Hi there!

Here's a tutorial for those who know that real men wear fur!!! (sorry for this one )

Basically it's about adding a WoC cloak to your CSMs models (to make chosen ones for example), but you can use it for space wolves as well
( or any feral world homebrewed chapter).

For this tuto I'll be showing the making of a CSM chosen one.

1) The bitz you'll need

-1 WoC front body
-1 WoC cloak
-2 arms from the CSM/SW sprue
-1 power armor breastplate
-1 shoulderpad
-1 head
-1 backpack (missing on the picture)

2) remove the WoC assembling elements from the cloak

you'll get this:

The space between the WoC shoulders is too narrow for the next step, you'll have to resize it a bit.


3) now you can put the breastplate in place:


4) once the breastplate is glued, you have to reshape the WoC shoulders like this:


5) Now take the shoulderpad and cut it in two halves like this:



6)Glue the two halves on both sides of the breastplate:


7)You can now glue the legs (no pics! did you really need it anyway? )
WARNING: you'll notice that the length of the cloak is the same as the lengt of the body. You'll have to adapt the base according to this point.

8) take the arms and reshape the shoulders like this:


9) Now put the arms in place and glue them:


10) Cut the fur off the WoC front body:

and glue them over both half shoulderpads, this way:



11) use Green Stuff to fill the space between the fur parts:

and shape it like fur:


12)file the cloak there:

this is where you'll glue the backpack:

like this:


Now glue it on a base, put a head on it and the job's done.

Here's one of my finished ones:


I will try to improve this technique (arms and shoulderpads) I'll post pics as soon as I'll get time to work on it.

I hope it will help you.

Hyenajoe.

Ooohh.. Interesting way to make champions. A nice and straightforward tutorial. I like it

I saw a guy with a army just like that nice to know how he did it

I may do this

So might I

I must do this for my chosen!

Wonderful, I was thinking about getting some warriors to do Doghouse's templar conversion with, this has just doubled the appeal of getting that set, many thanks.
