Wood Elves Sisters of Thorn

As for today I give you a quick update on the the Sisters of Thorn, the new unit of the Wood Elves Release. I really like the models except one thing: the awkwardly looking antlers of the mounts that look like helmet (check it out).  Because of that I decided to convert the antlers to a more realistic way and oriented myself to the following picture.




Here´s the outcome of the conversion.


 

Thoughts for the painting scheme:
First I have been torn between a mono white and a mono brown colour scheme. Then I found both kind of boring and also the white scheme not fitting because the mounted Characters who will join the unit also have white mounts. That´s why I took again inspiration on nature and tend to the following color scheme.

It´s far from boring and will bring some new pattern to my army which I love! Also it  is going to be more complex to paint, I´m looking forward to it.

    Immer wieder toll zu sehen wie du ohne Scheu derartige Umbauten in Angriff nimmst um das Gesamtbild zu verbessern. So gefallen mir die Hirsche auch gleich noch besser. Bin schon auf weitere Beiträge hier im Blog gespannt. :)

The Sylvaneth of the Cherry Blossom Grove

The Sylvaneth of the Cherry Blossom Grove – A Growing Force The Sylvaneth of the Cherry Blossom Grove are marching to war! Recently, I completed three towering tree spirits —a Treeman Ancient, an ordinary Treeman, and the Spirit of Durthu —bringing my army close to completion. This army has deep roots, dating back to the Old Days of Warhammer , when it was primarily made up of Wood Elves . (Check out my [2014 blog post] for the original army!) Over the years, I have expanded and refined the Cherry Blossom Grove, adding numerous new miniatures while staying true to its original theme. And the journey is far from over! In the coming months and years, I plan to continue expanding the Cherry Blossom Grove , with some exciting additions on the horizon. Alarielle, the Everqueen , will take her rightful place at the heart of the force, and more Kurnoth Hunters will reinforce the ranks. I’m also considering a Living City detachment from the Cities of Sigmar Battletome , blending Sylvane...

Starting a Tyranid army: Colorscheme

Diving into Warhammer 40K – My First Army Choice I've been a miniature hobbyist for over 10 years , exploring a variety of tabletop games like Warhammer Fantasy, Infinity, Frostgrave, Malifaux, and Kings of War . But my hunger for new experiences in the hobby never fades. Recently, my gaming group convinced me to dive into the deep and awesome lore of Warhammer 40K . After devouring a dozen books—especially the Horus Heresy series —I was completely drawn into the rich, grimdark universe. That’s when I decided it was time to start my first Warhammer 40K army . Choosing Between Slaanesh and Tyranids When picking my first 40K army, I was torn between Emperor’s Children / Slaanesh forces and Tyranids . Both factions have an amazing design and deep, intriguing lore. In the end, I chose Tyranids —not only because they are relatively easy to paint , but also because I wanted to immerse myself deeper into the universe before tackling the intricate conversions required for a Slaanesh forc...
