well, it's been awhile. All manner of things conspired to make sure I've had no rest and not much time for painting. I've got to say these almost had me quit painting for a good long while too. Somehow after I was 90% finished I realized I'd painted the scheme inverted and I was prepared to strip them down and start over. Thankfully the client suggested a different scheme which only put their completion off by a week. All in all they didn't turn out horrible for a higher end table top quality job given the circumstances. These are painted up as Wolf in Exile Beta.

There were minor conversions on these for pose and giving the hellstar some beefier torso PPC's. I believe that the next couple of weeks will be spent prepping a large number of models for painting since we are hitting the cold season soon and I don't want to mess with priming outside.

Wow. Not too often that I'm left speechless, but... damn. That Hellstar in particular is just beautiful.

Very good! Even if my allegiance is with Crusaders at a whole, got to acknowledge the quality here!

I'm particularly impressed with the Lobo - a mini that's always looked slightly melted to me.

Bloody Brilliant work lad.

Nice to see the Arctic Wolf. Been a while since I've seen one of them done up.

The PPC conversion on the Hellstar is very well done. If I didn't know better, I might have thought it came that way, straight from the mold!

Excellent paint work as well!

Excellent... >:D

They do really look great though, and I agree that the Hellstar mod for the PPC's looks stellar

Top notch skill, be proud

Fantastic work- the Hellstar in particular turned out well, modding the torso guns helps that mini a ton.

The Arctic Wolf looked weird to me at first, until I realized the reason was my own fault- it's been ages since I've seen one unmodified, the only ones I own are (all three) modified with Thunderbolt heads added between the shoulders in place of the original head. ;D
