Have U Ever Danced With the Devil...

I had always wanted to paint a wolfen under the moonlight. Varghar, a limited edition model from Rackham seems to be the perfect model with its really cool pose. However, I put it off since wolfen wasn't the race I'm gaming with and I wanted to paint it only when I feel I'm ready.

After seeing a version of this model done by a member on the Wyrd website, I was greatly inspired and decided its time I paint mine up. I also wanted mine to look a little different from the original version by giving it a weapon swap. I've been working with white undercoat but this time I decided to use black since what I have in mind would be very dark. I primed it white as usual and painted it with 3 coats of black to get a nice smooth base to work with.
From there, I sprayed white from the top to get an idea of where the moonlight will fall on the model. Some oxford blue (VMC 807), dark sea grey (VMC991) and black was mixed to create a base colour for the skintone. I tried to keep all the colours very muted by adding grey to whatever colours I used.

To add some sense of motion to the otherwise static pose, I created a water splash with Vallejo water effects and still water. At the end, I'm very happy with the final result. Now to pick a new model and find more inspiration for it. Till then, Ciao!
