Inspiered by a thread I read a couple of months ago I finally decided to do my own thunderwolf conversions...
There are plenty of wolf model to start from but in the end I opted for the: High Elves Lion present in the [URL="http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/article.jsp?categoryId=cat1300297&aId=1000013"]High Elves Chariot[/URL].
Let's start the description of the involved steps:
1) The two lions are quite small compared to how the thunderwolves should be, so the first step will be to stretch the model a bit.
I have cut all legs from the body. Then drilled each leg in order to prepare the support for the iron thread that will support the model. The body has been drilled as well
2) Short iron threads are glued in the prepared holes and all the parts are then mounted back together. Notice that for the head I have used a small plastic element coming from the supporting blister
The other end of the threads is glued to small plastic bits. This allowed me to move each part independently and choose the best pose for the model.
