A Warhammer 40k blog, written by conversion enthusiasts – Krakendoomcool, Pandorasbitzbox, Warbringer, davyArt & Ritual. Featuring The Wolf Lord Project (making all twelve Wolf Lords). Lots of conversions, Space Wolves, Chaos, Salamanders, Tyranids & More!
Finally I've finished all 12 Wolf Lords. Took some doing in the end. Really dragged my heals for the last two. But here they all are in one post. The blog started with this project and it feels pretty good to get it done. The names are linked to the original blog posts. If your…
If wolf lords could be afraid then Erik Morkai is the Wolf Lord they would fear. Erik Morkai is the scary one. Scary Wolf (Erik), baby (Ragnar), ginger (Krom), sporty (Sven) and posh (Egil - have you seen his collection of automobiles?). He favours Wolf Scouts, stealth tactics and viciousness in combat. There is artwork…
Kjarl Grimblood loves fire, his company cover their faces in blood after killing an enemy with flames. He’s rumoured to have ‘the gift’ (psyker), he sees the future in fire. And he has 12 land raider redeemers (in the West Indies). Did I mention he loves fire? For me terminator armour and land raiders go…
Harald was a lot of fun to paint. He’s got a painting guide in ‘companies of fenris’ which was super helpful. I didn’t convert him or paint him differently. He’s a relatively recent (compared to Ragnar!) release. Like Krom the model and artwork are pretty consistent. It’s well established that is what he looks like.…
Gunnar Redmoon was another Wolf Lord with relatively little known about him. He appears at some point in the Space Wolf omnibus but I haven’t read that far! So what I knew was; he’s big, loud and likes the good company of Long fangs (for the krak). So I put him in termie armour to…
Engir Krakendoom is the first Wolf Lord in the project with no model, no artwork, no wargear options. A blank canvas. According to the fluff Engir Krakendoom is a real sea faring space Viking. He likes boarding parties and outriders. The outrider aspect caught my imagination for a while. I was using the death watch white…
Krom Dragongaze is a great model and a key release for the Wolf Lords project. I use his body for two other Wolf Lords (Ragnar and Bran), his head for Engir Krakendoom and his axe for Gunnar Redmoon. I talk about what a good fit he is for a Ragnar conversion in an earlier post. This…
I’ve had the original lead Ragnar for about 25 years. It’s possibly the oldest model still available in the whole of the 40k range. It’s a great model but he has a very static pose due to having to be moulded in lead back in 2nd edition. This is exactly how I remember him when…
Making, creating, converting and painting all twelve Wolf Lords. About a year ago I realised that making all twelve of the Wolf Lords was suddenly a possibility. The Grand Annulus and the names of all 12 Wolf Lords has been around for a long time (4th edition?). Most only had a paragraph of words dedicated…
