Thanks!
The bases are from http://www.microartstudio.com, only I had to wait for a extremely long time to get them. I also glued some seeds on the bases I bought at my local craftsshop. And drybrush the static grass with graveyard earth paint.

@ Ryikko:Tanks, next time I'll send you a autograph ;)
The body is the eldar bonesinger, the head and lift arm is from the female spellsinger, I took the staff from the other female spellsinger (so its no Tzeentsch symbol, I didn't even noticed it my self!), and i usesd a plasic bow and cut of a cuiver from a plastic cloak!
I hope to paint something soon but every time I start working I and up sculpting stuff... I just like sculpting more than painting I gues!

@ Coen: Thanks man!

@ Dark Mark:It's so strange, I bought a new super duper Samgsung uber pc screen and the collours on my screen are so bright! So I think I have to do someting about the settings of my screen or someting.

The wardancers are build using a plastic ungor body and arms and I cut of the hands and replaced those with elven hands with swords and spears also I cut away the fur on the backs of the ungor body and added a elevn head. You can als easely cut of the legs and reposition them so they look like their jumping/running.

Here are some pics I made when I was builing them, who knows maby it is of some help?

The wolf fur is from the plastic spacewolf frame. I cut of the wolf head and glued it on a elven head and made som fur with greenstuff, I also used the paws from the same frame and added green stuff!

you pulled of a primal look very well...great work

i love the magnetized tray! rare earth magnets?

my only problem is that it's too colourful for me (and sadly, yes there is such a thing as being too colourful :tear: ) the red is very bright and contrasts sharply with the blue a little too much, drawing away from the rest of the model....

its only my opinion, and you don't need to change anything
