Freshly painted and posted to my blog! See what you think. I used pretty much nothing but the SW box.

i love them lev!

youre going to have to teach me how you achieved that dark crisp color though. I really do like the wolves without much yellow.

I really like your blue! Mind sharing your recipe?

Yes your color's intensity is amazing. When the Wolves lack the yellow in excess they seem to look much better.

I'm assuming a lot of that blue is Shadow Grey?

Thanks guys!

There will be some yellow, but I have drastically toned down the quantity, using it only on shoulder pads of wolf guard and bloodclaws. And even then it is a darker, heavily washed version.

I wanted the armor to be darker but still recognizable as wolves, so it is heavily based on shadow grey. Well spotted.The base coat is a mix of shadow grey & black with a few drops of codex grey. Then highlighted with pure shadow grey, and a final highlights of shadow & codex grey. It ends up one of those colors that changes in different light types, jumping between blue and grey tones.

Looks really nice. I like the darker color too. I'm still trying to decide how I want mine to look. :)

Might I suggest using a second light source on the opposite side of the one you are using? This will make the pics look much better.
