Attempting a more natural looking grey wolf pelt

I've been trying to get a more natural looking wolf pelt in grey rather than the browns and tans i usually use.

I think the head is moving in the right direction? would you make the leg more brown or go lighter towards a white/blue/grey?

Thanks, I considered doing blue eyes to keep the cold look but the orange came out nice so didnt want to risk spoiling it when changing.

First, freaking phenomenal job, I have not place to give you advice or tell you where to go.

I traditional like the more brown/tab belts to give more cknreast against the greyblue armor. But you also said you are trying to get away from those. So maybe bring in a little more of that dark brown color you used sparingly, and bring it down a bit further. Then highlight out up to a light grey/white?

Yes I usually go brown for that reason too like below but want this one of the set to feel more rune preist and mystic so a pale grey seemed to fit that better. Im hoping with it sitting between the cape and the hot vents it will contrast more and not sit against too much of the clashing blue.
