I needed a change of pace from the Tomb Kings, so I thought I'd try something a little different by starting a force of 10mm Wood Elves.
These are all 3d prints from Forest Dragon. They're really lovely models and an absolute pleasure to work with.
First up, we have a elven General astride a Forest Dragon. At first I had it simply mounted on a base, but it seemed like it needed something a little more dramatic. So I carved out a piece of blue insulation and modelled it to represent a portion of an escarpment, or perhaps a hilltop.
I had a bit of fun playing with Colourshift paints from Greenstuff World, especially with its wings.
Here is a regiment of wood elf cavalry.
Another unit of cavalry, but these chaps are mounted on elks (I really enjoyed working on these models).
Here's a moot of Tree Ents striding purposefully into the fray.
A massed unit of Forest Dryads on a double-depth base, with a few Tree Ents shepherding them along. Think Helm's Deep, or the Birnam Wood at Dunsinane.
I know it's sort of hard to discern which is what in the photos. It makes a bit more sense in person as you can clearly see the Ents keeping everything moving in one direction.
Thanks for dropping in to take a look.

How lovely!
ReplyDeleteUnless you live near a forest I guess.
Cheers! Yes, these are the quintessential militant treehuggers. :)
DeleteThese look fab. There was talk at the local store of playing some Warmaster. But I wouldn't know where to start to look for minis for it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Simon! If you have access to a resin printer (or someone who has one) there are many options out there for 10mm fantasy figures. Check out 'Forst Dragon' and 'Excellent Miniatures' for some ideas).
DeleteAwesome work Curt, love the Dragons!
ReplyDeleteCheers Ray!
