Ragnar Blackmane

After going through the many Gun and GW figure cases for my Sons of Ultramar Chapter's 1st Company, I ran across my converted Ragnar Blackmane model.  Like many 40k enthusiasts, I was not a fan of the older Special Character model with its static and boring pose.  Plus, I'm a fan of plastic models in which you can convert and make into your own unique figure.  With that said, here is my own version of Ragnar Blackmane.

This model incorporates several design elements that are copied from the original model.  However, the model is incomplete and will require some additional work.  For starters, the sword has to be replaced and I think I'm going to rebase the model at the least.  Other than that, I'm pretty satisfied with the way it turned out.  The picture really does not do it justice.

Sadly, as much as I might like the model, I doubt I'll ever use it in a practical game.  In fact, that is the case for most of the Space Wolves Special Characters.   In my opinion, they are all over priced for their abilities and stat lines when compared to other Special Characters.
