About the Project
In this project I will go through some experimentation with painting in the Grimdark style and using those lessons learned to develop my own, more gritty paint style. I will be using oil paints for the first time in combination with acrylics, enamels and some wax paints, hence the title...

The Wolf Who Cried Mud!
Getting back into painting after a bit of an unplanned hiatus and I found out that the only muddy basing paste I had had dried out. I don’t really use basing pastes any more, but I still had a pot of textured weathering effects that with a bit of water will hopefully work on this base.
Dirty Wolf and Heads on Pikes.
I got the shading done on the wolf and the heads on pikes….
Midnight Boudi.
One midnight painting session later and I got the highlighting & detailing done on Frost Shaman Boudi.
Face, base and more face.....
Little bit more work on the wolf, mostly the face and the base.
And then I did start a bit with my face practice. Going to see how much shading will do after this.
Muddy Boudi.
Yesterday I got the second layer of weathering on Frost Shaman Boudi from Hasslefree Miniatures done. I am updating the paint job on this model to my newer standard as a test for updating my whole fantasy army.
Oily Boudi.
I got the first layer of weathering on Frost Shaman Boudi from Hasslefree Miniatures done. I am updating the paint job on this model to my newer standard as a test for updating my whole fantasy army.
WOLF!
My first time doing fur with oil paints. I am quite happy with the result and will do the details with acrylics once this is cured. The model is the Wolf Companion from Atlantis Miniatures.
Updating an Old Model.
This is Frost Shaman Boudi from Hasslefree Miniatures, a model I painted before. I re-based her in my newer style and updating the paint job to my newer style without fully repainting the model. This is test piece for updating my whole fantasy army.
Before this I removed her from her old base, glued her onto a new one. Did the basing in my newer style, primed it by hand and you see where I am at now.
