Very Busy

I've decided to take on 2 new projects. I'm doing 2 "dioramas" of sorts with the exception that that are just single models. This is my first attempt at modelling full scale terrain and I'm trying to chronologically document all the steps in the process. Again pictures speak better than words, my entire gallery profile is available at ,http://profile.imageshack.us/user/lennyk/, just click on the Warhammer tags for all related warhammer pictures.

What are the two projects you ask?

Well I really like the new wood elf models, and seeing that I play Orcs & Goblins, its not everyday that I get to paint one, or in this case, two of these models. I love how they are elves but still have a very dark and mysterious looks about them. They have a pretty cool background to them and hence are great models to work with.

The first is a wood elf Waywatcher lord. As shown below, as you can see I've prepared the joints for pinning just to make extra sure they don't fall off.



This is such an awesome model, I love how he is cloaked and launching off the "forest floor". The pose is so dynamic and you can almost imagine him leaping and shooting at enemies, fending off those who dare intrude on Athel Loren. Below is the model all put together.



I've also made a base for him to go on, shown below,



...and here's a pic of the base in its early stages, in the wee hours of the morning, when it was first "concieved",



The second is a spellsinger mounted on an eagle, it comprises of an eagle rider (the rider which I didn't use) and the male variant of the spellsinger (he's the dude on the extreme left) I originally wanted the female flying one, but there isn't one to be found on the sunny island of Singapore. I guess you can't have everything



Heres a picture of the assembled model,



This is a picture of the base the mounted rider will be displayed on,
