My wife bought be this figure for I think my tenth wedding anniversary. We just celerbrated our fifteenth wedding anniversary the other day. So was probably time I painted it. Went with the Games Workshop colour scheme. Don’t normally paint blues but liked the idea. Didn’t highlight up quite as much as the ‘evy metal team (or whatever the GW inhouse painters call themselves these days. Pretty happy with it and useful to have another foot mage in the army. First use of grass tufts (army painter brand) and really like them.
Mounted Wood Elf Spellsinger
Painted pretty early on (when spellsingers were called mages) this was for a long time my best painted model. Using the GW colour scheme for the model but with a limited palette, like no bleached bone type colour, made for a lot of experimenting. Still it came out ok even though the skin is a bit dark for an elf. I really like the model, even quite like my paint job. For ages it was my only mage in the wood elf army which was kinda problematic as I really didn’t like fielding mounted mages, I still don’t so now days he’s consigned to the cupboard.
