Wood Elf general for The Old World

 The latest to roll off the painting table, this Wood Elf hero will act as my general in smaller battles to come to get a hang of the army... and the game.

A model from the Lantari Elves command set from Rune Wars that I grabbed for cheap early in the year, this Fantasy Flight Games produced model comes in a semi-soft plastic.

 

 

This gave me of course the opportunity to try out the colourscheme I want to adapt to the force, which will be, suprise suprise, a combination of dark green and browns.  For the small bits of armour, I've opted for a dark grey scheme. 

This gives a pretty "blend in with nature" look, to reflect the actual rather sinister style of the Wood Elves, who are like that strange neighbour you can't count on wether they'll help you, leave you solve your own troubles, or come attack you in times of dire need.

Add some small leafing to the base, and he is ready to take command of the budding forces of Athel Loren!

Now to start the next models for the army...
