This is my thunderwolf the next step is to attach a plasma pistol and one the grey knights nemisis force weapons to give it a better look.

what do you not like it. its my own space wolves successor chapter. instead of giant wolves they have large demonic looking beasts for mounts

The daemon part? are you amking a chaos force?

no. there called the wolves of morkai. morkai was the giant two headed wolf that leman russ had sent to the guard the gates of hell. my chapters home planet is kinda like a spin off of the salamanders home planet. and they have like giant rhinocerus looking creatures other different stuff.that and the bloodcrusher model is cheaper and cooler looking then the actual thunderwolf model

You need to convert it so it looks less well... chaosy, otherwise all you will hear from your opponents is:

Lose the "rhino' horn and model the tail to look more wolf-like and I think your good to go.

I think the nay-sayers are saying nay because it's too recognizeable as a chaos jugger. CT GAMER makes a good suggestion and that will help immensely. Also, you might consider adding some wolf-ish totems or icons to the large plates at the shoulders / flanks of the beast.

You should really try learning some new painting techniques before slathering black and red on that thing. You need highlights like nobody's business, since flat black just looks unpainted.

Decent idea to use a Juggernaut, but for the same price you can just buy Canis again. If I were to counts-as a World Eaters army as Space Wolves, I'd use Juggernauts for Thunderwolves.

lolwut.

Bloodcrushers are $29.75 USD, Canis is $41.25.

I like the model and agree that it works wonderfully. Looks like a WIP, hopefully you paint it more, attach some chapter symbols, ect.

yes i definetly still have more painting to do. when its completly finished ill post the model again

See the other thing is im not trying to say its a thunderwolf. I'm using the same rules for my space woles successor chapter

Interesting, but I agree it looks a bit heretical. It needs a bit more converting to make it non-chaotic.

what I would do or my suggestion at leastr would be not tonecessarily lose the hoprn just model it differently so it looks more like a rhino horn . maybe even eliminate the tail altogether but i like the idea of rhino riding marines so i think you should keep things like the horn just change it a bit

Add some fur on the tip of the shoulders/other points such as the spine or something. This could be achieved with green stuff, and would make it less deamon like, and more animalistic, which is a step in the right direction in my opinion.

Mm...I've got some pics lying around of an Adeptus Sororitas riding a Juggernaut that was part of a GD diorama....hmm...where is it?

If you trimmed all the Chaos markings off, I don't see a problem.

Fluff talks of Iron Priests making Iron Thunder Wolves.

Looks good.
