Oathmark Elf conversions
« on: December 28, 2018, 04:38:31 PM »
Here’s a trio of elf types that I converted for my Celtic mythology project; these may see action as sidhe or similar. They’re Oathmark plastic elves with arms from Gripping Beast plastic Saxons and some extra parts from Victrix Ancient Spanish to get a slightly more Celtic look.

I love these guys.

Where is the bare-headed head from? I’ve been stuggling to find suitable 28mm clean shaven heads.

They look chuffing great!

Not sure about elves with tashes, but the overall look of them is superb, really seamless kitbashing.  8)

Thank you! The bare head is from the Victrix Ancient Spanish range. There’s some brilliant spare parts in there.

If I'm not mistaken, in some of Tolkein's art he portrays men with 'pectoral' like armour?

If I'm honest I'm not sure that it is his own artwork.....  ??? ??? ???
