Pack Of THe Bloodied Hand (Wolfen)

[greenstuff_gav]

Yup.. so I've always loved the Wolfen from Rackham's main game Confrontation.
The world needs more honking great big wolf men

Anywho... i'm getting a load off've a friend for some minis & thought I'd whack together an army

So anyway... pulling one of the basic warriors out of my box, I slapped some ink on him to practise "autoShading" techniques

a black spray was followed by a White spray but only from above & higher angles (no laying him down or complete covering) & he came out rather well (excuse the crappy pic.. camera died )



This was followed by Flesh Wash on the skin, Black Ink on te armour & weapons.
Once each had dried a 2nd coat of each was applied then a thinned down Boltgun Metal on the metal bitz (studs, weapons).

Bar some tidying up of edges ( i used a Large brush for the whole figure so far!) wit ha adetail brush, the test figure's done

Nice!

How to their mini's go, price-wise?

[greenstuff_gav]

seeing how i've not paid for any dunno :lol:

Those guys are the basic warriors.. .box of 5 for E40 ... so about £27... just over £5 each?

the cooler Wolfen come in at about £8 each... not bad considering they're about 45mm to the eyes

yay! another 2 painted last night! another warrior like that one & a character pics when i've woken up :lol:

[greenstuff_gav]

so after another evening I've now got 2 Wolfen painted up pretty matching (i love how the loin cloth turned out!)
need to get my basing materials back off've a mate :lol:
(click for larger)


So while waiting I sprayed Onyx The Prowler & decided that as a character he's staying Albino
the white just needs some highlighting on him...

[faramirsmumma]

Although they are un-realistic in terms of weapon size, etc. it does look freaking sweet!

Top job mate ;D

[greenstuff_gav]

I was worried about realism.. then it occured to me.. we're talking about 10ft tall wolfmen :lol:
realism can take a flying wotsit

talking of which.. another Wolfen Warrior is WIP... just basic inks ATM...


a bit of work to the force... Dee reinforced the pack by swapping me some Hasslefree Figures for the Predators Of Blood box
that means the pack is going to be getting half a dozen of the bigguys
so they were quickly sprayed up


As I'm getting 2 of each of these guys I thought in addition to the unique poses i'd try Body Paint to distinguish them... as I'm thinking about the 2 different statlines of Predators (one of which is *nasty* )
I happened to be watching the anime .Hack//Sign and loved the tattoos / bodypaint of Bear (OMG! how long did it take to find a semi decent pic of him?! hes the dude at the bottom right... but in the anime his paint is on the other side...)
*ahem* anywho.. so i stole the idea & tried to paint the Predator as a homage... if only they werent so detailed

Still very WIP

And as a finale, heres a bad pic of the WIP force so far

[Dead Orc]

Well thats a very nice horde your building yourself there! My mates just starting a wolfen horse, myself I can't settle. I like different mini's from all the armies! I'll probably end up with many allies in the force... when I finaly settle, untill then I'll just collect a choice few.

they are looking nice!

heh.. do i need to make any jokes?


unfortunatly the ally ststem is rather specific... certain armies willnae ally up

[Dead Orc]

That wasn't me it was my keyboard...... honest.....

I've checked the allys and such, i'll be using the evil side mostly, and someone who can ally with the devourers.

[greenstuff_gav]

Anywhom... not much has been happening... lack of motivation

so i've started inking another 2 predators :lol:



I treid 2 Ultimate Predators (take 2 predators + 2 Animae & sacrifice them to make Uber Hard Predators ) against the same amount of points in Griffon Templar Blokes ... 1 turn to hammer 3/4 the force so we abandoned that game :lol:
