From QuinnM: Old World Elves (105 points)

 HI again 

This week I have more Elves, 20 of them this time, leaving we with around 45 of my spearman left to paint.  I am now on to panting the elves fresh for the 15-20 year old boxes, so I do have all the parts. I don't have much to say otherwise on them. 








I was also able to paint up one of my trench crusade models, a Sniper priest. This was a fun model to paint as I don't normally paint in a grim dark style so I had to mix black in to my lighter paints to get the look I wanted. 



So for points this week I have:

21x 28 mm footman@5 points = 105 points  

Sylvain: Ah, the charm of large armies! When you are done painting your Old World Elves, you should take a picture in parade, it will look impressive no doubt. Are you just using the standard GW paint scheme from the box art or are you designing your own? As for the Trench Crusade figure, a new incursion in the Grim Dark genre that seems to be getting lots of traction lately, you did a good job at conveying the depressing reality of this new dystopian universe. Well done!

  1. The contrast picture of the bright elven warrior and the grim sniper is great.

  7. Great work Quinn - love seeing the old High Elves.
    And "Sniper Priest"...that sounds very "Trench Crusade"...

  9. Those High Elves look great, but may be it is the "Cult of the New" which steals the attention to Sniper Preast.
