It Came from the Lightbox: Sylvaneth Spearhead

Breaking my catch-up of unposted painted model picks: I finished these guys yesterday and got them into the lightbox this morning.

Got a bug up my butt about the leaves looking kind of elm-y and that elms have a beautiful golden yellow in autumn… and with as frigid as it’s been the last few weeks it was tough to think about painting these green and spring-like. So: autumnal.

I’m quite happy with how they came out, though getting that golden yellow took many, many, many coats. I think the results are worth it, though.

Very displeased with the models themselves, however: all those branches and arrows are incredibly fragile. If you look closely you can see all bits that broke off while painting them.
