Mariano Sánchez - Wood elves - Introduction

In the depths of the forest, where no man ever ever stepped in, was the Spring of Lawën. Only the oldest elves knew the legend that accompanied the place...

“When the great forest does not wake again with the rays of dawn, when spring does not bloom anymore at the King’s Glade, when the end comes to Athel Loren… The halls of the spring will be reopened and the elven people of ancient times will dance to melodies of hunting"

Hi, my name is Mariano and from the first day I started to play Warhammer one of my dreams has been to have a fully painted Wood Elves army, and the dream goes on...

Current situation of my Wood elves army

Some of you may know me but or the ones don't my name is Mariano. I´m from the south of Spain, married with a beautiful wife and dad of two little monsters that usually make more difficult to find quality painting time. I have been painting and colleting Warhammer miniatures for more of the half of the time I have lived. Some years ago I decided to paint all Wood elves I have and the OWAC give me the possibility to be closer to this pourpose. 

How can OWAC helps me to achieve my pourpose? Easy, OWAC gives you the need to be organized, to do a good planification but also it gives you some super motivation seeing the work of the others participant and giving you the strengh to push a little bit harder when the end of the month arrives. In summary, I'm in love with the OWAC (and with my beautiful wife 😁).

So what I want to paint for my second OWAC... CAVALRY. 

Mike McVey cavalry is so great!

If you see the current situation of my army it is easy to discover the total lack of cavalry. So lets do a full cavalry OWAC!

Yes, I'm goint to (try to) paint all them...

This year I'm going to use the 4th ediction Wood elves army as guide for my army list. So time to present the units and heroes to be painted (lets see if my plan resist the contact with the real life...):
