Both are conversions. The human form is Foundry and the wolf might be either Reaper or Ral Partha, but I´m not sure about the latter. It had been a male wolf before...

I did locate the base figure from Foundry that you used and I have to say that's a top notch piece of converting you did there. You have mad modeling skills indeed.

Excellent report, Michi. Entertaining to read and lots of pretty pictures! (I read these forums for the articles, honest!  ;) )

Looks like we need to see Captain America go up against that Nazi She-Wolf.  Now that would be one Hell of a fight!

I just wanted to buy some paints in my local model shop today, when I stumbled across this:



I demilitarized it and it should not be the above pictured LWS, but something much bigger for amphibious expeditions e.g. to the south pole...




I cut the roof off first to make the interior accessible for gaming. It measures 7x13cm and is 4cm high, what leaves enough space for comfortable gaming with 28mm figures with bases.



Logically I cut the lower hull off as well, to make both amphibious ways of traction possible on the gaming table.

That is really well done!

How did you get such a precise cut for the lower hull?

This particular one is from Shadowforge. You can find them from most manufacturers. Hasslefree do some very nice ones. Many are simply conversions.

The reason why I don't recognise the shadowforge ones is probably cause the paintjobs on their website are so cack!

Lovely job as ever.
