Very nice.  The red and gold go well together.  Its funny how often elves are painted wearing blue or white, but these red elves certainly look the part.

I agree, my first introduction to elves were High Elves back in 4th edition Warhammer and that definitely shaped my idea of the Elven color schemes for a long time.

Great looking force of elves there. The colour scheme is really striking.

Fantastic stuff. That colour scheme really works for them. The mage fits in really nicely too.

Completed a pack of Elven Characters, no names as of yet. 



A box of Human warriors with metal character models:



First are the Wolftail Warriors led by Derfel Cadarn. One of my favorite literary characters of all time.  I know the shields are off and he had a different banner but I plan on my dwarfs to have a mostly black and white color scheme. My planned background for my Oathmark kingdoms is that the elves and dwarves are the main armies with goblins and humans acting mainly as mercenaries - very similar to the late Roman armies.

I am not 100% sold on the paint scheme and actually painted the models twice but decided to stick with this for the time being.  The majority of the heads are from Fireforge and the wolf tails are actually from the goblin wolf rider box.



Another unit of men inspired by the Warlord Trilogy is a group of Human Spearmen lead by Owain.  The heads are mostly from the Frostgrave barbarians.

I think they all look great. Really like the shields on the Wolftail lads.

Thanks everyone!  I wasn’t sure about the blue figures and they seem to be a hit.  Guess I’ll definitely stick with that color scheme. 

Now, just need to get my hands on the Oathmark rules.  My package is in postal limbo.

Elf Light Infantry Archers. I had originally planned to do these in a complementary color scheme to my other elves but decided on green.
