Welcome to the Way of the Butterfly!

'Ah so desne, Mason san'... - 'the Way of the Butterfly' - I like that - the Wargamer's martial art eh?

Impressive. Loving the jumbos.
Now back to Westeros, quick!

What a labour of love in this thread - beautiful work.

And I'm also a member of the WotB.

Captain Blood,
I think I can mention without a spoiler alert that war elephants do feature in the ASOIAF books, albeit on the periphery of the main storylines... creating yet another opportunity for modelling pachyderms methinks?!

So they do... Looking forward to seeing those woolly fellows

Spoilery stuff:

Ah, well now, remember there are mammoths north of the wall, and non-woolly elephants to the east.

Tempted to pre-emptively start a Connington force because of that, although the troops would be arranged and decked out however the Golden Company are, rather than regular westerosi cod-medieval...

But I digress.

Magnificent work, and the snake emblems are quite beautiful.

Really excellent work. I went back and looked at your in-progress shots and the amount of work you put into them really shows in the final result.

Got here late. Those are wonderful. I spent many hours pouring over those Ian Miller illustrations in the Tolkien Bestiary. His aesthetic is not the easiest to bring to life in miniature but you've really done so. A really impressive achievement.

Thanks Spooktalker, those illustrations were pretty influential
Captain Blood - Since I already have a mammoth, I have designs on New Ghiscari and Golden Company elephants, but will be giving them a more european/classical look. I kinda like the idea of Gothic 'horse' armour on a nellie though!

Seems like an age since I completed these. Now 11 Mumakil wait in the wings, with another 4 Heffalumps awaiting conversion into beasts of burden to pull my siege machines...
