RANK & FILE III
If I have my eye on something, I won't miss it (just one eye needed) |
Hi!!
Time goes fasts when you paint everynight (or, at least, when you try to do it).
Every Wood Elves army need archers and I hada lack of them before the start of the OWAC, just a single 10 elves archers was painted at that moment so one of the main purpouse of my planning was to add another three units of them. The first 10 were painted on first month and now I have finished 14 more of them, two 10 archers unit less both command group.
7 Lord´s bowmen (12) Light armour (2) Total: 98

196 on the month.
532 for the total.
I have continued adding color variations on the army scheme, in order to keep them as an irregular army tryning not to lose the army coherence. Hopefully all them will works fine, but not sure right now.
As archers have not too many metallics elements I play a little bit on the helmets nmm work; I had a really fun time playing with colors on the nmm. Well, better if I show you how was the month...
So this has been my month work, hope you like it. Anyway, any advice or critic on the army, but specially on the color variation, will be welcomed.
What's next? 3 months to finish and a 17 warrior kinbands and 4 command groups waitting for me. My original plan was to have 5 warrior kinbands already painted and paint the rest of the list in the following two months, leaving 1 month to paint whatever I want. But being realistic, not sure if I can paint all warrior kinbands on a single month so I'm going to use the rest of March to play with a couple of them and try to achieved something different to the rest of the army.
Keep painting!!!
Really like your shading and skin tones, these fellas are really nicely done. A welcome addition to the woodland forces.
ReplyDeleteNice regiment, once again!
ReplyDeleteWow! Beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteGreat work! They are all lovely but the eyepatches are my favorites!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work on the Elves!
ReplyDeleteThe colour combinations and basing are just fantastic and really ties the unit together!
Superb! The colours are great, and really well placed. I mean, they all look coherent and unique. Top job :)
ReplyDeleteWow... your skin/faces/details are amazing !! I cain't wait to see your wardancers !!
ReplyDeleteI painted a couple of units few years ago, got another one but this years is just for warriors and archers...
DeleteI think you've nailed it with the irregular army look - definitely the right mix of individualistic colours on the clothing, with the more standard issue equipment like leather armour and the bows tying them together as a unit. Beautifully painted as always - love the detail on the eyepatches!
ReplyDeleteGreat work! The colour pallet is great - those colours are really intense and fitting for Wood Elves.
