These are a few early progress photos of a project I'm currently working on. I may sell the little guy after it's all said and done. I apologize in advance for the poor quality of the initial photos as they were taken with a cell phone. The finished project will likely be photographed more formally. Comments are welcome!

The photos here show his skin, as well as the early stages of his armor. (NOTE: The mane isn't finished; I merely used a coat of Dark Flesh to block out the borders of his face.)

Thanks for viewing, and be sure to check out my website for commissions!

That is an awesome figure! cant wait to see it completed

I am liking the smoothness of that grey! Indeed. Looking forward to seeing more of this.

Sorry for the delays. Things have been hectic. Long and short of it, here's some updated photos. I've done some of the yellows, and I began work on the fur. The dead wolf still needs eyes, claws, some highlighting, and a nose, but you get the picture. I like the contrast.

Fixed photos; set so public can view them. Let me know if you still have problems viewing the updates.

Sorry (again) for the delay (again). Timing has been weird. Anyway, here are some updates as to what I've been working on. I've started work on his forked beard, as well as the various stone/skull pieces around the miniature.

Enjoy!!

Beard (beginning):

The beard will become lighter and/or slightly less saturated by the end.

I'm also repainting the tabbard/pelt beneath his belt, as I wasn't satisfied with it. There's still some spots with no paint on them yet, as well as the WWE style belt (which I'm undecided on). Some details around the pistol, as well as a few claws and medallions also remain.

Thanks for your support and comments thus far!

I can't stand Flickr, I swear...

Some of their links will work on B&C, but not here, and vice versa. Anyone having problems viewing them?

Grrrr....linky's rather than imbedded photos

Grrrr....can't blow up the picture to inspect the detail

Grrrr....ruining the moment of viewing a beautifully painted mini.

Still, got to say I really like the direction you went with the wolf pelt. Red Wolf if I am not mistaken rather than the typical grey wolf color scheme. Very nice.

looks good tho

I was gone for a while, and I never got a hold of a good camera, so this will be more of the same, low-quality images. It really doesn't do the model justice. Not to toot my own horn, but it looks good in person.

There are some runes on the base, which my phone camera couldn't snap without being a total blur. I carved them into my sculpted base. I was going to use some lava rock as a basis for Njal, but I couldn't find a shape I was pleased with, so I just built the scenery from scratch using Milliput for the mountain, and some slabs from a Gale Force 9 kit. Every color in the model itself was also used on the base.

I will go back and do some touch ups as I see fit. For now, I need to avert my eyes for a while and focus on another project before returning to Mr. Stormcaller.

I hope you enjoy, and a big thanks to those who followed the project!

Images aren't showing up?

Ugh....Of the 7 websites I have posted these images, DakkaDakka is the only one where I encounter problems with the embed links.

I'll try to get them fixed....
