PeteySödes Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 The tatoo color I believe it's ok! Tatooes go palid over time and it just look very old!!! Totally, the current color is intended but i need to blend in the muscle striations and fix some details like his pig snout!

PeteySödes Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 Looks amazing. Where did the head come from? Thanks! Im 99% sure the base is a marauder horsemen head. The goggles are lenses from devastator heads and GS hairwork.

Chazzmos Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 That Iron Priest is looking dope! I really like the goggles up and how you've painted them, they really draw the eye. I'm need to convert a few more wulfen and I've been looking at your heads you converted and your advice on sculpting hair, but I was wondering if you could give me a few more tips. Looking at your photos, it seems like you've mainly added: Furry eyebrows Cheek/mutton chops hair Flattened the nose a little (how did you do this?) Added more hair on top Is that about it? I really like the look you've achieved!

PeteySödes Posted June 6, 2019 Author Share Posted June 6, 2019 Yea that’s pretty much it for the heads. The noses, or nose because I think I only kept one, was mostly just cutting off the tip and adding a a tiny amount of GS to make the nostril flare a bit wider. It was tricky and I’m not sure the juice was worth the squeeze on that aspect. If your going for EoT style I think I’d keep it simple with the feral unkempt hair and some fangs etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322036-the-storm-stalkers-wip-blog/page/20/#findComment-5326768 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazzmos Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Sweet, thanks for that. I've got 8 that I made with primaris bodies and wulfen arms and heads. I want something that matches them enough to make two squads of 5, but if you think it was tricky I'm sure I'll find it like knocking an apple off of a karl's head with a thrown thunder hammer. I might look into just ordering two more heads.

PeteySödes Posted June 6, 2019 Author Share Posted June 6, 2019 I’d for sure encourage you to try though! Any wolf player has plenty of spares to test techniques on.

Chazzmos Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Too true! I should just give it a go and see if I can get something that looks close enough to my other wulfen.

PeteySödes Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 A scattering of progress: Iron Priest himself is done! Wolf progress: It's really really really hard to get black fur right. This was what im going for more or less: Tons more to do, I think Im on the right track. Oddly enough its a known problem in the pet world that black furred animals dont photograph well and hence are less likely to be adopted. The wolf looks really cool in person when you look, but it all goes away when you put him on the table, obviously a problem. So my black wolf has gotten a few more points of interest in the coat than that source pic and i have a few more levels of highlighting and shading to go. Going to get the base colors for the other elements in though first to see how it interacts. Also hard since some of my washes are a bit satin-y so its messing with how dark he looks. I love the color and the finish on the first base coat pic. Was waiting on an order for some of the brown tones in the fur so I started big boy too. Super early and the red stresses me out since it doesnt mesh well at this stage but Im pretty pumped. hammer grimblood, Konnavaer and TiguriusX 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/322036-the-storm-stalkers-wip-blog/page/20/#findComment-5329294 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantay VI Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 The fur on the wolf is freaking phenomenal... Did you do the highlights with the airbrush then use washed to achieve the colour?
