Another 5am has come and gone and I'm still awake. Tonight, I finished up the putty work on my "Njal" (or at least the work I'll be doing right now). I'm not sure I really like the finished result as I think it'd tie into the theme a bit better if I had him wolfing out a little, but the original GW 13th Company release had the Rune Priests as the ones who find their resistance to Chaos not in the curse, but in their intense psychic training. Plus, I don't have time to be futsing about with all this noise.
Speaking of futsing about, I have done a bit of it. While trying out different ideas for a Njal model, I went ahead and made another wolfen model out of some Confrontation models a buddy of mine donated to me. I spiced it up with a few parts from old and worn Warmachine models, but it's mostly what it started as: a beautiful werewolf sculpt. Now, this didn't work for Njal (ended up too big plus I already had the Iron Priest pretty much the same way), but it did help me start a new unit for the ol' SWs: Thunderwolf Calvary. I've already started work on a second (they're pretty easy given the little work I'm doing on them) and have enough parts for five total with maybe a character if I can scrounge up the parts from friends. This isn't to say that I'm big into TWC, but it does give me the option.
With this new early morning madness complete, I took stock of what I have in terms of useable models. Besides what I have in the list seen in my previous post (minus one pred), I have access to: 5 TWC (soon), one Lone Wolf w/ cubs, LRC, 10 more marines (two with flamers), one more biker, and a bevvy of Fenrisian Wolves. Not bad for an army that has run me $35 or so in investment so far. Now, if only any of it was painted....
