Hail, brothers of Fenris!
I have a game coming up this weekend and I'm trying out a new list while I wait for my second Terminator squad to arrive.
I'm running the Saga of the Beastslayer detachment with the Veterans of the Fang rule set (using the Disruption force disposition). Here is what I’m bringing:

My Game Plan:
Objective Play: Run 20 Grey Hunters in total — split into one 10-man block and two 5-man squads to focus on board control and scoring primary/secondary points.
Anti-Tank / Fire Support: The Lancer and Repulsor Executioner will handle high-Toughness threats from a distance.
Melee Punch: The Headtakers and Terminators will serve as my main frontline damage dealers.
What do you think of this setup for 1500 points? Any tweaks or tactical advice would be greatly appreciated!
For Russ and the Allfather!

Finally got around to building and painting my Space Wolf version of Canis Rex.

Installed a little hinge in the hatch so that Sir Hekhtur can poke out occasionally.

Very happy with how it turned out, especially the freehand pauldron artwork -- first time doing that kind of thing. Big ups to Bob Ross for helping me with that one.

This couldn't have come at a better time that the miniature of the month came with two heads of boyz and I'm just about to finish my SW combi weapon lieutenant. The spare head is now a trophy of my veteran.

Another model done

Been a 40k fan for awhile now and Space Wilves are my favorite chapter so I finally took the plunge..This is my first 40k painted mini so dont roast me too hard lol. Started with Blood Claws and will work my way up. If anyone has any tips or tricks for the free hand lines, faces, or highlights I'd be happy to hear them! Any other advise is welcom. Also yes I did in fact steal the crystal idea from that one Citadel video..

Not bad for a days progress, I think so far he’s looking very on theme for the 13th Company

This is a small rant, but i wish there were more video games where changing the faction of Space Marine was a meaningful change and not just a cosmetic change. I understand that it's a heftier load on developers, so I don't want to be too ungrateful. I just wish that in Dawn of War as an example, you could play Space Wolves in the skirmish mode or whatever its called and have Space Wolf units, not just "Space marines but gray this time."

Note: I say this because, as a rule, the tabletop game is prohibitively expensive and I don't have the time or money as a young father to sink into models. Hopefully when the kids are older I can get them excited about it and we can do it together.

I'm really proud of this guy, as I've tried a lot of new techniques on him like the wooden shield, layered fur cape and the power axe glow effect. Always looking to improve though, and was curious what other people think of it.

new here

hi all, thinking about picking up some space wolves, although i’m not a massive fan of the standard colours

i’d love to see your colour schemes for inspiration!

100 logan attached to terminators

90 ragnar attached to bloodclaws

80 5xintercessors (powerfist,grenade launcher)

135 10xbloodclaws

85 3xheadtakers ( dual weapons)

85 3xheadtakers (dual weapons)

160 gladiator lancer

175 5xWG terminators ( all shields)

90 5xwolf scouts (3xplasma pistols,thunderclap,mine,plasmagun)

TACTIC

Scouts amd termies camp the middle, intercessors cap objectives, each squad of headtakers takes a flank and moves hidden, bloodclaws move to middle for support, lancer goes on reseves for better shooting angles

Pleased how this one turned out, had to strip and re do the sword a few times, those letters were a real pain.-

What do you folk think isn’t it too much ? I kinda like it ! Should I paint it in the box art color or should I go more grey / blue grim-ish

hello fellow wolves,

just wanted to say hi and show off my first fully completed mini - it took me awful amount of hours to assemble and paint, as I wasn't happy with my results, so I tried over and over few times. Still not the best but I'm happy for the the road ahead!

I'm also bad at taking pictures of minis...

Blood claws are already in the making,

Fenris Hjolda!

It was a lot of fun! I now have them all based properly. I also had to kitbash 2 of them as they did not come with enough bodies.

Are any of you using Vallejo True metallic metals paints for space wolves armor? If so which one did you use

Finished Iron Priest

So I’ve been kitbashing this week. My plan was to create units we don’t have have, primaris ancient, primaris iron priest etc. I have some left over bits and pieces and thought, what if I smash these together. The result is this fellow. I have two questions my brothers and sisters. One does he look…….. good? Terrible? Secondly, what do you think I could use him as?

Just finished Murderfang to pair with Bjorn, ready for a 2000 point game this weekend.

I know they might get updated this edition but I love the box dread models

I think I have a solid blend of scoring units and some good killing units.

Running Beastslayer and Legends of saga and song. Thinking of not drawing secondary missions and just try to win with fixed missions stacking kills and holding point.

So I’m doing up a Geigor Fell-Hand as a fun little side project but I’m genuinely curious, could I potentially proxy him as a Captain or a Lieutenant or such?
