And second, because I am still not comfortable in my green stuff skills to make the horns look natural.įirst step was to prime the models black.

First, these are still fantasy models and need a little whimsy to go with the elves riding them. I decided to keep the basic antlers rather than clipping them for a more realistic model as I had seen others do for two reasons. I grabbed some pictures of white-tailed deer (deer native to my area) and thought that variations on this color scheme would look more natural. My plan for these models is to have them look more realistic than the GW painted mounts. Anyways, rather than spend an article on tactics, let's take a look at how they are looking after a few hours of paint. This unit is going to be a mage and battle standard bunker run with the MR(1) banner giving the unit a pretty hardy 3++ against magic missiles and a 4++ against standard shooting. My plan is to have a unit of ten completely finished (though I will probably only run 8 or 9 in a 2500 pt. Right now I am working on the first group of five Sisters of the Thorn for my ever expanding Wood Elves army. It's been a few months, but I have finally gotten some paint on some models.
