A nice early start on the Wolfen, I like the warrior priest too. Interesting that you have decided to paint all the different parts of the Wolfen separately, I tend to assemble the model and only leave parts off where attaching them would make it nigh on impossible to paint the areas behind them.

The priest is really coming along, I like the direction you are taking the armour now. I would suggest to keep going with it, make it look really used and weathered.
Great start on that wolfen too, his lower section looks really well done so far.

The priest is looking very good--I really like the freehand. As I look at him, I think he could use some stronger darklining to separate the various areas. It looks good on the red armor bits, but I think it could be a bit heavier between the armor and tunic as well as the skin/tunic interface. Solid start on the Wolfen--I like the greens.

Wolfen Hunter  The previous wolf was finished but my mum liked it so I gave it to here next time I get down there I will take a piccy or two. Not gotten any further with the priest as I thought I may stripp and start again but not decided yet. |

Both the empire priest and the wolfen look great. I really like the writing on the scrolls on the empire priest The green cloth on the wolfen is also well blended Keep up the good work |

Looking good so far. I like especially the blendings on the arm. Maybe some mid tone glazes would help to bring the colour more together.

Really great work on that skin. I would suggest coming up a bit more, giving the muscles more of a striated look to match the sculpt.

looking good, the bone could use some more contrast to get the shading on it abit more, and the skin looks in one photo as if it could do with more shading and the other more highlighting, you have confused me man!! lol, great so far though ;D

great looking beast so far. You have a few small brown spots on the skin from when you were glazing the hair.
