So i bought a Shadowsword model for my combined IG and Space Wolves Apocalypse army. I'm building and modeling it to be Space Wolves based, but I don't want to build it quite yet until I can get some ideas for some cool modeling ideas. Also, I'm writing the name of the tank on the side in red gothic type. One problem, I have no possible names yet! So any ideas with both situations would be greatly appreciated.

I would suggest greenstuffing various wolf pelts around it... Actually even if there was just one rather big wolf pelt, nailed to the side of the tank (opposite to the side with the name as you said you were doing) kind of to show a trophy kill... I think that would look cool..

Make the driver (if there is one) with crazy hair of coarse... unless your not going for the crazy hair look (it is kind of.... lame... some times)

I wasn't thinking much in the way of pelts, but a lot of demon horns and whatnot as trophies. I was also thinking of mounting on the 100+ spare bitz i have from wolf guard terminators that do not fit on terminators at ALL, rather fit quite nicely on vehicles.

I was thinking something like that. Not quite sure if that would work out though.

A wolf head gun mantlet on the big gun would be way cool - but require some great greenstuff skills (unless you get lucky and find a perfectly sized toy plastic wolf to cut up).

I like the idea of trophy racks along the sides.

as for a name: HellFang ?

Wolf heads on the Heavy Bolters. Pelts nailed to the sides. A few trophies along the side will also look good, such as parts of a slain Kraken or other large creature.

Names? How about Mjolnir? (the Hammer of Thor)
