Tutorial

Step 1

For the conversion I used Primaris Intercessor and bits from old Space Wolf kit.

Step 2

I also used 3D printed bits from Grey Studio that I got from there store. Amazing quality. You can also see here that I removed all the eagle symbols on the chest and the gun.

Step 3

To make the 3D print shoulder pad fit more in the model I used greenstuff to overlap the shoulder and the back of the marine. Here you also see the bits form the old Space Wolf kit.

Step 4

After we convert our unique model it's time to prime it with Grey Seer.

Step 5

After the primer I paint all the armor with Celestra Grey. Paint the backpack the gun, knife and the inner parts of the shoulder pads with Abaddon Black. Please don't skip the Celestra step it's really important for our technical paint to stick. The primer is to smooth.

Step 6

We base coat all the detail. For leather parts I used Rhinox Hide, for the fur I used Mournfang Brown and for the boney parts I used Zandri Dust.

Step 7

Paint the metal part with Leadbelcher and the facemask with Corax White.

Step 8

Shade the armor with Soulblight Grey. Shade the Nails and the fur with Seraphim Sepia.

Step 10

After a couple of hour dry time start removing the Streaking Grime with White Spirit and a cotton swab.
