Something big is on it's way...

So once again no pictures yet, possibly later today depending on how much gets done.

As in the title, soemthing big is coming! It will be included in the army, as the army, but not in the points section. It's the most imprtant part fo the wood elf fluff and I must include for the army to be considered "Warriors of Athel Loren". Can you tell what it is yet?

If not then you'll see later. I will include everything together that is painted so far as soon as it is done.

So, the tally:

Painted:
-2 Waywatchers
-8 Glade Guard
-1/2 Big Suprise
-5 Dryads
-1 Wardancer

On the way:
-6 Dryads (base colour'd and base'd)
-2 Glade Guard (tabard highlights and bases to do)
-1/2 Big suprise (base colour'd, at this point I'm waiting for the paintbrush to dry. This is the faster half)
-2 Waywatchers (base colour'd)
-1 Glade Rider (base and details to do)

I also have a Lord/Noble on order, who will serve as my 1,250pt general. I will post a test batrep to celebrate half of the army painted fully when, fully painted. I am also waiting for some firends to get back to me on play-testing the army. I live where fantasy gamers are rare unfortunately, but to combat the noobism we will play 2 small games and switch armies. I will post results and a tactica separately.

I might also begin the fluff work on the general, but I usually let myself make painting mistakes and use them to my advantage when coming up with a charactor. Confused? I painted my vampiress' dress badly, with bestial brown where there shouldnt have been. I turned it into a Fleur de Lis pattern over the whole garment and said she was from Bretonnia. I'm hoping for some battle scar accidents with the new lord.

Becuase it's been so long without pictures here's the first full unit I ever painted last year, afte a 3 year break from the hobby, before which my painting was stupidly bad and slow:
