ApolloSZ Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Hail brothers. I am currently working on my Mark of the Wulfen model, for a mini diorama/competition. Hes pretty much done, and I have to paint the vile eldar scum next weekend (dont worry, the vile xenos is ... 'mounted'... on his lightning claws - I will post pics someday.) and was wondering... Im trying to paint the facial markings/tattoos and google is woefully useless in finding images of Woad that can be used for ideas. So I ask you my fellow wolves, have you painted tattoos on your MotW and what do they look like? Images are handy. Detailed ones are fine, Im buying new brushes next weekend so shall be able to paint nice tidy fine lines.

muzzyman1981 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Well I don't know about the rest of the Wolves here but I would say simple designs (spirals and "lightning bolts" and whatnot). Cheeks, forhead, across under the eyes, etc for placement. That's my idea though...

Grey Mage Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Spirals of dark blue on the cheeks that meet on the forehead was how I always saw it, and tried to paint it aswell.

Growler67 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 I did a Google image search for "Celtos Barbarian Miniatures" and came up with a couple for inspiration. http://www.coolminiornot.com/store/shopima...s/normal/mm1014 http://www.artemisblacks.com/masquerade/im...k%20Stiller.jpg Might also want to do an image search for "confrontation wolfen". Some of them have pict-ish tatoos and face/body paint too.

Wolf89 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 braveheart anybody? That's exactly how I painted mine. He's got red covering one half of the face, and blue on the other... finish with a little swirly of black here and there, and presto.

WolfLordLars Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 If you want historical, lots of swirls and 'celtic' designs (thats where they came from, IIRC).
