This project was a lot of fun. As I mentioned in my WIP Alfric post, he is comprised of Inquisitor Coteaz, Njal Stormcaller, some Grey Hunter bits, and green stuff. Games Workshop isn't always the best at keeping their minis to their own scale, so even though Coteaz is a wimpy human, when standing next to a Space Marine, you actually can't tell the difference.
I especially enjoyed working on his cloak. It took me longer to do than anything else on him. I'm still rubbish at painting brown fur, though. I really don't know what it is about brown fur, my grey fur turns out fine. I have a good technique down for the wolf tail talismans, but somehow it doesn't translate over to pelts very well. Someday I'll figure it out.
He has his cool cyber raven, but sadly, when the new Space Wolf codex came out, it dashed all my Chooser of the Slain ideas (as that is no more) so I didn't bother with finishing his Chooser marker. So now he has a raven friend just for fun.
Here he is before:
He'll see his first real action this coming weekend at a local tournament. Then it's basically time for the NOVA Open. I'm really glad I can test out my new 7th edition list in a tournament setting before the big event. I won't be able to get too many games in with it, but a few is better than none. Hopefully the first list I made works out, because I really only have time to test one sufficiently.
My last, but very much not least, project remaining for NOVA is my Imperial Knight. I just have to finish one arm and he's all set. I even started getting his fancy base together over the weekend. I have this week off from school (yay, summer vacation) so if all goes well he'll be fully finished in time for Sunday's event.
