More will prob. be up tomorrow, because tonight I'm busy

I haven't even started to think about vehicles yet.
I need at least one more group of grey hunters (or 15 blood claws), along with land speeders before I start thinking about tanks.. but MAYBE I'll squeeze in a land raider Redeemer.. who knows ^^,

I found Inquisitor Lord Coteaz in my bitz box, having only used his thunder hammer for my Ultramarines captain many years ago I realized that i wanted to make him a Wolf Priest (To use in lower point games mostly).

With the giant cybernetic eagle, he would make a great Rune Priest instead of a Wolf Priest and that would save you trying to make a Crozius.

As a native of Sweden, I can vouch, that it is infact, awesome.

Makes winland look like poop.

yeah, but then I'd have to make tiny runes in GS all over him, which i do not want to go through

Yaaaaaaay!

Update:
Just finished my last 2 scouts yesterday.

Here they are:

Alrighty, finished my first model, spent a great deal of time on this model and I'm really pleased with how he came out.

Might add some extensive freehand on the right shoulder pad, but that will come after more practice.






C&C wanted and appreciated

I think from that picture that the model looks great. The army will look amazing if they all turn out like that I'm sure.

Is that drybrushing + Devlan mud wash? Looks good

that's like.... tons of layers of drybrushing, both codex gray and fortress gray, along with a series of washes and glazes.

How did you do the blood? I love how it looks congealed and sticky

Very nice Grey Hunter. It's always nice to log on and see "The Guardians of Asgard" near the top of the page.

I'd like to go ahead and express my jealousy on several points.

-You've met Johan Hegg. Lucky bastard.
-That your girlfriend loves you. Mine just judges me for playing 40k.
-That you have the time and energy to keep this up.

I'm impressed by:
-Your sculpting skills.
-Your good taste. Those Space Wolves are gritty... as they damn well should be!
-Your choice of winter holiday.
-That paint job. The wolf-head on his bolter looks especially nice and the colour scheme is perfect.
-How convincing the blood and gore is on that chainsword.

Cheers guys, always fun to get encouraging C&C on my work.

Kinda helps me push myself

I could toss up a guide on the blood as well as the bolter and chainsaw wolf heads with my next marine, I'll be doing him prob. around the upcoming weekend since I have tons of school and work stuff this week.

Love GS work!

Rock on!
Waaaagggghhhhh!

Fantastic GS Work - let's see a load of 'em painted, because that one model is just amazing.

Can't wait to see the character models painted

I succumbed... I bought GW's hand flamer spray thiny today when I was buying my 9 year old brother his christmas present (not going to wreck havoc for my parents whom will have a living hell trying to get "Midvintersblotet" out of his head if I introduce him to pagan history/etc. now ), which is a Black Templars Codex.

So now I'll be able to paint these in bulk, they will still get the same amount of time, but I won't have to spend so much time mixing the colors correctly over and over again.

By this weekend I should have another one finished.

I've been gone for 2 weeks, spent some quality time around different places here in Sweden.
Enjoyed some nice game hunting, and just enjoyed the snowy outdoors in general.

But now I'm back and I've been working some on my 2nd space wolf.
He's far from finished and I'm veeery uncertain on the wolf pelts' colors.
I've also bought myself a Vindicator which will get some heavy work eventually.

Anyway, here's the Grey Hunter, when he's pretty much done I'll do the blood on him and then also toss up the blood tutorial at the same time.

Can't wait for blood tutorial!

For some reason, the Grey Hunters eyes seem to be glowing! If they do on purpose, I love them!

Alrighty, today I was SUPPOSED to study, but well, that went out of the window and in flew a cold harsh breeze.
That's right, I'm pretty much finished with my 2nd wolfy.
I redid all pelts, and finished them off with a nice bright contrasting red (this model will be the centerpiece in his pack). I then finished off the skulls mounted onto the chainsword and the bolter, and when I was in the 7th layer I discovered that the tan i was working with was not Bleached Bone, but Kommando Khaki -Nice surprise! (That's why it looked so darn dark, luckily for me I felt it looked better that way than by using the same bright color I use on the ornate Bolter Wolfhead decorations on other marines)...

I still haven't decided if he will get black or blond hair, his base is already done so all needed is the blood effects on his chainsword (which I'll do after the hair) and then he's done.










I also finished my Wolf Priest (building/sculpting) today since I got the top of the staff I needed in the mail yesterday..

I removed that pesky hourglass and replaced it with more furry godness







Comments and Criticism wanted and appreciated as usual.

Love the fur on your latest wolf, looks really nice against the red cloth. Face makes him look like a real barbarian, little to much for my taste but it goes well with the rest of the model.

And damn it's cold outside -.-

Visigoths in space?
Where do I pay?

I guess I could do some commission work. If you're serious ;P

Hmmm... Black hair doesn't suit... Maybe Grey or Ginger?

Those models look great! You're great at GS too, I can't even fill in a gap and make it look good.

Muller, I must say your SW's are a vast improvement over the source material, which I believe matched your concept until recently...I hadn't actually examined a lot of the new SW stuff and after reading this I finally checked it out and I agree with your full-heartedly; I don't like the direction they've gone at all.

That being said, your SW's are awesome not only for bringing those features back in, but for the great GS work on their hair. I feel like these guys just got done beating Grendel in arm wrestling, and then showed him how to properly raid towns...pure viking goodness!!

I'll be keeping an eye on this stuff, great work!

Your Wolves are truly inspired I agree GW dont know how to do norse at all in their Chaos Mortals range and the Space wolves.

I believe that this is going to be beautiful when finished..

I hope you dont use Psykers in your army.

That is the reason i dont like wolves.

Of course I won't be using psykers!
If I would it'd be someone more built to look like an old village seer or a shaman, with a staff made from dragonbone or something similar.

But no, mostly it'll be wolf priests, wolf lord and canis wolfborn in my army

Sorry for the delay, had some work to do this week along with other things, but now my blood tutorial is up on my blog (see my signature for link) and here's the 2nd Grey hunter, completed:

(Yes, his brother wanted to pose for the photoshoot as well )
