Yes, but sword masters are amazing as MSU. Throw 6 or 7 sword masters at a unit, and it will hurt. :nod:

True but that is only because of their higher number of attacks. Making them more killy against most everything. White lions still pack a hefty punch, plus I think the models are cooler.

In case anyone is still interested, I'm working on my main prince (Elithmar) now.

He looks a bit like a fairy though :lol: so I tried this too:

I don't know if there's any fluff behind the wings, but I agree with the fairy part - for me the wings just don't match the rest of the mini. The second version looks great, though.
And yes, please keep posting, I'm definitely interested.

I'd echo what Rowena said. The second version looks much more impressive!

The second version has a very impressive helmet, a little too impresive. Maybe he's compensating for something ;)

I am still interested in this army, hopefully I will get to see it grow into a full 2500 point force.

Right, the second one it is.

I'll post pictures of the archers when they're done. I have five more to finish this month.

Now then.

Here are 16 finished archers. Well, apart from the standard bearer's arm. So close enough to finished for me, a very slow painter! :P As I have a unit tray for 16, I'm calling this a finished unit. ;) They're even based! :D

Nice. :) I like the colours and the wood grain effects.

Thanks. :) The wood grain looks good, but it takes an AGE to paint. :cry:

Thanks, guys.

Currently I'm working on some white lions and my BSB, as well as a mounted prince and an eagle. I have a few conversions I'm working on too.
