The High Elves are still a work in progress, but shall be useful all the same. http://i201.photobucket.com/album...

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa276/Sianelleofavelorn/Warhammer/SpearElves2.jpg In daylight the spear Elf's hair 'tis white blonde; the usage of artifical light is not kind to him methinks. His armour 'tis also the better for a dark wash and a little highlighting and now I shall make a beginni...

Ah, I do know the one thou do speak of. I do like that shortsword and hath made use of it before with LotR Elves.

The sword was but an experiment, I am also in two minds concerning this.

The base that is made from four large pink things is the most interesting and unusual methinks, but the Dragon Prince himself is most fine. I am most fond of a blue and red livery for the Asur as this was my first choice when I didst begin to collect High Elves.

The eye of the camera canst be most cruel to model figures 'tis true enough, save that thou shouldst have no fears concerning this my Lord Elspedo. The colours suit thy model figures well and with the tragic tale of the Faeven Warders as thy backstory thou doth stand on most firm ground indeed. Thou...

With but a little work the LotR archers do serve most well amongst the Asur. http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa276/Sianelleofavelorn/Warhammer/ArmyOfSandsArcher2.jpg http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa276/Sianelleofavelorn/Warhammer/ArmyOfSandsArcher.jpg http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa276...

Fantastic, I take it you are a brikwars player? 'Tis my hope to play by Warhammer rules with these my Lego armies; - however I hath been examining the Brikwars rules to see if they shall suit me well. My efforts in the main hath been directed towards the gathering and equiping of mine armies, but s...

My Lord Rod I hath taken thy wise advice and the spear Elf's armour is much improved. Now all that remains is for me to prod at my memory so that I may recall the method for painting hair. I shall now recall an earlier figure that I hath been a-painting, though methinks he is more of Avelorn than th...

Oh my, that is so simple and yet so beautiful a paint scheme. I do like well the highlight effects upon the weapons' blades.

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa276/Sianelleofavelorn/Warhammer/TestElfAOS.jpg I hath painted this spear Elf in the colours that I shall employ for the Army of the Sands. The camera is most cruel methinks, for I did not see how the red hath bled into the armour plates at his waist. This I shal...

If one doth not care overmuch if Lego and Mega Bloks do become mixed then the realms of Fantasy shall be thine indeed. http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa276/Sianelleofavelorn/Warhammer/ElvesEnemies.jpg The Elf Hero rides upon a Mega Bloks Grifffin and I hath found two horse and a crown amongst my...

Soon I shall take delivery of Lego horses to provide steeds for my small army which shall be a delight indeed.

Amongst the Lego community there are most clever folk who hath devised alternative decals for the Elves. These are the decals that hath been created to make of them High Elves. Mine are for Avelorn (what else?) and so the green doth serve them well. http://i574.photobucket.com/albums/ss186/EdwardThe...

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa276/Sianelleofavelorn/Warhammer/ElfArmour.jpg I shall be obtaining further sets of Elf weapons and armour of this kind from a most enlightened trader who doth supply the needs of such Toy Wargamers as myself. The armour that doth have the larger pauldrons and he...

The Elf upon the left doth hold the form of bow which I do hope to employ in my army. The brown bow is the bow which the Series 3 Elves doth have as their original equipment.

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa276/Sianelleofavelorn/Warhammer/LegoElves.jpg Dear kindred, this is the beginning that I hath made with my new Elf army. 'Tis not a swift gathering of Elves for the Lego Series 3 figures are packaged 'blind' and it doth take some little investigation to discover...

'Tis wonderful indeed! Thy ship doth look well, but it is thy Seaguard that didst catch my eye the most.

An army of which thou might be most proud my Lord. Thy Seaguard do look fair indeed and are the most beautifully painted. As for my own IOB Seaguard I do find myself too faint hearted to begin upon them as yet.

A fact that 'tis not well known is that in ancient times galleys would fight without their masts and sails, these being stowed ashore. In close combat and tight manovers a mast and sail could render the galley unstable and it was for this reason that they would be removed. Therefore the images which...

I did obtain the galley from a wargamer who doth have many model troops from the period of the Punic Wars and for this reason the galley hath been built with a corvus (raven). 'Tis my intent to complete the galley without this device so that I might employ it as an Elven vessel. A corvus couldst wei...

Hum....... or perhaps thou might think of the ships as being moveable landscape that may be shot at :wink: The Popular Science magazine for September and October of the year 1931 doth contain plans and an article that does describe the building of a Roman Galley. These magazines may be found on-line...

Now that I hath seen the most fair galley that doth belong to prelude_to_war it hath brought to mind the Roman galley which I hath recently purchased. (These are the pictures from the auction) http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa276/Sianelleofavelorn/Warhammer/RomanShip.jpg http://i201.photobucket....

I do agree, the colours thou hath chosen for thy Dragon Prince make him seem to blaze as if aflame.

'Tis said that a Paladin is a warrior who doth have a righteous cause so if any do qualify to be named 'Paladin' the Dragon Princes are most worthy methinks.

How didst thou construct the ship?- for it is a fine model that is beyond compare. First thou hast—bah—I can't type like that! After seeing ElvenAirCorp's photo I kept my eye on a good deal. Here's a link for your reference: http://www.scalehobbyist.com/catagories/Ship_Models/ZVE00008514/product.ph...

Hum...... I do own spear Elves that are also equipt with bows and do carry bow cases and quivers of arrows; - save that I do not think of them as Lotherns, but as core troops that are equipt with spears and bows. The shields they carry are not marked with the Sea dragon heraldry and I would not perm...

Thy chariot 'tis beautiful, there is nought else that might be said for it is most perfect and without compare.

And thy steed that doth have the green edging to the armour and the bronzework, 'tis a beauty indeed.

Ah, wonderful archers; - and by subtle degrees thy painting skill hath improved for this is plain to see.

I am belated with this comment, but thy BSB is most fine indeed and 'tis a work of art.

Oh that is the most amazing model making, - I hath not seen such a fine diorama as this before today. How didst thou construct the ship?- for it is a fine model that is beyond compare.
