Cometh the Wolf

TK-J · Sep 21, 2010

So surprise surprise, I got the bug. Costume 2 on the way. I couldn't really decide whether I wanted to do Wolf or P2, so I ended up with bit's 'n pieces for both. Wolf won out this round, P2 will be next.

It is based on one of the last Seahunter skins produced with a Bob Bagy closed mouth Wolf mask, Mannowar feet, hands, shins and some armor parts. I have one of biohunter76's Wolf bios in customs, and the parts from Ruffkintoy are on their way.

So pics so far.

Comments appreciated.

The deep red was a last minute addition. I know it probably shouldn't be red but I'm really going for some shock value. Going to try hard to scare some kiddies this year at Armageddon

Arrgghhh! Don't remind me. The part I like least. It's all hanging up outside after being dyed last night.
If this guy looks half as good as yours, I'll be happy

holy ****! This is AWESOME! I want my skins to come out just like this! You did such a good job man! So much personality in that mask!

Are you using my Boar bios for this?

TK-J · Sep 22, 2010

Not on this one Gene. Going to try to keep this build all Wolf.

TehEl1te · Sep 22, 2010

TK-J... could you possibly tell me what colors you used for the upper and lower skins? I love those colors. I understand if you want to keep that to yourself

I just would love to use something similar to it in my custom pred

I have no secrets

1. base coat - white
2. all over with skin tone/sand with 10% burnt umber mixed in
3. cracks, skin folds and random splotches with raw umber.
4. all over with skin tone/sand with 10% white mixed in. This will dull step 3.
5. outline shaded/dark area with raw umber then fill in
6. outline shaded areas and blend into raw umber areas with yellow oxide with 10% burnt umber mixed in
7. paint in all black bumps and dots
8. shade over and blend dark areas with burnt umber
9. highlight black dots again where necessary
10. shade over dark areas with deep green
11. liquitex/permawet clearcoat

Hope that helps

My new Wolf bio courtesy of biohunter76. Thanks Casey, love it. It fits the Bob bagy closed mouth Wolf mask perfectly.

pretty sweet wolf are you going to switch out the feet from P1 to wolf or just keep the P1 feet and call it even

either way great paint up look forward to seeing this complete

TehEl1te · Sep 24, 2010

AWESOME! That looks so good. That is one of my favorite bios. Your suit is coming along SO GOOD!

The feet will stay for the moment. The hands are P2 as well. I'm under a bit of pressure to have him done for a Con on Oct 16.
Planning on getting the netting and thigh armor on today and having a little strut tonight

Got the netting on finally. And made up a bandolier of sorts. The skulls are latex ones that come with my first suit and will have to do until I can get some decent ones.
