Underworlds: Rippa Snarlfangs Wolf Riders

A blast from the past! It's some wolfriders! I have some of the old ones someplace, but these are much nicer. Good miniatures that were fun to paint! I particularly like the wolves!

Given the background of Beastgrave (namely, no-one can really die and sometimes creatures get trapped in amber for awhile iirc), I wonder if the wolf riders all died off 1,000's of years ago and nobody bothered to tell Rippa and his Boyz. They could be the last wolfriders in existence!

Noteworthy bits from painting: The white part of the white wolves is contrast white with Pallid Wychflesh highlights. The grey part is contrast grey straight (no highlights or anything). The goblin flesh is contrast orc flesh with Skarsnik and Nurgling highlights. It's a bit on the pallid side (I used something similar for Gloomspite where that look is more appropriate ... I think I'd experiment more if I painted more of surface orc/goblins). Everything else is pretty standard. I'm still struggling with eyes, ironically, in part due to my eyes...
