First Fantasy post on LAF. It has to be Elves -Now with Skorne added

[Thew1]

Greetings,

I am a long time LAF lurker turned newbie.

Had this one sitting around for a while so thought it would be a good first post seeing as the GW HE were my first miniature army (and are still not painted  )



Hope it displays ok.

Here goes nothing......

That's really nice!

I love the burgundy/gold/cream combination on his clothes and armour, and the inside of the cloak is perfect for an elf! Great paintjob!

[DoctorPete]

Nicely done!  The cloak is outstanding.  Looking forward to more posts.

Nice Job!!

[Rhoderic]

Nice! That paintjob just feels... right. The inside of the cloak, the sheen effect on the blade and the colour choices overall are perfect.

Always loved this figure, BTW. Originally a White Dwarf freebie (around the time Mordheim was first released), wasn't it? I'm still unhappy I never got one

[Lowtardog]

welcome aboard, lovely painting, the inside of the cloak is inspired

[DeafNala]

That is a SPLENDID introduction...WELCOME ABOARD!
Your take on Aenur is EXCELLENT; the cape is particularly striking. GREAT WORK!

[warburton]

Lovely work

It did come with a White Dwarf issue, but I think that it was sold as well. Aenur, Sword of Twilight. There's usually a good few on eBay at any given time.

Nicely done, and welcome in from the coldness of lurkingdom

Post more stuff please

Nice work, I like the way you put the curve into the sword.

I always struggle highlighting metal.

Thank you all for the warm welcome and very kind comments.

It is indeed the Aenur, sword of twilight mordheim character. I only ever played a couple of games of mordheim but really liked the way it played and always wanted one of these. My brother picked this one up on ebay for me along with a load of 90s era dragon knights which I must get started on one of these days.

So much lead, so little time 

Thanks again.

I will try to get some more photos up this weekend

[Thew1]

Well apologies for the delay in posting anything else. I'm going to crack on with painting some elves directly. In the meantime, here's a few pictures of the start of my warmachine hordes Skorne army.


The Edward scissor hands lookalike is a general type character called Morghoul and the big fella is a skorne titan gladiator. He was christened Derek in his first outing playing against my friends Pete and Andy. I don't normally go in for the gore effects but it fits with the feel of the Skorne and I wanted to experiment a bit.

Hope you like them.

Cheers
