Some painting updates...

Even though I might no longer be able to go to the Oldhammer event in August, I'm still painting what I can... Hopefully GoblinLee and I can still get together for an old school reunion...

Firstly my newly painted wardancers. I still haven't got round to adding their blue war paint...


All my wardancers together...


Some More Fey allies for my Wood elves. I'd imagine the Treemen, Dryads, Zoats and these Satyrs all forming a significant ally contingent.


GW wood Elf Mage. I think that elves should have a certain spell casting ability within their army... I seemed to remember in 3rd edition low level spells not being that effective and high level magic completely dominating the battlefield. Hopefully we can find some happy midpoint.


3 stage Elven Wizards... I like the idea of 3 stage figures. These guys have loads of details. More than modern GW figures. Maybe not as well executed but still characterful. They are a little smaller than my GW wood elves but I like them a lot. I think I need to buy me some more! Anyway they'll be used as more Wood Elf spell casting capability...


And finally for my D&D an adventurers footman. He carries so much stuff it took ages to paint him up. Figure by Reaper I think...

I wonder what I could use these for...

Step 1. Drop the better half off to run a half marathon or something like that. Ensure that the enemy does not catch wind of plans for a wargames table...

Step 2. Find 2 internal doors that have been sat in the garage for ages, waiting for something to happen to them.



Step 3. Start filling holes where locks and hinges have been removed.

Step 4. Wait for 2 hours whilst filler is setting. One could conceivably do some painting during this time...

Some base colours on my wardancers.

Do the same to some Satyrs. In my small mind I think they kind of go with wood elves...

Step 5. Realise you need a haircut and your running out of flock so decide to head into town and mooch around for a bit. Wargames table will take an awfully long time at this rate!

Wood Elf Wardancers

In response to GoblinLee post on getting ready for Oldhammer day by painting all his Slann, I've decided to focus on getting the rest of my Wood Elves painted up. Firstly one of the iconic units of the Wood Elf Army has arrived on my painting table...


Hopefully these won't take too long...
