Not bad, good choice to not make him all black, although personally I would have followed the typical chaplain uniform variation as mentioned in the compendium which is black skull helmet, black torso, skull shoulderpads, and typical spacewolf grey arms and legs. Still nice to A. See a spacewolf Chaplain, and B. not see him in all Black

Yeah, this will be a Space Wolf force which will bug Space Wolf afficianados I'm afraid. I'm painting them up as I wish...but then Space Wolves have more freedom that way with Great Companies etc.

I thought the WolfPriests were the SpaceWolf equivalent to a chaplain. IronPriest-> techmarine, RunePriest->Librarian.

yes but before spacewolves became space Vikings they were just another chapter of space marines, and actually had the usual chaplains, medics, techpriests and librarians. and for a very short period there was even an official paintscheme for spacewolf chaplains

Yeah, they're all priests in 2nd edition, but the codex is still in the mail so I just called him a Chaplain.

Reverting back to the pointy eared panzees...another alternate paint scheme for a Phoenix Lord (again he'll probably serve mostly as a simple Dark Reaper exarch).

eBay received as a poorly painted classic paint scheme, the one everyone has seen hundreds of times.

Alternate scheme. Again, amazed at how well this miniature has held up over time.

That new colour scheme works a treat

cheers

Thanks Jim. I basically wanted to completely invert the normal scheme and it seemed to work out well!

Some lovely rescuing of old miniatures in this thread. Beautiful painting all 'round.

Thanks! That's actually been the most fun/rewarding part. Sadly I forget to take pictures of some of my stuff when it shows up from eBay because I'm too anxious to throw it in the stripping solution...

Brilliant!
The new subtle scheme works really well and makes him much more sinister and realistic.

It is scary just how close your new Eldar army reminds me of my old with its components.
I think it is a good thing that I have already put together a small skirmishing force of pirates together already or I may have been tempted to emulate your efforts.

Of coursse, now you have gone and started flashing old skool Space Wolves around, which is another story entirely.....

Elbows · « **Reply #130 on:** August 28, 2016, 10:36:20 PM »

It better remind you of your components...I've painted damn near everything from the codex!

I'm even kinda/sorta considering doing some pirates at the very end.

Finished up a Rune Priest...and I'm not loving it. May end up re-doing him in the future.

EDIT: Touched up the force weapon and added some decals to finish him off:

So many classic great models, brought to life with a great brush job!

I love your collection, elbows!
Bravo!

Elbows · « **Reply #133 on:** September 03, 2016, 04:55:50 PM »

Thanks, Maxx! I'd invite you to a game, but I don't have plans to visit Italy anytime soon!

Reed · « **Reply #134 on:** September 04, 2016, 09:09:32 PM »

Much better with those little touch-ups. Now there's no need to re-do it.
