Space Vikings

Without giving much though into the theme for my Space Wolves army, I set out to put together some models. I read a nice post from Space-Wolves-Grey on how to convert fantasy Chaos Warriors into Space Wolves, and found that the look would highlight my HQ/independent character models. The look sets in really well with the idea of Space Vikings (which is not really all that different from regular Space Wolves), and this has compelled me to buy random Chaos bits from eBay to accentuate my regular models. I think it's coming out quite nicely.

(Roose the Black Wolf and Buliwyf)

(Erik the Red and Halga the Bear)

Unfortunately, I have now learned this are not the best builds for Wolf Lords, and while they would do nicely as Rune Priests, I will probably add a few more caped vikings with power fists to the unit and make them Wolf Guard, which can then split up to lead a squad of Grey Hunters each. They look like they would enjoy some front line action in any case...
