Ill have to look into it, we are all pretty busy with the Space Wolf range at the moment, we plan on having bits ready for the codex release.

any IW stuff in the works?

@skrulnik- There are chalice shoulder pads already

Hmmm... Speaking of blood angel successor chapters, perhaps if you made a sawblade on a shoulderpad... If people wanted to paint a blood drop, or transfer a blood drop on it... It could also be used for mechanicus style forces.

Good idea on the cog/sawblade!

Thx. I am working on a slow computer that can only handle one browser window at a time.
I couldn't look at there site while I was posting.

I just saw this topic, and I have to say... FINALLY. I have been working on collecting\modeling my Griffons for awhile now.

Any projected date on production\molding? And are their any plans for Rhino and LR hatch doors (or flat icons that could be glued to said door lol)?

We are sculpting the pads now, Id say eta 2 months till sales. I am sure a flat icon or rather a decorated door kit will be available 3-4 months after those.

Thanks!
Nick

I'm really looking forward to your Wolf style add-ons.

As I'm sure that when their Codex hits, I'll be fielding a Space Wolf army or a 'counts as' one, due to the flexibility it will allow vs. the Codex Astartes version...

Hey you should have told me that you posted a topic on these...since I commissioned them...lol
I really would prefer not to have a shield in the background.
I would have no problem with the wings having more detail sculpted on.

Awesome...I need to read the old Codex now. I had plans to put a SM torso hanging off the side of my Landraider and that gives me more ideas.

Great custom job on that chapter! Who are the IC's holding the HB and chainsword?

Thanks!!!!

The IC are:
Priest either for my Inquisitor or IG.
Hvy Bolter guy is from Necromunda not sure what I am going to do with him.

Still working on this design, we were trying to do it in 3d but the printing didnt work like we wanted it to, so now it will be by hand and perhaps more detailed

Ah ha! I thought that was a 'Munda model. Awesome, I've got a squad of ratskins that have been collecting dust for the past 5 years.

More detail is good 8)

Take a look! 8)

Im waiting for those griffon pads....need about 150 of them, and hoping there will be Termie pads and Icons too

They are finally done and shipping tomorrow, to the first couple of customers who pre-ordered the Howling Griffin pads.

They look like there but in pewter:


If you interested send me an email to nick@chapterhousestudios.com. I have not posted them on the site yet, I am waiting for the painted pads from our studio painter.

Nick

damn it... i promised my self i wouldn't start another marine army and you're not helping!!!

Well, the terminator pads and rhino and vehicle icons are a few months from happening, so maybe that will stop you

Months? Darn those wolves!

Chapterhouse wrote:Well, the terminator pads and rhino and vehicle icons are a few months from happening, so maybe that will stop you

it might although i plan to take my time with any possible marines i do next. they were my first army (like 80% of players) and my current crappiest paintjob since i can't bear to strip them out of nostalgia. i've been thinking about converting the new SW minis into a lion/griffon based chapter (instead of wolves) and your line would be perfect once it's complete.

You know how Im always asking for more chalice stuff eh? Well this isnt helping either as I know Im going to be buying a bunch to put on the bases of my Soul Drinkers... Why must you make me poor :(

Love the work though, keep it up!

Aren't they the loser marine chapter that got wiped out by Chaos?

We´ll I have practically speaking finished the chalice rhino kit and drop pod armour right now

As for griffons, I´m trying out different concepts for rhinos.

Ok so I went back just now and looked for the story in the old Chaos Codex... they were never wiped out however the story in the book tied into the Soul Drinkers book...

In the old chaos book, it was the 5000th aniversery of the Howling Griffons founding. As they were heading to their homeworld, Lord Periclitor of the Night Lords attacked their ship and killed Howling Griffon Chapter Master Furioso who was then tied to the front of Periclitor's thunderhawk and it becomes an oath of the howling griffons to seek out and destroy Periclitor (they are obsessed with fulfilling oaths, to an EXTREME extent).

In the Soul Drinkers book, heres whats learned. Periclitor later becomes a full daemon prince, and the Chief Librarian of the Howling Griffons, Marceano, fulfills the oath when killing Periclitor.

SPOILER


The chapter was not wiped out by the souldrinkers either. Marceano later seeks to fulfill another oath in "Protecting Vanqualis, and Destroying the Black Chalice" Whom they think is the soul drinkers. They send 3 companies of Howling Griffons to Vanqualis to wipe out the soul drinkers whom are in the middle of a chapter war, while the non chaos but still renegade Soul Drinkers are stuck on Vanqualis who then makes a comprimise with the revolting soul drinkers, leading to their escape off vanqualis.

The Howling Griffons then attack the Soul Drinkers Space Hulk, "Brokenback" and during the battle, Marceano is killed, it is learned that the Soul Drinkers are not the black chalice, and vanqualis is still in need of protection from the massive ork invasion, causing the Howling Griffons to retreat to save vanqualis due to an oath, how ever, the Griffons said they would still come after the Soul Drinkers because they were renegade and they could not be left alone...

So considering the Howling Griffons didnt send their entire force to Vanqualis and they werent completely wiped out as far as the book says, they are alive and about... Just thought Id share the scoop!

I hate ti be TFG, but in your website, under Space Marine Infantry bits, you've got Dark Watch and Death Angels, when it should be Death Watch and Dark Angels!

Anyway, really nice stuff, and may your business continue to flourish!

So, what will the other 999 Marines do, if one manages to kill the Deamon?

Those are quite impressive.

Thanks much

'Bout time-Getting tired of constantly having to print off BOLS' transfers for my Griffons.
