High Elf Sea Guard
« on: 13 January 2014, 04:33:17 PM »
Finished these up the other day.  I'm using LotR BSG rules, that's why they're based on round bases.  More pictures of smaller groups scattered through out mt blog if you're interested in seeing more.

Nicely done!   :)

The lads look great.  I really like the sea-shell horn, and the dragons on the shields really pop.
When fighting the thousand, you must still defeat them one at a time.

I really like the turquoise on these (actually I like the full models haha)
I remember painting some of these up myself from the island of blood starter and have to admit they are great models.

Did you fit the models fully before painting or did you paint the parts individually? i made them before hand and have to admit I regret not painting on the sprue with most of the starter set models...

Very, very nice. Really like the metals and that turquoise is perfect , contrasts nicely with the red of the dragons and the gemstones.

Thank you, everyone.  I appreciate the feedback and comments.

Matthais-Mouse:  I completely built the models before I painted them.  I bought them from a bits seller on eBay so they were already clipped from the sprue.

Despite being an Eldar back in my GW days I never quite took to normal Elves, but yours look absolutely splendid with the paint on them.  Nice to see them on round bases as well.

Great brushwork they look beautiful. Colours really pop out.
