Byron's Hippy Wood Elves - Rank and File Month (308 points)

Hello Lamppost, 

Whatcha knowin'? Come to watch my flowers growin'? Well too bad. I dropped the ball this month and forgot to sculpt flowers onto my elves before I started painting them. My offering for this month is 7 Archers, a Musician, a Champion, and a mage on a unicorn. 

Below, are the 7 archers, musician, and Aeldryth Joywatcher, the level 5 champion. 

Next, Neanvala Meadowhame, level 5 mage on unicorn. I really like this old Grenadier unicorn (not as neat as the Marauder unicorn), but it has a much less noble/majestic vibe and more of a this-is-a-giant-moose-that-will-trample-over-you vibe.

So, it's a blue unicorn. A Blunicorn as Richard called it. It's an old grenadier unicorn that came with a thick layer of dark brown paint on it. The paint had to come off, but it really opened my mind to the possibility of a non-white unicorn. This seemed to align with the Elves being hippies. Initially, I tried painting the unicorn ochre. But that didn't contrast with the mage's garb. Whelp it had to be another color. So I settled on blue.

Maybe the horn should have been painted red to indicate "danger" like everything else in the red period.

Next month, wild card. I will be painting up a converted treeman, baggage train villager types, painting up the HeroQuest heroes which I didn't finish up in the last OWAC, and my tribute for the secret santa.
