Adrian's High Elves Wild card month - A not so peaceful village

 

The villages surrounding Tor Nimtala where completely decimated after the wars against the orcs and the skaven.

Few towns and settlements have been left intact after the war of the beard and the constant raids of orcs and other creatures. But none of the later threats were so massive as a full scale war against two full host of orc and ratmen raiders. 

The settlements along the Tarano river were fortified as chokepoints to keep the enemy hordes undivided and far from the city of Tor Nimtala.

After the war, the elves were victorious but the fertile lands of the northern Tile were left in favour of the younger races like the men.

 

 

The original plan got completely smashed. To pieces, almost completely, hehe.
Fortunately I could finnish part of the scenery. 

I initially wanted to paint a unit of custom militiamen or warrior kin made out of old middle earth elves and Chaz Elliot RP elves, the chariot, as well as some terrain pieces (including of the bridges over the Tarano river from my backstory).

IRL I had to prepare some fieldwork as well as several issues and a late arrival of the printed shields for the militiamen that item by item from the list, everything failed.

The worst part was the chariot, that was planned from the starting of the challenge but will not be finished for this edition.

I finished working some of the cardboard pieces and small bonsais.

 

The small bonsaid are designed and printed by Last Sword Miniatures and the treetops made out of old blister sponges, so technically it's at least 50% oldhammer.

The cardboard houses follow my other modular designs but for this set I glued everything together and are solid pieces. The windows are cut so I can fit small LED torchs if I want to make some experimental pictures.

That's the end of my challenge. I failed the chariot and couldn't paint a bridge that I got years ago. Next month, the recap.

Until then,

Adrian's out.
