Showcase - High Elves Frost Pheonix

Todays showcase is yet another of the many, many, many high elves that will populate this blog (after all that is the army I am currently building very slowly).

Due to the size of this model and my somewhat limited photographic skills these do not follow my normal 'showcase' photo format but features a somewhat more 'in game' feel.

WIP - High Elves Spearmen

Well silly season is upon us and everyone is gearing up to party or working overtime (that would be me :( ) as such hobby time is quite slim on the ground at the moment however I have managed to find a bit of time to make a start on some spearmen for the high elves army that I am building at the moment. So it is time for yet another Work In Progress picture

At this stage they have only been undercoated white and very roughly painted with a base steel colour (Citadel Base Paint - Leadbelcher) as much of these miniatures is scale mail or helm this seemed the most sane base to work from.

Bad Paint Monkey!

Yep I know I have been slacking..... no new posts for a while .... Bad me!!!
Well real life has infected me with a job and as such hobby time is greatly reduced, however today I have a WIP photo of those Sisters Of Avelorn I unboxed the other week , see this post for the reveiw.

Totally legless

Unboxing the sisters of Avelorn

Ok here are my first impressions of this kit from Games Workshop for their high elf army. Firstly this kit produces two different troop choices (this seems to be their latest production gem, I would guess to save on tooling swaps in the machine shops) . With all the others kits they have made in this duel unit format this one produces the most divergent options I have ever seen.Now what does this mean to you and me? In one short sentence lots of bits for conversions etc.
