EBay gets me some nice models and saves me time!

Wanting to take the step to larger battles I decided to browse EBay to see what I could find. I came across a fellow member from Asrai.org selling some of his Wood Elves, so all credit for the painting of these models should go to Greenleaf.

First, a modified Treeman, it is nice to have a bit of variation.

Second, a unit of 10 Glade Guards, I do hate painting them so 10 I don’t have to paint are very welcomed.

Last, nut not least, 6 Tree Kin. They are the new models that I don’t care much for, but I will have a unit of 6 old Treemen as my first Tree Kin unit so once again the variation will be a nice addition to my army.

Will try to use these models as a reference when I’m getting to painting the bases of all my models, They look awesome and I can only imagine what the army would look like if I did that good of a work on the rest of them.

Treeman & I level up!

Continuous work on getting my army painted before the tournament and today the focus is on a Treeman. 

I’m quite happy to announce that this will not be a boring “only basecoat” post. I actually tried out quite a few new techniques on this one, the biggest one probably being the use of a wash. Bought Devlan Mud wash the last day and decided to give it a try on my Treeman. I also highlighted lots of parts with Bleached Bone. These two techniques combined came out to this result. 

I really feel that I’ve leveled up my painting skill on this model. Learned a lot and will most definitely try to utilize my new skill and knowledge on future models. 

Also the time I used on the Treeman was only around 3 hours, might sound like a lot to some of you guys, but for me it’s a big step forward.
