Just thought I'd start a new project log to help motivate me to paint steadily, so without further ado... It's a Space Wolf riding a bear! Let me know what you think

Wow nice work! Planning to do a whole lot of these guys or just individual models like this?

If I can get the cash together, there are two other variations (one of the bears has cybernetic bits) then I'll be painting them in the same scheme so they can count as Thunderwolf Cav. Not sure that's the right size base for Cav though.

Looks good, not too sure of the color scheme. Looks kinda like my old orange orks, but not as gaudy but close. Still a good job though.

Thanks man, initially it was supposed to be a red scheme, but things tend to evolve while I paint heh.

Brilliant model. Love the orange. Be keen to hear how to managed it.

When I get home from work I'll post a picture of the paint's I used in order of layer with some notes. Thanks for the compliment!

Realization is excellent. Color choice not so good...but i'm a slaaneshi cultist so what do i know?

Excess...and that Eldar are scrumptious

SPACE BEARS! Why hasn't that been made a cannon Chapter?

Because unlike GWs unwillingness to make their steeds anatomically correct, Kremloch (I think?) is so bold as to make that leap.

I used this range of paint's adding 1/1 ratios stepping from color to color after the initial base. Most was airbrushed and then the ghost tint was added to the armor plating last after...

...applying a base color and layers to the bear fur using this range in the same ratio fashion I applied the armor, but with my lightest layer of a creamy brown I purposefully over sprayed sparsely along areas of the edges of armor plating so that they would appear more yellow in the crevasses, rather than just orange, in order to give a nice smooth transition to the orange.

If you would like to see it being painted you can search Twitch for the user name 'Hellathos' and look at my recent videos. It was painted wholly on stream

Current project of fully converted Thousand Sons in early stages of painting.

Poor pictures but once I'm done with the airbrushing I'll take them off the corks and take better ones.

Ok, been slogging through to get these guys finished amongst a myriad of different projects and now, with the exception of painting some script and ringing the bases with paint, they are finally finished. Sadly, as an over critical painter striving to become better, I know that I've rushed this project to complete it and it shows; in the lack of highlights, edging, and an apparent over spray issue when trying to do osl with ghost tints. I tried a many new personal theories with this project and it has been a great learning experiment, both in the painting and conversion aspects, so overall I'm satisfied with them in their current state. Hope you enjoy them! Next project will come to the log much quicker

Thanks man, maybe I'll add a spot of white to it or something.

Just a few pieces of terrain from the Macragge set that was excavated from the bowels of the sarlacc that is my closet, two days ago. Didn't have the patience to go to detailed with them, but I think they'll do

Yeah, but it was a shame that I couldn't find that small wing bit, bummed I didn't get to paint the full set. I'm sure the closet holds many more secrets. Ill have to look harder. Those are looking great btw, definitely am improvement and I'm a sucker for red heh.

Well, until you throw a wash on it we won't know. It looks a bit bright if that's what you're going for. GW Scab Red looks like it may have been a bit closer, but like I said, a wash could mean the difference

No worries man, this is my medium through which I connect with other painters and share what I've got for the table Be sure to shoot me a finished pic bud.

Newest commission Just sent it off recently. After looking over the photos I really wished I had focused on the base more.

Commissions a plenty. Didn't do the bases for these, scenic bases were bought and planned to be swapped in the future. Second hand grey knights repainted for a client. Sounds like I'll be painting 5 DKs coming up, so that should be fun
