The model looks great with some very sharp detail. The design though is really disappointing. It looks pretty much like every other GW-styled High Elf on the market, even down to the plate breastplate, long kite shield and the tall helmet. Really can't get excited about it...

I thought the opposite about the design, it's a really nice take on a common concept. The armour styling, the cloak and especially the curved shield are all very nice touches and the result looks really interesting.

Unfortunately I've never had any interest in playing Elves so I'm going to have to pass. But good luck.

Thank you guys for your comments.

MaxRomek, I am sorry if you are disappointing with the design. We have designed elfs that you can use with another High Elves army. Besides we have added our own details. Honestly the look much like LOTR elves thant Warhammer Elves.

I think they look great!! How do they compare size-wise with GW LOTR elven figures? Good luck with your project.

I think they look ace. Nice design, not too intricate and over the top (which Elves usually are!) and nice posing. I like him!

Tx Guys!

Hitman, as soon as we got a scale test, we will upload images. We are designed 32mm figures, LOTR are 28mm... anyway we will take any picture next to a LOTR model for you ;)

Malebolgia, our elves are multipose figures, so, this pose one is only a example ;)

Maxromek, LOTR is one of our referents, no the only one. Finally we have a mix of to many resources.

They look good!

Though that spearman looks a bit 'stout' maybe, not as slender as the artwork. At the very least, don't you think he'd look better with a longer spear?

The short spear and it's large tip/blade are for slashing, not for stabbing. So if you're meaning to rank them up the spears should be longer ( about 1,5 times the height of the elf, at least ) with a mucht smaller tip. If not, you should change the shield design into something more short and "workable" in a 1 on 1 combat situation. But hey, it's fantasy and if you feel it looks good, go ahead with it.
But I like the design of both the elves, armour is tidy and archaic, nothing wrong with that  :).

 Thank you guys for your comments!

 Everybody like longer and slimmer spears, but we must think about production too. Anyway I hope the way that we see spears will change when we got the figures in our hands.

I quite like the look of these elves as they fit (well almost) with my idea of Tolkien's elves.  Now if their size and proportions fit with my GW LOTR collection I would consider them.

Probably better to scale them the same as Warhammer elves, to maximise potential sales.

I like them, will keep an eye out for the kickstarter.

They look quite nice, and would be a good fit for Kings of War.
