Gaah! I didn't even notice that! D@rth, the texturing on those is magnificent...!

I really like that assortment of earth elementals - lovely stuff! The big one in the middle is Reaper, is that right? Where are the others from? I like the smoother texture of the three at the back - as if they're made of a different kind of stone to the ones at the front with the slightly rougher stone texture. Plus, the green is a nice contrast colour. Nice horses and lovely basing on the patrol entry - those "pill" bases look really good for cavalry.

Thanks - awful photo through, just couldn'y get a shot which displayed them ok, and the best I could come up with was this one which is a bit blurred and messy. Need to practice more with the camera.

Great elementals, wish I could paint as well as that! Contrasting and highlights are terrific.

Hawkeye, the 3 front earth elementals are Reaper.  The back 3 are from Heroscape, I believe.  They came in a pack with these 3 earth elementals and 3 sasquatches.

Thanks, D@arth J@aymz - I'll check them out.

As for photography, BlackCrane, I find it almost impossible to photograph miniatures - I can tell you that you certainly did a better job than I ever could! The only issue I can see is the angle - a lower angle might allow viewers to get a better look at the riders, but then you wouldn't get to see the guys at the back. Not certain what the best approach is, but I like these guys nonetheless.
