As Jimsterman said, I would darken the white wolf a bit to contrast the base. Another thing is the scratch on the white wolf. Dried blood and even fersh blood is darker. Paint the scratch black or dark brown and then lighten it up with thin layers of red. Be careful with the mixture of snow and the salt you used. If the Miniature gets into a humid area it will all melt away. I have used the same mix of baking soda with my Sigmar Priest. It's still looking very realistic, but after all that years it crumbles down from the miniature when you touch it. Keep on painting and have fun!

Thank You jimsterman82! That was one of the things that I learned with this piece, I had primered the whole thing with black paint first (I've since purchased white primer) That poor wolf probably has 12 coats of white on it. The base came from one of the blogs on this site, someone had suggested using baking soda and glue, so me and elmers glue put globs where I thought the snow might be mounded up, and lightly brushed the glue on different pieces to let it be dusted, and arm and hammer got in there and made it happen. The crystals are just big chunks of rock salt. Thank you so much for your suggestion!! Drybrushing will certainly help! Thank you :)

Looks cool! I like the base, the snow looks smooth, not like a bunch of small crystals which some people do. One suggestion is for the white wolf, try priming it with a light grey or very light blue then drybrushing the white over it over so you dont lose the details. Also your gold looks like it could use a brown wash then some highlighting to bring out a little more detail. Overall I do like the look!
