That horde is brill! You must be very dedicated to paint at that level on soooo many models! How long did it take to paint that unit?

Lovely work!

[Hybrid Alpha]

Thanks for your comments and welcome

Andym - I'm not sure how long they took me. I'll keep track of the painting time with the next horde I do.

That is one fantastic looking horde of skellies.
I did not realise that the Mantic stuff was so good.

Beautiful paintjobs and great basing combined to wonderful effect.

Those are BEAUTIFULLY DONE...I love the colors you chose & your brushwork & basing are SUPERB. I for one am looking forward to the evolution of the Army.

[Andrew May]

Really nice!
For some reason I can see the RBG wraith knights making good champions.

Thanks guys 


Andrew May -  I came across those a couple of days ago. They are beautiful and they're on my shopping list.

Mason - Mantic's Undead range is very nice. I also like the aesthetics of Mantic's Elves. I like the fact that they don't have a normal anatomy. It makes them look more otherworldly. The only thing I would like to change is their spears. I wish that they had proper spears, or at least proper spear tips. I bought a box of them and painted one up in darker colours, the way I imagined they should look. Here is how it turned out:



Then I added wings:





Now I have an entire elf army waiting to be assembled and painted. They won't all have wings though. Only a couple of small units will have wings.

Just a quick picture to remind people how small the elves actually are.



I can't comment on the Orcs, Dwarves or Goblins, as I don't own any.

[Lowtardog]

The undead are stunning and your elves are the best example I have seen

[Doomhippie]

Elves with wings??? I shudder, yet cannot deny the fact that they look really great. Did you paint those wings yourself? They look awesome.

[Andrew May]

Interesting. What are the wings made of?

[Sterling Moose]

They look awesome with wings!

[Hybrid Alpha]

Thanks chaps 

Doomhippie -  at you shuddering, yet still thinking they look good. I made the wings myself.

Andrew May - I've been asked to put a tutorial together showing how I make them. I'll post that here once it's done.

I love the Mantic Elves & what you're doing with them...particularly the butterfly wings. They have a Faerie Kingdom/Sidhe look to them, which is how I generally think of Elves. VERY WELL DONE!
