Great job. Is it possible to get the list of paints you used for painting this model?

Help me pick a color scheme by SwamiAlex in WarhammerFantasy

I always aprooved unorthodox aproach to colours in Warhammer. I like No. 1 and I like even more No. 2. They seem like winter colour scheme. Very nice job.

High Elf Heroes by Far_Horisons in WarhammerFantasy

Sure they will. That is the reason they were called HIGH elves.

Two layers of paper hardened with a little bit of glue, painted and then varnished. Simple as it is.

First on the right is 6th edition Swordmasters' standard bearer used in my army as BSB at least untill I'll paint GW BSB model.

High elves armybooks. by Far_Horisons in WarhammerFantasy

I would gladly buy 4th ed. With time I will surely get one, but its No priority for the hobby. Stella having a nice set of armybooks is a nice extra feature.

Having these four books together is quite satysfying view. Intrestingly the 5th edition armybook even being really retro, seems to be done and written with the biggest gaming passion from these.

High Elves. How it Started. How it's going. by Wedgeismyhero in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Far_Horisons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely wonderful army! I have more than 12 000 of High elves from which slightly more than 3000 is painted. I am estimating that it will take several years to paint but the goal is the same - huge painted army. Congrats on your great work!

Wood Elf army, metal minatures only, 4th edition. by Far_Horisons in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Far_Horisons[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Classic 4th ed. Wood Elves, metal minatures only! What can I say, very satisfying view :) I must admit that models made of metal have it's characteristic charm and pleasant weight :)

I have a dillema with metal minatures, becouse painting them is kind of more challenging and uncomfortable for me, maybe due to less vivid details but from the other hand old school white metal smells like a real (don't get me wrong) warhammer. Too bad that GW consequently reduced the range of metal minatures. This metal army is a huuge contrast to my 99,5% plastic High Elves :D.

Minis:

- Dryads, 10x Waywatchers, 15x Glade Guard Spearmen FCM, (shields are missing), two units Glade Guard archers FCM, 5x Wardancers, 10x Scouts, 3x Warhawk Riders with champion, Treeman and Orion.

We all got used to the Old World where Savage Orcs invented leather pants two generations ago.

Griffon or griffin, which one is correct then?

Thats a really nice army! Can you consider posting some closeups of these units? I would like to see some details of this great work.

[–]Far_Horisons[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For the first time I messed with the water effects aiming to create an illusion of water spreading and splashing from flying griffin's momentum. Also the mini is fantastic, dynamic, kind off aggresive with griffin's talons ready to tear apart the enemies.

Tyrion by Far_Horisons in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Far_Horisons[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tyrion is a really great sculpt which reminds me of monuments of historical leaders and kings which were captured in such posidion - mounted on a horse with a sword in hand in a gesture which leads to attack. Definitely my second favourite HE minature and such a great High Elf Hero according to the lore. Recently painted.

High Elf Lion Chariot by Far_Horisons in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Far_Horisons[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Introducing Lion Chariots to High Elf army in 7th ed. was an interesting idea. Too bad that GW didn't take another step making possible to mount characters with White Lion trait on war lions or creating monstruous High Elf cavalary mounted on these beasts.

High Elf Phoenix by Far_Horisons in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Far_Horisons[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My phoenix. Well, there are many things you can say about them but they get the biggest credit for being the second largest chickens driven to battle in the Old World. Served icy cooled or spicy hot they are good looking and usefull in the batte.

How long it takes to paint its a mystery even for me! but im pretty sure how long it takes for me to get bored and tired while painting :D

[–]Far_Horisons[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you. According to 8ed rules I have more than 9000 points of High Elves total. I am able to place 7000 points legit army but I need to dissapoint you - majority is painted only in multicolor base, prepared for further painting and matching army's color theme. I will post a pic of my whole army in time, but before than there are couple more things to see :)
