Master Crafted Space Wolf upgrade
PLEASE NOTE - this is a remix of OddWorks' original design (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4975871) and you'll need to download their design for the majority of the pieces. This download includes the Space Wolf specific upgrade parts only.
In celebration of my younger brother's 40th year in defence of noble Terra and greater Segmentum Solar, he was awarded the boltgun "Fenris Tooth", also in recognition of his courageous and meritorious deeds in the service of mankind, and the Emperor.
We shall sing your song forever.
Although the original is held among the most honored places in Fenris, chapter-smiths have been granted permission to create their own copies to share in the celebration. You may find the sacred stl files in this linked repository. We are eternally grateful to OddWorks for making his master pattern available to use.
May you look upon these works with favour.
As is also tradition, you are encouraged to make your own amendments and adjustments to better suit the needs of you or your chapter-brother whom you are crafting your variation for.
The assembly for the main part simply replaces the existing parts of the same names, however the rail is modified. Please pay attention to the assembly instructions rail01 to rail05. It is imperative that the rail sits flat on top of the chassis or the frames will not align. You can adjust the tension by tightening the two screws on either ends of the rail. Don't glue the middle section. Use the same cube as found in the front grip sections to secure the front and back of the rail.
The Space Wolf chapter icon can be printed stand alone, or as part of frame1 and affixed afterwards depending on your printer needs. My resin printer was not good enough to pick out the runes on the Space Wolf icon. Yours might do better!
The Wolfguard and Terminator Honours can't be added afterwards, but I've added them as stand alone pieces that you can print off and put on your car/tank/family members at your leisure.
Choose from two different mag bases and a variety of frame1 and frame2 sections. The ones in the completed images are:
SW_Mag_Base2
SW_Plate1_Full
SW_Plate2_Sif_And_Honours
Please note: The demonstrated make is printed on a Prusa Mini with a .02mm nozzle. The artwork, in particular the depiction of the Greater Dreadwolf Sif that I have shamelessly traced from this magnificent piece (https://www.deviantart.com/dsp-l/art/Sif-Dark-Souls-and-Artorias-greatsword-617286836), may not come out as well on a .04mm nozzle. I have included blank variations so you can print these pieces in resin. In particular, the Space Wolf chapter icon has been printed in resin and affixed later.
The runes on the outer side of the gun read "BY FANG AND CLAW HIS WILL BE DONE" and "FENRIS TOOTH". I have included a blank variation so that you can write your own if you wish.
Lastly, you may notice the rail in the photos is assembled from several smaller pieces instead two big pieces. That's because after assembling it, I discovered by printing in several smaller pieces, I had introduced tiny gaps that pushed the artwork out. I did not print the new rail yet because I already gave the finished product away, and I didn't feel like printing a new one...if it doesn't fit, yell at me here and I'll adjust :)
This is my first ever publicly made print. If you encounter issues with the files please let me know so I can correct them here.
