Back to Space Wolves, the Winterborn once more
Put in some work on the Honour Guard, trying to get them all to look heroic and unique. Think I succeeded too!
Also finished Fafnir Drakesbane and am getting closer to completing Lord Winterborn himself.
Have an awesome day, sometime this week. You've earned it!

Been working on some terminator Wolf Guard with frostblades, pleased with the results
Also, posted the wrong pic of my Contemptor's shoulderpad so I'll fix that now

Thoughts on this one, if you please:
The Winterborn have a second Contemptor on the way, to be named Torin Shieldbreaker. Once a bloody-handed reaver of Fenris, now a bloody-handed reaver of the 6th legion, I'm thinking I might make him out of the Death Guard contemptor, or perhaps the Iron Warrior one, to represent extra armour, with a siege claw from a Decimator Daemon Engine and a scratch-built chainfist like the one on the Cerastus Knight Acheron.
What do you reckon?

Working on the Wolf Priest, and found some Wargames Factory Samurai. Not sure what I'll do with them, just yet.
Also started repainting my Wood Elf army that I started back in '02, using a White Dwarf list. The core units back then were Archers and Spearmen, and over the few incarnations of the army book my Archers have become Glade Guard, while my Spearmen ave become Eternal Guard, possibly the most useful Elven core unit in the current run of Army Books. Thinking of later branching out into an Army of the Eternity King, just to add some heavy armour and such to the list. Posting a pic of the old paint scheme and (lack of) skill, and a newer attempt. Anyway... On to pics!

Thanks Desubot! I like the finished piece too, although the conversion was touch and go for a bit... Still, beats buying another cyclone launcher!
For your viewing (dis)pleasure, Dakka, I have some more Wood Elves!
More pics of the test Eternal Guard model, bit dark though... Sorry about that
Also a Wardancer I kitbashed
Next up on the desk - for the Elves, at least- some soon-to-be-converted Steeds of Kurnous!
More pics to come later today, of Elves and Wolves alike!

As promised, more!
One of the coolest (I thought) units in the old Wood Elf army book were the Alter Kindred, elves who had melded with an aspect of nature and taken on animal traits. Something like good beastmen. Unfortunately you could only make individual characters part of this kindred, but I always planned to do a unit of cavalry as centaur-elves. With the new army book, that option is no longer present.... But Forgeworld in their wisdom has provided me an out!
In the Monstrous Arcanum book there's an entry for Bull Centaur Renders, nasty Chaos Dwarf/ bull hybrids. I've decided to Elf that up a bit...
Also, received some Ebay goodness in the form of the original Wulfen models from the 13th Black Crusade days. Adding them to a few conversions to make some Death Company for unbound 40K games

Small update on the Winterborn, their Breacher squad. Nearly done, need to finalise the painting and basing, and scratch build some more helmets.
Also the terminator squad with frostblades are almost complete. Pics later tonight I hope

So, Terminators aren't quite finished. Working... But I do have some completed Honour Guard for the Winterborn, and some new kitbash/ conversion models for my Elves. Decided to go a restricted Host of the Eternity King for the army, so I have a Sister of Avelorn and a Dark Rider
Lemme know your thoughts!

So a productive night building and painting!
Just started a d20 roleplaying game, post-apocalypse setting, and converted some of the characters for that; everything from a half-giant in plate armour to a cowgirl with a powerfist!
Also painted a Reaper Bones Storm Giant as a Jotun to go with my growing, unofficial, non-Chaos Norse army for WHFB
A Forgeworld dreadnought and a Storm Raven received some brush love too, alongside my test 'wolf for a new way to paint World Eaters colours
Lasltly, some spirit dogs for my Elves; thinking I might use the rules for Wolf Rats for them

Hey Zywus!
They're from the wargames factory apocalypse survivors kits. Also where the pistol and crowbar came from

Thanks, I didn't recognise those heads were in that kit.
How is the size of those wargames factory heads compared to GW models? Would they look small on a marine or guard body?

Zywus, unfortunately they're too small for either Marine or Guard. They're thinner and smaller than any GW 40K heads, 'true' 28mmm rather than heroic scale.
That being said the survivor models actually make decent Guard equivalents, IMO

Been hard at work but managed to complete very little, lots of ink washes that need to dry
On the table atm we have a trio of Ents, an Arachnarok spider, a giant I'm in the process of armouring, a Zoat, a Truthsayer, 3 Dragons including the skeletal one I posted earlier, a Carnosaur, an old Hydra, a Chimera, a Manticore, a Ghorgon, 2 Griffons and an Arcane Phoenix. The blending on the phoenix is a pain! I'm trying to match the picture in Monstrous Arcanum, to no avail.
I also have a kitbashed Loremaster, and some Dark Riders and a Tirranoc Chariot for my Elves, and the Winterborn Honour Guard is 80% painted, although no bases done yet, and a greenstuff and bitz dragon I still haven't finished building
Anyone with any tips on how to blend the colours of the Phoenix, please let me know

Ah, I suspected the heads would be incompatible. The models sure are nice though. I'll probably get a box if I can find them locally (International shipping costs is murderous from WGF themselves).
Really like that dragon, though the pics are a bit hard to make out. I think you need to photo it against a less busy background. The head reminds me of the dragon skull on the GW giant sprue. Is it that bit with sculpted scales of is it from an existing dragon?

Zywus, the head is the spare from the High Elf dragon kit with some Dryad bits for horns/ branches
Took some new photos of the dragon, and some background
He's a dragon found in the Deepwoods, lair of all kinds of unpleasant forest spirit-y things. One of the spirits in there took over the body of a fallen green dragon, rebuilding the shattered skeleton with tree and plant life, bound together by magic
I built him from spare bits and lots of green stuff, with Balrog wings. I'm hoping I can resurrect the model, because I really don't want to restart the model
On to pics!

Evening all! It's bloody cold, perfect weather for hobby!
Dug out some wizards, all for the Elves of course; a Zoat, a few High Elves and a converted Alter Elf/ Brayshaman kinda dude
Also added to my dragon collection with a rendition of Asarnil the Dragonlord. So many flying creatures! My desk resembles a prehistoric landing pad....
Also working on an Incarnate Elemental of Death, and a rethink of my Deepwoods dragon
And for those who thought I'd forgotten the Wolves, a Predator Infernus on the build, with additional armour, a new front end and a converted driver!
Enjoy!

Back again! (people run screaming)
Still working on the Fintmancha rebuild, added some bitz just need to build the base and body, and I hit on an el cheapo build for a chaos dragon using spare parts, I figure if the mages of my Elves can bind creatures they'd have no issue sending a chaos beastie to die for them
Also some WIP shots of the Predator Infernus for your viewing pleasure, some of the Krakenspawn, now with handler, and some energetic Fenrisian wolves dodging city terrain
Enjoy!

So, a little more work has yielded an undercoated squad for the Winterborn, an Elf wizard-warrior on a griffin built from a very damaged secondhand Prince Araloth and bits, and a Wolf Lord, Hrolmir Wyrdbane
