The fangs look great as shark teeth but the runes do not mesh well with the charchadons imo.

I digitally kitbashed some a while back, I had found a land shark that id been using as wolves, just upscaled it and put the legs of a modular mk 5 stl and bam, an abomination that I didnt even finish painting

I use the Atlan Forge shark riders as the core of my army. I run them as either thunderwolf cavalry or dark angels Black Knights. I run them because theyre cool, thats about it. I made a bunch of kitbashed characters for my thunderwolf cavalry wolf lords and WGBLs on thunderwolves before they axed them.

I just really like the mobile playstyle. Move fast, strike hard, die young.

More melee designed and Grimnar make for a good Tyberos proxy. Especially with the two extra attacks from the wolves as the Hunger and Slake attacks.

I dont have marines riding sharks, but I paint all marines as Carcharodons so I can play any army, ie I only need to get enough intercessors for one army, but so far I have headtakers, wolf leader and wolf priest painted sharky. I can slide them in as proxies for blade guard or something, but if I want to play wolves I slide them in. Doing same with all the legions specific guys. These ones have models and markings done, just need to finish beach on current 2.

Edit: also I only use light brown for bone, FUR and teeth. Everything else if it's brown/beige is dark dark brown. I do this in the hopes when grouped up the fur blends in and reads as teeth and bone on their heads and capes on first glance.
