Lightning From the Sky  

Posted by Hal'jin in , , ,

And here... we... go..! Starting off a new hundred of posts with another Rune Priest. This one is a fully custom conversion, made from spare Wolf Pack parts and some green stuff to boot.

His name is Radulf Wisewolf and he usually runs around with Living Lightning and Jaws of the World Wolf. He also lost an eye. Somewhere.


That's not all, obviously!


As you can see his second shoulder pad clearly bears the mark of the Great Wolf's company, to which all the Priesthood belongs and is only assigned to companies as needed.


The weapon he carries is the original metal Rune Priest weapon. Since the previous one got a little weapon swap, I thought it'd be nice to actually use this one anyway. It also helps him stand out a little.


The other thing, to make him stand out in the squads was to use nmm all over, as with all the other HQ/Elites. Since the model is made out of regular Wolf Pack bits it had to have something!

Here you have a closeup on the face, and the sculpted runic shoulder pad! You might also notice.. I have no idea what exactly it is, other than it is a part of the Psychic Hood, the metal Rune Priest has.


And the weapon, with the "glow" effect. It isn't as good as some out there, but I think it looks quite okay, since I did want a very faint effect.


And lastly, his Chooser of the Slain, which I would show more of except that... I only got him recently. Yep, a cheap idea, I will use one of the DE Razorwings. I cut off some of those shard claw parts and will paint him as a raven.



And that's it for today, thanks for reading!

Commanding the Power of the Elements

A little break from monotonous Power Armor - special Power Armor! The first painted HQ of Sven Bloodhowl's Great Company - Rune Priest Anliefr Runespeaker.


As you can see Anleifr uses the "real" Rune Priest metal model - the only metal mini in the entire army. What has this world come to? However it is converted slightly - to offset missing pieces (I bought him used) and to make his Runic Weapon more runic, at least in my opinion.



Of course, more angles if you click below!





As the fluff says - all the priests are in fact members of the Great Wolves Company and are only assigned to others as needed. Thus Anleifr is sporting an entirely different company symbol.


And did not take the habit of tattooing his face. I decided to leave his eyes like that. Makes him look as though he is casting a power!


Here is his Runic Sword. I experminted a bit again and refined a technique to be used on power weapons (Which terminators hold aplenty)


And his lower half, including the base.


And that's it. More, that's it for Wolves at all for a few posts! The guns of the 42nd thunder once more as I feel a wave of inspiration. For the first time, I am going to try blogger's post scheduling and have already prepared a couple of IG posts to come up, stay tuned!

Also, for the great mystery I posted? All the answers were wrong. Whatever it is, it's part of the 42nd. More hints will come soonish...
