Amazing work! Bravo!
It's better to be silent and thought to be a fool, than to open your mouth and remove the doubt!

I've painted a driad for LEAF, finished another two, so overall I have 25 - enough for my 2.5 K army.
Time to concentrate on wardancers and cavalry...

The unit:

LEAF Trisha, ill-mannered driad :)

I've finally finished my 2.5K army...with eternal guards, treekin, eagle, etc, I suppose I have around 3K now. I've made a diorama with small waterfall and stream coming through the forest, but right now I can't figure how to make a good pic of it...I'll search for the fotos my friends did during the tourney to give you an impression of the board.

EDITED: found some pics:

A small part of diorama...

...and the most interesting part of the board...poor guy is

actually jumping from diorama into empty nothing....

My 24 driads - proud to point that all of them are different
and all are converted to some extent.

Latest incarnation of Breakaneck Sanafabirch, famous Treeman Ancient. He lost some of his goodies during the
tourney (damn, I can't find that sceleton that was in his branches :angry: ), but got cluster of radiants and annoyance

of...well...everything :wink:

Thanks...
My original idea was to make one of the units of wd out of Rackham fiannas...but they proved extremely difficult to paint, so I left all of my GW models and with some night painting on the week before the tourney finished several other models.
The first pic - Fenryll elf and three Reaper models. The one with an axe just got some leaves added, the one to her right got another blade and I've sculpted some of her clothes and hair. The last one was a dancer - I mean a peaceful one - so she got twin blades and some clothes ;)
The last pic has two Rackham models - some kind of evil elfs, they had half of their hair shaved. If I remember right, they are some kind of twin special characters. The one with the blade, well, got this blade, and had her left hand reworked, too. I've restored her hair. Her sister also had her hair resculpted, and some clothes added. I remember someone called these models "ugly" in one of the topics in this Meadow - I guess now you can change your opinion and buy them for your army while Rackham still sells their metal models...

Simply amazing. The painting is astounding, and those Wild Rider conversions (especially the armored unicorn ones) are some of the best i've ever seen.

I have to note, though, that WE's has to be GW's best line, cuz I like their models more than the ones you get from the other lines. It all still looks amazing. :crazy:
