Thanks guys. Really pleased with how she came out.

Halfway through greenstuffing and painting a wolf pelt standard my brain decided it didn’t work for the model I made it for. Thanks brain!

Another well travelled grey elf mercenary in a wolf cloak and leaning on a large shield. I wanted something that looked like heavy infantry but not the usual hoplite shield. All members of the unit will have a different shield from another era or place, so the next one is getting an Egyptian shield with fantasy bling.

Dang, that looks great! Like I need more miniatures, but this is inspiring... Do I need these miniatures? Do my kids really need swim lessons?  Decisions... Excellent work, thanks for posting!

Thanks everyone  :)


Finished another grey elf mercenary but the arrows for my funky bullet time pose haven’t arrived yet! The horror. The chariot is slowly puttering along a bit at a time. Eventually it’ll reach critical mass and I’ll focus on its properly and get it done but for now it’s something to do in between paint drying etc.

I could only scavenge one arrow so stuck it through her shield. I messed up the alignment slightly so the arrow nicks her shield hand so did a dot of blood. Also rearranged the pose from back foot dodge to leaping forward. Another 4 elven mercenaries to go so hopefully they’ll all be done early August.

Really great stuff! I especially like how you're painting style creates a high level of contrast between the bright colors and the dark shadows in the recesses. It looks really clean but also adds a feeling of "realism" (that's probably not the best word for it, but oh well). Nice work!
