These guys are brilliant. I found myself wanting to do the same thing for snowy Frostgrave but I couldn't find anything I liked. You really did a fine job with these.

For me it's the otherway round; I see all images, but the one in your first post... o_o

That was the way it was for moi until today. Now ALL your WONDERFULLY imaginative creations are visible; AND BEAUTIFULLY painted & based they are. VERY WELL DONE!

You've assembled a wonderfully characterful warband. I am very fond of the old Citadel and Marauder dwarves. 

Very nice.

Do you have, like... EVERY model ever created in your collection or something? And you still paint at the speed of some very speedy monster. And stop selling yourself short, as your stuff is AT LEAST as nice as mine, but I think it is actually better! Awesome!!

Thanks fellas.

So you can't have Santa without Elves ....

So here are the Elves:

First the apprentice: (I convertion to give him a staff)



Then in contrast to the Dwarf warband being predominantly Infantrymen ... I wanted the Elf warband to be largly archers.
(It makes them very dangerous in the game!)

I started with a bunch of old Jes Goodwin Elves ... with added fur trim:



and added a selection of later edition Gary Morley Wood Elves:



I have this guy as a ranger:



These incude a couple of plastic minis one from the very first plastic warhammer armies box set and another from the 5th edition monopose ones:






... and here they are all together: (I think even though they are from different scultors and different editions they all come together nicely with a the same treatment)

Excellent!  :-*

It's just like looking out of the window here in Finland, the true and original home of Santa Claus (he lives in Korvatunturi). :)

Very festive! (Though the impact has been slightly lessened here as we've taken our decorations down today...)

Genius!
