Very impressive work Scar. I love all the subtle shades and hues worked into the pale skin of the dwarf's face. Reds and blues... things you wouldn't expect. Are the extreme highlights and shadows (specifically on/under the arms) all painted or is some of that the effect of the lighting?

I'm just looking and the shadows under his arms (say, where he's resting against the stones) all the way to the near-white highlights on the upper parts of the arm armor. I figure some of that is actual light creating shadows and highlights... but I know that painters of your calibur can actually paint those effects in as well. I was just curious as to how much of what I'm seeing was planned by you & how much was just physics.

Its pure white but i used vallejo model air white with a paint brush i find it really nice to paint with since its substance is already thinned down and the paint has more pigments in it.
Since i first did the glowing spots and then painted the runes on them and it is thin white you can see a bit blue coming through.
Fantastic work scar! Best dwarves I've seen for my tastes! Could you go into a little detail about the gator bases? I'm quite partial to juggle bases and would to know more about your approach cheers
Anyway's
Incoming Space wolves army commission!
This is a half painted army done by another studio who disappeared into thin air with my clients money and half of his models.
I think it is really sad these things happen and thank my client for his trust in my studio.
Now onto some pictures!
