After searching on the internet for wolf photos to get inspiration, I decided to paint it as a "white" wolf (i.e., a mix of white and dark grey colors).
For the white parts, I basecoated with Green Ochre (914) + Beige (917). After that, a wash of Burnt Umber (941) has applied. I finished with several drybrushings of the base color, base color + beige + white, finishing with pure white on the most exposed parts.
For the grey parts, I started with a mix of Neutral Grey (992) + Green Ochre (914) + Beige (917). After a wash of Neutral Grey + black, I highlighted with a drybrushing of the base color + white.
The inside of the skin is painted in Green Ochre, and some freehand was done using Yellow Ochre (913).
I basecoated the boots using Burnt Umber. Then I highlighted by adding Snakebite Leather to the Burnt Umber, finishing with pure Snakebite.
The yellow parts are basecoated with Mithril Silver (Citadel) followed by a wash of Flat Yellow (953). For the orange parts, I basecoated with Bright Gold (Coat d'Arm), followed a wash of Orange Red (910).
I basecoated with a mix of Orange Red (910) and Cam. Extra Dark Green (896). Then I highlighted with Orange Red, Deep Orange (851) and Flat Yellow (953).
I decided to use metallic paints for the blade, so I painted it in Mitril Silver (Citadel). Then I applied a wash of black, and gave highlights with Silver Grey (883). I finished with a wash of Mithril Silver.
The gold parts are painted with Ochre Marron (856), highlighted by adding white, and shaded by adding Burnt Umber.
For the rock, I used a piece of pine bark - glued on the base with PVA glue. I covered the remaining part with wood putty.
I basecoated it using Citadel White spraypaint.
For the stone, I started with Stone Grey (884). Then I applied a wash of Flat Earth (983), followed by a wash of black. After that several drybrushings of the base color + white, finishing with pure white. A touch of green to "bring life" was also applied.
For the snow, I used baking soda mixed with PVA glue and water. I finished by touching up with Sky Blue (961) to give a wet effect.
Voila! Hope you'll like it.
