I have more or less figured out what i want to do with my Wolves, but I realize up front how much time and energy the project will take. I'm going to do them with a pre-heresy theme by and large, but I've decided I really want to play up the "dark ages" vibe and make them look as medieval / heathen as possible. They come from a shamanic culture and have a religion and mythology that is wholly unlike the rest of the imperium, and I want to play that to the hilt. I've kind of also always imagined them to be ramshackle / hand crafted as possible, imbuing their armor with personalization and customizations.

I've already decided I'm going to be picking up some Chaos Warriors and Marauders for their bits and creating some Fenris Pattern Power Armorâ„¢ but I'm also going to be grabbing some forgeworld pre-heresy kit (for some reason, I feel like MKIII,IV, and V would look great on space wolves), and maybe box or two of Catachans (mostly to steal their arms). I may buy some CSM bits as well if I find any parts I want.

What I need to find though is steady sources of more accessory bits. I'm wanting to play up the norse aspect as much or more than the "space marine" part of their heritage. I'm looking for places where I can buy lots of 28mm scale axes and norse-style swords, round shields (square and diamond shaped shields don't have the same feel) and the like. I'd also love to find some way to do bone necklaces and feathers without having to sculpt it all from scratch in green stuff.

I've seen people talk about "norsca" or norse army lists in Warhammer Fantasy, any idea where they get their stuff?
