I've been wanting to start a new army for a while and with the release of the FW Mark armours and a desire to start a themed SW army, I decided to go with Engir Krakendoom's Great Company in Mark VI armour. I've always liked the look of the RT Era Marine armies and wanted to emulate that with a more up to date look. I also plan to expand into Egil Iron Wolf's Great Company and form a joint force of the two Wolf Lords.

Until I can convert an appropriate model for Krakendoom himself, I thought I'd convert a Wolf Lord to stand in.



He's not Mk VI, but since he's only temporary, I'm not too worried. He is currently missing an axe in his left hand. I wanted a more static pose to off-set the action poses of the rest of the Wolves.

I also wanted to have the Wolf Guard stand out a bit more so I'm using the 3rd Edition Mk VI torsos from the SW Accessory Sprue.



I figure they'll be in Mk 6.5 so they can look a bit more unique between them, instead of them all wearing the exact same armour.

The only models that won't be in the Mk VI armour will be the Wolf Scouts. I wanted the plastic kit Scouts to look more like they belong in a SW army so I added bitz from the Space Wolf Pack box to make them fit in better.




I need to convert the rest of the Wolf Guard and the Meltagun Wolf Scout and will post them when they are complete.

I've ordered 30 of the FW Mk VI marines along with some other stuff to convert into Grey Hunters and Long Fangs:



There's also a Razorback, Mk5 and Mk3 Marines for my standard Marine army as well as some Flesh Tearers Brass Etch for Twalks.

Hopefully I'll have an update soon.

I also did a size comparison for anyone interested:



I should have more progress done over the next day or so and hopefully have the two Grey Hunters squads done for the weekend.

I might also fill in the runes on the axe. The axe is from the Beastmen Gor box.

Since I'm not using him in the army, I didn't feel he needed to be 100% done.

I got the top hatches for the rhinos done today. I printed the Engir Krakendoom's Great Company Decals from Bolter and Chainsword onto some thin plasticard and cut it out with a hobby knife. It's not perfect, but I think it'll do nicely. It's probably hard to see, but I did cut where the hatches separate so the icon isn't sealing the doors shut.

From earlier... I asked the same question

@Glimpse The Void: It is indeed go big or go home for Space Wolves.

I managed to get the body of the first Grey Hunter finished. Much more pleased with the armour after adding the Space Wolves Grey highlight to it.





Hope to have the model fully done over the weekend.

I decided early on that the Wulfen models will be the only ones in the squads with bare heads:



I also got these in the mail today:



Which means I can finally do this:





Hope to have more progress this coming week, but I work 7 days straight so maybe not so much.

Also added some brass etch to one of the tanks. I am awaiting more to add to the other two that don't have the top hatch symbol.



Finally, some WIP Grey Hunters.



Should have these guys done in a few days.

@Lennysmash: The head will be changed to one off the new SW sprue.

@Thanatos73: But the Wulfen are in all SW armies. Bran Redmaw's Great Company is especially known for them and there's rumours he's got it too.

@dantay_xv: The metal combi-melta is from the Iron Warriors Warsmith. The bases are from microart studios.
