In this entry for the AHPC, I'm going back to the end of the second age... and the very beginning of the game system.
Back
in 2001, these models of elf troops and numenoreans where included in
the base set, and as Noshi has decided that she wants to play the Elves,
they just had to be painted up during the challenge.
To
lead these brave men and elves into battle, the great heroes of the
time are included as well. Gil-Galad and Elrond led the Elves of the
Great Alliance of the age against the Dark Lord Sauron.
But as we know, the strength of man would fail...
So for this entry, I've finished 10 models of 28mm infantry, which should yield me a nice 50 points.

Alas, Gil-Galad fell that day, and ended up on the cutting room floor, except for about two seconds of footage in the prologue...
Well Tom, as long as the strength of your brushes remains undiminished, the lands of the Free Peoples may yet endure!
That's a well-earned 50 points, sir!

Welcome to the Painting Challenge. Here you will find the fabulous, fevered work of miniature painters from around the world. While participants come from every ethnicity, gender, age and nationality, they have three things in common: they love miniatures, they enjoy a supportive community, and they want to set themselves against the Challenge. This site features the current year's event along with the archives of past Painting Challenges. Enjoy your visit and remember to come back soon.

Nice work, those elves will make short work of any orcs, uruks or goblins that get in their way.
ReplyDeleteNice works on these pointy ears.
ReplyDeleteNice work Tom :)
ReplyDeleteAhh, it's great to see some LotR High Elves. If I remember correctly, Gil-Galad and Elrond were like orc blenders in the rules. Wonderful stuff.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff. cheers
ReplyDeleteGreat looking high elves!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Very nice!
ReplyDeleteGreat work. I always found it so tricky to get the right colour on cloaks for the elves...
