It took me about 2 seconds to look up the colors for Wolfie, and with that I had a thought. This cartoon series was supposedly started in 1970. I would have been 10 years old, and tho I don't remember the cartoon, I would have been building models for a year or two. So I decided except for putting the extra thick gloss on the base, I would paint it like a 10 year old. I couldn't leave it with drips and drabs but left all the other tasks out. I didn't use any washes around the minor details. There's also no highlighting and shadows either.
As I started painting I did realize that I made a huge mistake in assembling the entire model first. I definitely should have left the the/neck separate to get into all those tiny areas. But the 10 year old would have built it all up, so I tried my best to get in all the little nooks and crannies. And after an hour of painting I was done. Thanks for looking.
