Started making wizards for my army. This floating dude is magnificent! Rich detailed and very robust, he's worthy of carrying the Ring of Magic to autocast spells. The big dryad is a fast filler between complex minis, but even there I managed to complicate things. It was a pain to fit those branches just like this. Nevertheless they are now not only a decoration, but also a shield from breaking the fragile model. And her hair. Yes, I painted her hair in a transition from green to bright orange and hid them by branches. It's something familiar to humans grey hair, when hair-tips become grey first, the same happens with the old dryad's hair.

You have some great models in this topic. The green, in particular looks so good.  That old school vibe is working very well and I look forward to seeing more.
Thank you very much! The project is almost done, 2 units of light cavalry are in the queue, and some heroes remain. I know, it's better to have more infantry to increase break-point, nevertheless cavalry for me is much cooler. Probably, the next year I'll return to waywatchers and eternal guard, or maybe not.

Going all the way with the old school vibe! Wood elven chariots have been made as the proxies for Wild hunt, because any army needs shock cavalry, but the Lost Kindred is too far away from Athel Loren. Chariots are always stunning as a result, they look like small dioramas each. The way to this result was too long.
Thanks to Forest Dragon and Cromarty Forge for minis and Kallistra LTD for bases.

Gorgeous pieces throughout these pages, sir! I really like the pocket sized pieces you made and the objective markers too. Great work!
Many thanks, I appreciate it. I hope, you've mentioned the minis, not the flat proxy set, because only it is pocket sized.
Sometime this warhost will be revealed in the full glory.

Voland's Venators, infamous mercenary knights. Alcoholics, bastards and excellent fighters that beat bretonnians at their own "royal" tournament in Couronne - what not to love? I'm very happy how they turned out, nicknamed them "knights peacocks".

I've understood the reason I don't like to paint 10mm cavalry: riders are already "attached" to steeds which makes it very hard to reach all the parts.

Nevertheless many thanks to @Minirat for such amazing sculpts, way better than the original "brilliant" gw models.

Regular treekin, nothing very special. Everyone is obsessed with "grim dark" painting style, so I thought if my treekin are terrifying animated dead trees, why not to at least try to make them "dark". No. Just no. Dark 10mm minis are just the messy dirty spot, especially during a game, when you and your opponent watch them from 1-2 feet. In a club with bad lights. 
Please! Make your minis recognisable from a distance! Real life differs from instagramish show-off! Water elementals turned out the most satisfying - they look bright and aggressive. Check the last photo, I've added frogs to them.

Almost useless but very attractive objectives. Love that WarCraft 3 vibe, the soundtrack plays in my head out of nowhere. While crafting them, I decided that my Lost Kindred would worship Lileath in the first place instead of Isha and Kurnous. Her symbols and ideas are much closer to the path of the Kindred, and to their new friends in the Forest of Gloom.
