The back of the wings especially, just stunning!

Yeah, I edged the back of the wings in white, something not very noticeable from certain views, but I thought it was a nice little obscure detail for the owner; a reason to look at the piece from all angles.

I noticed that, too. Very cool! 8)

Did you use paint (airbrush?), or pastels for him? The blending is amazing.

I was wondering the same thing….

Airbrush and paintbrush blending, depending on the layer and color (and my mood). No pastels. I used pastels for this piece, but I don’t like how pastels react on any of the other sculpts, due to their deeply carved details. It tends to look splotchy or dirty because the pastels tend to stick into the recesses (no offense to pastel painters, I’m just unable to get it to look right!).

Oh wow! Beautiful work!

Finished, although a few things might get played with before it goes up in the Flea Market, as I’m seeing some stuff that bugs me.

Anyways, thanks everyone for your previous comments. I actually took them to heart and tried to sort of rough the paint job up a bit so it didn’t look so soft and clean. I wanted the paint job to look somewhat gritty to more closely follow my inspiration photos like this one. I know, who can say they intentionally dirtied and uglied up their piece? 😆 Me!!! I even misted over some of the white areas (like face and front legs) to give the piece an overall darker as well as grainy look. Overall, I didn’t push it further enough in the gritty direction (it just looked to sweet and I didn’t want to force it somewhere), but I’ll make another wolf someday to more closely follow the photos. Gray fur and yellow eyes and everything else.
