My version of Santa Claus Space Wolves)
As customary brush and acrylic citadel)

You did a very nice job with a poorly thought out sculpt overall (the "sled" idea). Did you use the traditional colors for the armor or something a bit darker than typical? It seems about halfway between current space wolves and preheresy on my screen.

Hmm, really nice -technically.
Really, its very well done and fresh.

However...
To my personal preference, the choise of colours are unfortunate.
First of all, the green bits make the gold look greenish too.
And the gold itself look too yellow and intense, making it dominate the model that obviously was intended to be quite dark.
It mkes it hard to focus on the model, and at the same time hard to get a solid balanced feel for the model.
The head and hair looks a bit flat and uneventfull; the great wolf deserve some defining character in his face, I think.
Also, the eyes of the wolves dont make sense to me

I really dont think the green fit with the rest of the pallet.
The fur of the wolfes and the cape look awesome though.

It looks stunning.

Jingle wolf, Jingle wolf. Looks amazeballs

There is something about your paint scheme that draws attention away from the face of the miniature, and instead towards the yellow areas on the periphery.

Thank you all)
Only one question - what is the "face thumbnails"? Muzzle of a wolf or two wolves? Wagon? Space Marine Space Marine or a person?
Model is that the focus on a single dimension - this is not correct. Because many items of interest in the whole composition.
