I wouldn't have thought that these are conversions.
And you make me think about my Thanatos Saxons... they don't fit well with my other dark age minis, so I thought I'm going to sell them, but now...

Suitably otherworldly but still "realistic" looking. Great job!

The conversions look good. Would ebob Normans also work? They look to be of more realistic proportions, which is to say they are thinner than most 28mm figures and might be suitable for elves. The pity is that they don't look very dynamic.

Thanks everyone for your very kind comments. I started on the remainder of minis I had to hand while I wait for the rest to arrive.

Ethelred: The Normans look good and would probably work if the size was right. Their proportions are nice.

The other figures I tried this with were Artizan Carolingians and I wasn't happy with the proportions of the head to the body.

I'd like to see what other ranges of Fantasy/Medieval figure ranges there are out there with more realistic proportions.

Thanks again

The Elves of Albion make war on Imric Troll-Lord

Detail of the Light Troops,

and the Heavies.

As you can see, I've finished a good number of the converted Tanatus miniatures. This is about half of my intended force complete. I've got another two dozen foot to convert and paint before the infantry is complete. But before I do that I'll be starting up on converting some Warlord Sarmatians into Elven cavalry.

Ah, nicely done.
Looking forward to see Sarmatians becoming elves.

These all look great!

Those are delightful.

How are you classifying them?

Skrapwelder · « **Reply #26 on:** October 14, 2016, 04:17:33 AM »

Thanks everyone.

I have eight models total. Six will most likely form a unit of Elite Riders, maybe with the Mystical Armor option. The remaining two will be the army command, Elite Riders as well, which I may add a spell caster element to.

Steam Flunky · « **Reply #27 on:** October 14, 2016, 06:13:40 PM »

Really like what you have done with these elves!

Ogrob · « **Reply #28 on:** October 14, 2016, 06:37:41 PM »

Great stuff! I really wish there were more options out there for elves.

The infantry conversions are great. brilliant idea and as other people already said; this is how LotR elves should look.
