Sylvanneth

Painted a few Sylvanneth on and off over the last couple of years as I slowly build that age of sigmar army out of my old woodelves (oh how I miss woodelves,… you suck GW)

The Arch-revenant was a Chinese resin knock-off, brittle and with many imperfections. Fixed most of them and really happy with the colour scheme. I don’t feel to bad about buying it, at the time you couldn’t buy the model and the box that it came in was sold out. I posed it differently, a better pose I think. I also think the colour scheme is nicer than the box art and I tried to do the nice effect on the blade so that it was similar to the Branchwych.

Finally got around to purchasing the old Drycha / Branchwraith model. I never liked it but the Branchwraith is a better character than the Branchwych. I think I did a good job, as much as one can with such an ugly model. The new Drycha is way nicer. Something for the future perhaps.

Branchwych is painted following the box art. It’s a pretty nice model and I really like how the scythe blade came up (the transitions are a little harsh in the photo). Also like the colour scheme on the grub.

A plain treeman in autumnal colours. I was inspired by somebody elses paint job, I think on and Ancient and tried to do it here. I’m not convinced by it and have some minor regrets, however I find the box art version even worse so <shrug>. A little OSL (object source lighting) on the spites, not my best work, not that I’d ever tried it before, but it kinda gives a vague impression. One of the spites on his… antlers? is broken, I should probably fix that.

Lastly another sixteen dryads to go with my other sixteen. Not much to say there. They’re fiddly to build and paint and they’re a little bland but actually I quite like them. I even painted one of the owls this time.
