In the tradition of the Games Day Mega Displays of yesteryear, the Design Studio decided that they wanted to bring something 'really cool' along to the UK Games Day this year. Determined to awe the masses with an innovative display, scenery gurus and model makers supreme Dave Andrews and Mark Jones rose to the fore, captaining an vision of Space Wolf madness that would stun and delight all who beheld it.
Over the following pages you'll see plenty of photographs focussing on just some of the highlights of this innovative and elaborate display, as well as work in progress shots and even some tips on how to copy some of the conversions for yourself.
The stained glass windows, by Studio illustrator Neil Hodgson feature illuminations of famous Space Wolves heroes.
Chapter Serfs and Servitors work tirelessly to rearm and refuel the Thunderhawk Gunship and return it into the fray.
Ever keen to reuse and recycle, Dave Andrews pressed his massive planetary defence laser into service once more - this time standing watch over Magnir's Crag.
Matt Holland also converted Svorin Jergensen, a celebrated knife fighter shown here tearing open the throat of a Hormagaunt.
The spire was built as a separate piece, using parts from all manner of kits, including Imperial Bastions, The Shrine of the Aquila, Fortress of Redemption and more besides.
With the scenery (mostly) built and (some) of the models painted, Dave and Mark put everything in place to get the feel of how it will all look.
