Description Space Wolves captain, giving speech to his lambs. Wow, that was a heavy joke.
I am not very proud of this one here. Looked better as a sketch.

That looks very good. I like the hair! Interesting that you've given the leg armour a different shape to the usual.

Btw! I think it's the sky that makes it look 80's! ;D Since green is a color I've never seen in the sky except during northern lights Think a bit more naturally when you make scenery maybe?

Happened to see that some previous posters mentioned that it looks 80's, but goddamn, how do you NOT make the space wolves look 80's? They're all greyish, yellow and red details + orange hair. Totally old toy c:

I don't really understand the sky here... I see if you wanted to make the whole "burning by the horizon" effect but... I don't know if that involves a green tone... (I could be mistaken and you wanted to make just an interesting sky, but I'll hand you my 2 cents worth anyway) a fiery sky is best created through simply using blue, yellow and red (maybe orange if you wanna) and letting the paint again mix into eachother and make a smooth gradience OR IF IT'S CLOUDY YOU MAKE THE "REFLECTIONS" OF THE LIGHT BELOW ON THE CLOUDS! (capslock, lolololoololol)

Foreign skies most likely have smoother and more natural colors anyway. Remember the cover on the Tau Codex? That's most likely an alien sky, and still looks quite reasonable, am I right?
The sky always gets darker and bolder the higher from the horizon it gets. So it's weird that it's paler upwards here than downwards.

And yes, I know that you don't want to listen to that, but that's how it is. Look at the sky yourself, look at photos of it etc...

Nay! D8<
Don't be liek dis, I'm trying to help you

Best thing to do when making a sky to make it full and bold is to layer the colors like I showed you on the dreadnought! (If you use that allover the pic, the colors in general will become stronger without you having to use a load of pigment )

Looks good in my opinion, but the blue on the armor is closer to Ultrasmurf colors than Space Puppies. Over all a very good job

Wow, yeah I know what you mean. 80's GW - actually most
fantasy art had this sort of feel to it that you can
pick it out instantly. This fits right in with it!
