Ooooh, what models are those? You actually found a good werewolf model? You've got me curious!

And don't worry about photo quality, mine are just as bad and I have no plans on upgrading anytime soon. :)

The werewolfs are Lupine ragers,I got all of those mini's from miniature-giant.The gangrel vamp is a dark heavens demoness...I love her cloven hooves.She'll have flying horror,summon ghouls and the WBOBG.

Yeah,there will be stage by stage pics.I'll get them all done,but I work erratically and am prone to sudden fits of productivity.
What follows are the werewolves bases,this basing theme will continue throughout the army.Sparse vegetation will be added later.

good job on the bases but they look empty, werewolves with power of invisibility scary. Shakes in his boots now.

Interesting models, I've never seen them before. It'll be interesting to see how they turn out painted.

Looking beatiful as a start, (waiting on my thing in the woods still) Look forward to seeing it completed. They would work better if they had invisiablity.

I think your wolf looks great at the moment....I think a red wash may make it look a little odd. MAybe a res wash on his arms and around its mouth or something, but not the whole body! He may be a bloodthirsty wolf but hes not a khornite wolf....is he?

Maybe a black wash all over might be betetr if you did want to inclued a wash!

No,more like a vampire sweating blood.I want to imphasize the undead nature of the wolf.Plus,the army itself is gonna be alot of bloody bones and pale skin.The Idea came to me when I was thinking of how to paint my gangrel demoness.IIRC it was "Lady Bathori" or some such who used to bathe in the blood of virgins :perv:
Plus a blood soaked "White Wolf" seemed appropriate to the theme.I'm optimistic,I plan to make it tasteful and highlight over it.For better or worse I should have the results up tomorrow,note:I'm not going for a gorey look.Just blood-slicked.

I like what you have so far, though the pics make it difficult to pick out any detail. The colour scheme suits it well so nicely done.

Thanks,before this tale is through I'll have a better cam and everything will be revisited in detail.I'll have more pics up soon;I'm caught in the gears of my workweek right now,and when I paint it's usually an all day affair.
..Next up Circe Gangrel the daemonette.:perv:

Much more to come....actual painting too! (in case you were wondering)
The models I've shown thus far are far from RnF and will be the showpeices of my army.I'm being very meticulous,as I am much more concerned with the quality of the product than how quickly I can get it done.

I like what I see I love the reaper models so much detail to paint. Looking forward to your next update Count Lasombra.

RE: Lasombra's World of Darkness.(plog)+Circe & friends.

I'm kind of torn right now as to how I should do the ghostly models.My original plan was to use SethDrallitoc's(sp?) method.
Prime black ans graduate greys to white upwards and cover in a wash,
OR..do you think it would look better if I took more advantage of the models details and paint them more "Traditionally"?
A third option I considered was to do the wash thing on just the "flesh",and do the garb and gear normally.
Any advice?
