Quick Post Before Christmas
Just finished these Sidhe (elves) from Brigade Miniatures (Fomally Celtos). I think they have come out well. I am much happier with the skin tone which is a Citadel mid-grey (can't remember which one) with a Nuln oil wash. Earlier Fae elves were done with the same technique but the effect wasn't as smooth. The only difference was these elves were done with a new bottle of Nuln oil. So I am thinking that the older bottle either had started to separate or just wasn't as good?
This completes the Winter Guard for the dread Fae Queen Morgana. I am trying to finish off the few remaining core units of my Fae army.
It just goes to show... I've seen pictures of these sculpts numerous times and always thought they looked a bit naff. But you've really brought out the otherworldly character of them, especially with that skintone. Looks like I judged these models completely wrong!
ReplyDeleteI have to agree, I wasn't particularly impressed with them until after I had painted them and was just using them as a unit filler. But I am now thinking of getting some more.
