Chaplain Desmodus Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Amazing! I'm really impressed with your production rate and how good these models look. :P Is airbrushing really that quick or do you work around the clock? Love the greys and the contrast given by the warm yellows. Fantastic. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/190583-space-wolves-commission/page/2/#findComment-2291815 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GumbaFish Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Great stuff as always, as others have mentioned you've chosen a great color for the wolves. It does a nice job of referencing the old scheme while updating it to a more realistic look that is in line with common trends in mini painting. Also I am pretty sure you are going to manage to paint 3 larger, better looking armies before I can complete one small 750pt force!

BulldogUK Posted March 8, 2010 Author Share Posted March 8, 2010 Haven't had much time lately coupled with the light being terrible but managed to knock off some scouts for the commission http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/SpacewolfScoutSquad2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/SpacewolfScoutSquad4.jpg Why no Eyebrows I hear you say? Well, that's all down to the Wolve initiation rights. The drinking game! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/SpacewolfScoutSquad3.jpg The Eyepatch just goes to prove that you CAN reach a point where you are too drunk to shave off your own eyebrows with a 3 foot combat blade ;) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/SpacewolfScoutSquad6.jpg Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse you bump into a Werewolf WEARING power armour DOH! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/SpacewolfScoutSquad.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/190583-space-wolves-commission/page/2/#findComment-2308725 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sisko11 Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Those are some of the best wolves Ive ever seen! You have really struck a nice balance with the grey's particularly, not quite grey not quite steel blue but the best qualities of both. Kudos!

BulldogUK Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 wow the airbrushing My airbrushing skills are pretty basic, I find finishing the miniatures with brush blending generates a little more definition along the edges and brings out the details. It's all down to colour choice really but I seem to have put together a good colour set here and am able to blend this tone of blue particularly well into the airbrushed base coats. The secret? Just a much loved brush, and plenty of spit and practice :) What did you use for Arjac's Anvil bit? I haven't got a clue to be honest, I am just painting 'em! If it's a GW part I would probably look towards the Warhammer fantasy Dwarfs?

BulldogUK Posted March 14, 2010 Author Share Posted March 14, 2010 Just a quickie before I 'retire' for a week or two! Finished the 4 PA troops who made up the complete Squad, took me blinking ages to work out the compsition of the various units as the codex I recieved is in German. THEN I noticed they were all numbered on the bottom DOH!

turelhim vampire Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 GORDON'S ALIVE! Sorry, had to do that. I do agree that those are some seriously nice space wolves - the client is going to be very satisfied, I'd wager.

madcooie Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I have to say that having only just started the hobby, seeing someone paint something as great as this is inspiring me to get my a$$ in gear and do some painting of my own wolves! I'm such a novice though, I doubt i could ever replicate anywhere as good as this! Fantastic work Bulldog!

GumbaFish Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I love the black and white on the shoulderpads. Not that the yellow isn't nice but I just find the black with white fangs to be really striking.

Skidion Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Hate to be a parrot, but these look fantastic! I've been thinking about investing in an airbrush for a while, and knowing next to nothing about them, do you have any suggestions of a good beginner brush, or the one you started on?

Dosjetka Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Am I right in saying that I saw a Titan foot in one of the first pics? ;) Could we maybe see it, though it has nothing to do with your commission?

I recommend the Iwata range, I use the HP model, hmmm or could it be the BH?, anyhow its the 0.2mm ....will check later! Am I right in saying that I saw a Titan foot in one of the first pics?

BulldogUK Posted May 15, 2010 Author Share Posted May 15, 2010 Just to dot the I's and cross the T's he asked me to make up a banner with some sort of personal icon to show the whole army as my work. I figured there was really only one option! Keeps in the K9 theme too I suppose :D http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/Bulldogbanner2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v429/BulldogUK/Bulldogbanner3.jpg the whole wolf pack can be seen on my website Wolves n stuff Hopefully that's got it out of my system now and I won't want to blow any wonga on my own army!
