More painted models... these ones are Wulfen, from Rackham's Confrontation. They took a ridiculous amount of time to paint, probably because of the large surface areas - the bases are about 50mm across, making these considerably bigger than most of the models I've painted lately.
I got to experiment a bit more with colours that I rarely use. The deep red armour plates go all the way from purple in the shadows, to orange on the highlights - something I've started to do a bit more of since painting these. The first of the Wulfen has warm red-brown flesh, which started life as a very strange shade of magenta - still visible in some of the recesses...
For the Sacred Vestal (far right) I decided to use the large surfaces to try blending many more shades than I'd usually use. The highlights (collarbones, tops of shoulders, cheekbones) are almost white, with lots of different browns and greens making up the shadows. All the shading is done with really thin glazes (water + glaze medium + paint), built up in several translucent layers to tint the colours underneath.
Larger versions are ( behind the cut )
