BradNardone Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 I had a ton of fun at my first OFCC and it now has me inspired to make my new space wolves army themed. I'm trying to come up with some good ideas on how I could customize the army. The only thing I have so far is undead with lots of frost weapons inspired by the white walkers from game of thrones. If you have any ideas please let me know :) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalripphook Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Definitely you should get Chain loincloths and Chainmail bits to make them look more vikiing and medieval. Or you could get storm cast models and mod them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMGraham Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 I love it! Hobby inspiration is what the OFCC is all about! The white-walker idea sounds really cool! Some different ideas: 1) The techno-barbarian thing Eli mentioned could be cool. Lots of fur cloaks and Chaos Warrior bits mixed in to make them more savage and medieval and less "Space Marine". Maybe use Chaor Warrior cloaks instead of backpacks. 2) Do a Pre-Heresy Legion army. The Betrayal at Calth boxed set makes it really easy to get some 30k models. You can pick a war or event of the Great Crusades or the Heresy and model it after that. The scourging of Prospero might be cool - lots of trampled Thousand Sons underfoot. 3) All werewolves, all the time. Go heavy with the mutations. Take Wulfen, Thunderwolves, and have a variety of models converted to be in mid-transformation. Give even the standard troopers wolf mutations. Model it as a company that has been ravaged more heavily by the curse than others and blur the line between loyalists and chaos. Whatever ideas you;re considering, it's often a good idea to do a test model or two as a "proof of concept". Try a couple, see what works and see what you enjoy doing before commiting to an entire army. Also, I'm really glad you could come! Now make it out to DTG more often! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalripphook Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 Bear in mind 30K wolves are less Vikingish and are more into the runes and knotwork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradNardone Posted August 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 I like the pre heresy idea with just over the top, huge wolf pelts on everything with snow and ice overly covering everyone. And with all of their weapons being made of ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munkie Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 OFCC is great for inspiring plans for next year. I'm already ruminating on ideas for adding in some Haemonculus Coven formations, dropping enemy Ld by ridiculous amounts, and scaring them literally to death. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
