Glad you like them! It’s funny, I think a lot of painters, me included, can’t ‘see’ their own style, like not recognising an accent because you and everyone around you speaks it daily. If that makes sense. Anyhow, thanks

more lovely figures and painting.

can't seem to find a 'grey elf / elves' listing on the Fenris site, within the Bronze Age miniatures section ...

Interesting to hear Dickinson has continued penning the odd tale ... didn't know that, and will look into it.

Fenris Ian has been pretty snowed under the last 2 weeks. It shouldn’t be too long hopefully. There’s a Bronze Age order every few weeks, and I’m sure he’d want the grey elves up on the store by then.

And thank you!

Another grey elf with wolf cloak and all black arms and armour. There's only another 3 to go then I'll decide whether to paint the remaining non wolfy elves in a similar scheme or something more traditionally elven. The next is the first guy, who I'm deciding wether might make a good banner bearer.

The grey elves should be up on the Fenris site now

By 'Dickinson' are you, perhaps, referring to that distiguished academic and Greek bronze age expert, Dr Oliver TPK Dickinson, now retired reader emeritus of the department of classics and ancient history, university of Durham? He did, indeed, continue to pen the odd tale, among his many academic papers and books on the Aegean Bronze Age!

er, yes - that's right?

I was aware of his main gig in Academe from back in the day.
In the context of the thread, thought using his surname only (after being fully named in an earlier post) wouldn't be causing too much outrage / indignation 

I wasn't trying to confuse anyone into thinking I meant David Dickinson for example.

I have to admit, I had no idea until a few years ago when I stumbled across the connection! It was just too good an opportunity to miss though - those were the days when White Dwarf had a much better class of writer entirely!

I love the white on that pelt. Consider that colour combination stolen

[Frugalmax]

Another great paint job! This thread is pushing me closer and closer to buying more miniatures...

It’s pretty simple! The only colours used are a pale grey, white and a pale blue wash. I’m making a conscious effort to reduce colours and techniques needed. Skin uses a similar method.

You know you want to

I’m always on the lookout for funky shield designs, especially when you can purchase them individually rather than with the miniature. These are from Crocodile Games Aegyptus and Olympius range. I love the rectangular tower shields and will be using them on as many miniatures as I can! The current grey elves will each have an ornate shield of various styles to give them a well travelled, wealthy look. The Golden Fleece will make an awesome objective.

[beefcake]

Those are cool shields, nice find. And the fleece is a very nice objective! Can't wait to see them painted

Another member of the White Wolf mercenary company. He’ll be the last for a few weeks as I wait for the final 2 to arrive, Elric and an archer. I’ve also got an actual wolf mid way through, a Tom Meier Dark Sword mini, as a company mascot. Also by Bronze Age, there are a whole bunch of non elves wearing wolf cloaks or hoods, so I might extend the theme to add a few local auxiliary scout types.

If the elves still haven’t arrived by the time I finish the wolf, I have a gladiator with a pet hyaenadon to keep me busy till then.

A good looking band with a unique look.
