Space Wolves Reclamation Project 01

When I first took the plunge into a Space Wolves army, I decided to try to paint them to the GW color scheme. In this effort, I painter up a number of vehicles, Dreds, and terminators. And I tried to do a fine line highlight on them, which worked from 3ft away but felt chunky and clumsy up close.

Over time, I decided to just paint them the way I wanted to paint them, which resulted in the work I did for the 2013 Hobby Progress Challege put on by the Independent Characters Podcast.

But that left me with a mixed force of blue space wolves and proper members of the Rout done up in grey.  And I've always wanted to address that issue and get them properly painted up.

So... My test model, before and after.  This is just a quick Vallejo London Grey with Nuln Oil, and then a touch up to some heretofore neglected Metallica, and an Agrathax wash for his face.

Nothing special, but it gets him where he needs to be ...all in just 20 minutes.

He could still use some highlights, but the grey scheme makes him much less cartoonish.
