Duskrunners - wood elves with a difference

Hi all

I've been working on a new wood elf team as I was thwarted in my attempts to take a human team to AusBowl. The team is based on Maidenhead Miniatures' 'feral elves' range, so they are not quite what you might expect.

Unfortunately all the pics I have are a bit large to post here, so you'll have to check it out at my painting blog:

Let me know what you think.

I love the warhorse

they are a bit..... unusual

Hope you are playing with lots of "black stars"

Nice job!

Very nice. I am sure they will get some attention from your opponent.

I mean, it would be a shame to block them, right...?

It sure would!

You know, I was checking out the Stripping Miniatures thread earlier and... I don't think I'm doing it right!

Why, because these are already stripped ? Showing off their "bare metal" ??

I just want to know what brush size you use to get those stars so precise

Heh, neat alternative wood elfs

But hey - none of them have pubic hair?
In danish 'Dusk' = 'Bush', so it would just have been so poetic.
Cheers

Interesting team... and there are nice miniatures in this range!

>hm... remove the spear, resculpt the hand a bit and add a football into the raised hand... nice! <

> add some shoulderpad...<

I guess, nice to convert into BBminis... hm, i´m thinking to order some?

Yep, there is some nice stuff. I found they didn't have enough range in the 'pure' elven style minis, so I went with the cloven hoofed models. As noted in my blog entry, some of the sculpting is a little bit suspect, but on the whole they are decent miniatures and, given the options for wood elf teams on the market, definitely a good option.

They look like they would make good amazons too.

Great team, beautiful miniatures

I've updated my blog with the latest additions to the team, a thrower, a catcher and a line-elf. That's seven down, only five more to go, and I have these already undercoated!

The few pics up are great, but you seem to have been scorned by photobucket. You have about 5 pictures that have been removed.
