Title: Werewolves
Post by: Bullshott on February 03, 2014, 11:00:51 PM: Please excuse double-posting this picture from a thread of mine on the VSF board. These figures are part of a company I'm putting together for IHMN. All are from the Westwind Vampire Wars range. My question for users of this board is can any of you recommend a werewolf figure that has a similar style of sculpting and size-wise fits in between the pack werewolves and the great werewolf in my group (needed for an obvious 'second in command').

If you do a search in the Reaper website they have several of a similar design which are all compatible with Westwind.

the Westwind is nearly the size of a man so for a second in command, it 'll be need something between the big one and the human size....

see that one form Westwind :

the bottom one is greater than a man

Here's a comparison to one of the West Wind Werewolves. WW in the center and Gamezone on the right.

This is my painted version, standing next to a horrorclix figure -

Cheers

The werwolves are based on 30mm bases, the Otherworld wolves are based on 40mm bases.

Post by: JollyBob on March 21, 2014, 09:44:29 PM: One of my favourites is the Heresy werewolf:

http://heresyminiatures.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_11_36&products_id=26

A bit cartoony maybe, but here's my take on him:

(http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb155/GrunterPulpit/WereWolf.jpg~original) (http://s205.photobucket.com/user/GrunterPulpit/media/WereWolf.jpg.html)

Or I'd second the Reaper Bones one, having done two so far myself...

He's a bit more static and perhaps doesn't fit as well as the other suggestions. Lovely model tho :D

Post by: EndTransmission on April 04, 2014, 10:54:30 AM: Slightly surprised I've not seen them used yet, but I love the Forgeworld Skin Wolves (http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer/Warhammer_Monsters/SKIN-WOLVES.html). Not the cheapest... but really nice models!

Post by: abdul666lw on April 04, 2014, 05:29:35 PM: For some reason the WW one illustrated above (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=63060.msg767655#msg767655) reminds me of Pickman's model ghoul (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickman%27s_Model). In the same vein Crocodile Games' ghouls (https://www.crocodilegames.com/store/itemList.cfm?catID=14&tag=null&sort=prodID&rowStart=153) could make 'alternate' werewolves.
