Ulthuan

That's starting to get hard-to-find too.

Such beautiful miniatures!

Thanks, I really do like the old stuff. I just finished the other 5 "elven personalities". If anyone happens to have an extra of the harp that's part of this range please let me know. It's the only accessory that isn't accounted for.

It might be awhile before I do more oldhammer elves. Right now I've got 23 Mordheim Amazons and some Warmaster Spears, silver helms, and a hero on Dragon. The plan is to do another unit of 20 4th edition Spear Elves and some warmaster PG and Dragon Princes after that, but who knows.

In general I’m not a huge fan of really old models (heresy, I know!), but the heavily armoured horses are pretty cool.

Will be good to see the Warmaster army expand. I think one of the disappointments of Warhammer is that the size of the armies makes it seem more like a skirmish than a proper battle, but Warmaster really gets that right.

There is no accounting for taste But I understand, I'm not a fan of most of the 8e stuff, and AoS stuff is just appalling to me. Yet I'm pretty sure others like it.



100% agreed. A 1000pt warmaster often looks more like an an army than 3000pts of warhammer, and both games are typically played at 2000pts. It's hard to imagine any of the Special Characters leading a warhammer sized amry. The sad (but also good) thing is they don't really exist in Warmaster.

Nicely done. Good HElfy glow about them.

I forgot to mention that one of these is the only bearded elf model from GW that I'm aware of. Just kind of odd.

The bearded elf is a little weird, maybe someone was just having fun with it

Now you mention it, the beard is a bit odd! Also his arms - looks like he’s trying to put his hands up, but his left arm is too lazy, so he has to use a ‘fing-longer’ type device.

Having a heck of a time getting anything done. Not sure what the deal is.

I put some paint on a mini today. Maybe the first time in a month. We'll see how far it goes.

In my painting experience Shannar, any progress, no matter how small, makes you more likely to keep it up.

I've been away awhile. It's nice to see all activity on Ulthuan though. I've been having an issue with carpel tunnel, so painting is difficult. I'm supposed to start the process to get that corrected next week. Unfortunatly I seem to have some Covid symptoms, so I'm hoping the test comes back fast enough that if it's negative I can still go to my appointment next week.

Best wishes of a negative diagnosis, and of a positive resolution of your carpal syndrome too.

Indeed. Stay safe and I hope your test is negative and the carpal tunnel treatment works.

All the best, let us know how it goes Shannar.

First the good news. I'm recovered from the Covid, and I don't have carpel tunnel. The bad news is that I get to go see some Drs about arthritis. Carpel tunner would have been much easier to treat, but figuring out the issue will at least be helpful

I hope you get it figured out soon. Arthritis would suck. But still better than not knowing what's going on I guess.

It's pretty bad right now. Painting for more than about 15 minutes leads to a lot of pain. I don't get enough done in 15 miniutes to justify starting.

My Dad had arthritis. Hope you get some relief Shannar.
