Looks good mate.
However, he does looks a wee bit flat.
You can still improve on this with some pinwashing and some highlighting on the metals.
You can give the wolf skin a wash with some dark browns, red browns and a very small amount of orange and maybe then highlight with some light browns. This will give more tonal variation
Add a wee bit orange to your base reds and highlight them, Add a wee bit dark blue to the red base and you'll get shadows.
That is some really skillful painting you've done there and it's been done to a high standard.
It just looks like you need to do the final touches and this will make him stand out much much more.
Ta for sharing,

Hi Trex & Gells,
I fully understand what you are saying and yes it does look "flat".
I know I can certainly do better then that,but once I deem a model to be finished I won't go back to it
Not one to make excuse's for painting below my standard,I would like to say this was done just prior to getting glasse's and I was struggling to see things.Once I got my glasse's I couldn't believe some of the mistakes I made on all the other model's I'd made,including ships planes cars etc.Thank you for the input
