Ghost -- Prepwork 2

I am in somewhat of a "routine" with the Night King's armour, with which I am comfortable. It should come as no surprise then that the more I do, the quicker the procedure becomes, which frees-up some time. . . 

That time, at this point, can best be spent on Ghost. The paws, save for final detailing and fini- shing, are now done. The same can be said of Ghost's pelt.

Which leaves me with the dentition. This was truly an undefined--and completely unnecessary!!!--disaster. After compiling a folder of graphic references of lupine dentition, I was ready to proceed. The right side, including the canines, is now done. By the end of next weekend, I hope to have the dentition completed. DONE!

I also enhanced Ghost's expression and cranio-facial folds--still a bit more work to be done as I begin to finalize the mouth. . .

Before closing, I will note that in both of the current GoT projects, I have spent quite a bit of time visualizing the painting as a precursor to the modifying. This not only is a time-saver, but it keeps the complete finished product as the ultimate goal, not a byproduct. . .
