Mariano Sánchez - Make the forest "even more greatest"

My third OWAC is over!!!


"Final pic" was done BEFORE I painted the scenery (very clever, Mariano, very clever...)


Now I can say I´m 3 OWACS old. COOOOOOOL!

I have had so much fun painting this year, probably because no horses were painted on it. Second OWAC was, sometimes, a nightmare but in this one... all pleasure. Only one month was really complicated but the rest of them have worked very well.

As I did last year, lets do a review

On 1st of January I had:


and now I have:

Here you have a short video of my OWAC (with my precious english accent from "la Bahía de Cádiz")



This Owac I haven´t counted painted points  but here you have a visual summary:

Now it is time to check the current status of my Wood elves army (pic and video):




I hope you like it. Next year will be my last Wood elves for sure. Quite happy with the idea!

Congratulations to all OWAC participants, the ones who finished, well done, and the ones who finished in the pile of bones (Buuuuuu).

As I said, always a pleasure and a privilege to be part of the OWAC. Long life the OWAC!!!!

  4. Wonderful! And the 3rd time for wood elves! This year I especially love the dragon and rider and the eagle unit. Well done!

  5. One of the best OWAC run, without a doubt. That dragon is just awesome, and I love the terrain, very evocative. That army is becoming something else.

  9. I can't believe you are actually planning a fourth year of painting elves! Nice looking army by the way, although it lacks beards, and decent weapons (such as hammers and cannons)

  10. This is absolutely outstanding work Mariano, inspiring me to keep going with my elven project and turn to my own Wood Elves next year, even though I cannot hope to match your skills! These are exquisite, thank you for bringing them to the OWAC! :D
