it and filed it down to make it flat. Next i took the eagle banner for th back pack, glued a wolf skull on to it then mounted it on the power hammer to make a rune priests POWER CROZIER!

 Next I glued a Power sword on his left arm, I chose not to use a hand gun mostly because i like the fully mele concept of him, to close combat weapons, and pyschic abilities make for a powerful close combat foe. The last couple customs I did was addidng two wolf tail talismans on his necklace, adding his back pack with skull head,adding a sheathed blade to his right side and finishing it off with his shoulder pads

The unnamed  Rune Priest!

All the fluff and back story seem to come together when I begin painting them it really seems to breath  life into the figures

Heres a collection of pictures from the last couple figures that were put togther!! 

The Lords Son: Guardian of the holy Relic 

 Son of the lord, Captian of the holy wolf guard entrusted by his father to guard the space wolves ancient holy buriel relic from the enemy horde and invaders!

The creation of the other guards men, the Captian's twin, and their little brother. With the good old rune priest in the back!

Ill start this weeks posts of first with my little purchase from Games-Workshop:
One black Reach box set, and One box of Space Wolves (10 man customizable pack)

Im not gonna lie, I was so excited to receive it, and it only took 4-5 days!!!
On to the next post: Lords of the reverend Wolf: FROST WOLVES

FLY YOUR STANDARD HIGH: let our enemies fear the wrath of GOLDHELM!

The STANDARD BEARER of the GOLDENHELM Spacemarine division, serving under LORD PALADIN GOLDHELM the III is complete!!!

The Standard Bearer Complete with his fellow Spacemarine!!!

++++"Fight to the last man, know your sacrifice is in dedication not just to the empire, but for the freedom of all humanity!!!" Lord PALADIN GOLDHELM the III, in the defense of Garrack hill++++

Stay Tuned this evening for a how to on Styrofoam/clay dioramas and then tomorrow..

"The Last Stand of the Mighty GOLDENHELM!!"

GOLDEN HELM the II, Marine that is!!

Here are the rest of the photos taken of the GOLDENHELM Marine! 

 

 

   This morning I begun construction on what I had originally planned on making the Fallen Standard Bearer, however he has more life then expected!!

  Hopefully by tomorrow morning ill have more then just the base coats done!

Heres a run down on what I had to do:
I removed the Spacemarine Captain's back pack and standard bearer from his back, which proved to be quite difficult (over glued).

• Then I removed  the chaos skull emblem from the top of the Standard and put it aside for my wolf guard Terminators  helmet. 

• I then cut off the right vertical pole end, as the left one came broken with the Captain.

•  The most daunting task of all was removing the Captain's Eagle crest from his back/shoulders and then glueing it to the top of the standard! 

• Finally I glued the backpack and standard on the Spacemarine with the skeleton logo on his helm he looked best suited for the job, and at last its done, and complete.

• Last but not least I Primed him and began painting ( remember to do all your customization, knifing, edge removal touch ups, and green stuff before you prime haha)! 

  I had planned to make the Spacemarine Standard Bearer fallen, holding the banner upwards but I was too eager to make a living standard bearer after I completed the standard!! I do plan to have a fallen soldier standard bearer part of the GOLDENHELM in the near future!!

Ive got to finish the last couple coats this evening, do some wash coats in the morning to darken everything up, then highlights, then gloss!!! Finished pictures will be posted tomorrow

Here he is with his brother in arms... 

+GOLDENHELM divisions' Standard Bearer with his loyal Guardsmen+

STAY TUNED FOR TOMORROW...

Ill post twice once after the Standard Bearer is complete (3pm-5pm) and then again (6pm-10pm) for "The last stand of the mighty GOLDENHELMS"

SPACEMARINES: The GOLDEN HELM!

Chimera Miniatures is proud to announce my first painted SPACEMARINE ever! not to mention my first painted miniature! The army which he serves, and is loyal to, will be the GOLDEN HELM, serving under LORD PALADIN GOLDHELM the III.

 ~                                                     ~

 + GOLDEN HELM GUARDSMAN+

Chimera Miniatures purchased this set of 6 Spacemarine guard (which is where the GOLDEN HELM SPACEMARINE is FROM), and one captain from CALEBFILMS/WHITE METAL GAMES off ebay, the quality was good and so was the price, however some of the build needed work, which I was happy about.

This is the picture in which was taken by calebfilms before the purchase, when I received them I was happy with the quality, and the build, I however didn't like the position of the arm, or the direction of the Captains' Power Sword...

...luckily it was only lightly glued, I removed the arm, cut down the area and reattached it to face forward in a more striking motion...

After I removed the arm, faced it forward and re-glued, I notice that the arm looks free of armour, and skin like with veins, which is perfect!!
Im planning on using this Captain  for my Spacewolves division, Im removing the broken banner flag and turning him into a wolf captain which ill create the fluff for! the division will be the FROST WOLVES. It'll take lots of customization to make him lord of such a division, but it can be done!

Ive ordered the BlackReach boxset and the multi part Spacewolves pack, my next order will be, well large and more complex. The black reach set will be for myself, my girlfriend, and little brother to play and become accustomed to the rules, the next purchase from games workshop will be to build our individual armies,mine being the Space wolves and the Black Templars, Danielle (my girlfriend) will be the sisters of battle, and my little bro Phil has his heart set on CHAOS MARINES!!! I'm looking forward to helping him paint them!!! should be a challenge, the purchase im sure will be well over a couple grand. lol...

as for the black reach set..
Ive got major custom plans for the warboss, and his slaves.. He'll Be Warbosss SKINWALKER, the collector of skullz...Stay tuned fo the customization posts!!
The ULTRAMARINES will actually be turned into the rest of the GOLDEN HELM. the new non broken Captain will Become Lord PALADIN GOLDHELM (an army I will eventually sell, if your interested?)
The removed banner from the first captain will be put on a base, with a dead GOLDEN HELM marine as a fallen standard bearer!!!

Stay tuned for more updates, and posts (ill do a post on how I paint miniatures, both dry brush and wash, as well as priming your figures)

 If your interested, Id be willing to do special customs that come with back story, fluff and artwork for a great price! send me an email and we can discuss the detals...

LOYALTY to the Empire!!
