High Elf leaked pictures

[Kirsten]

not keen on Alarielle, not sure about the eagle chariot, otherwise looking good though. With the shadow warrior kit I can finally field a unit of archers, hurrah. the archer models are so very very ugly, giant child balloon faces on them all.

1. I love the chariot. That's the kind of silly high fantasy thing that makes me look at WFB over Warmachine (from over my army of traitorous and incompetent rat minions).
2. I love the guy on the phoenix's face. Like he just wants to kill some dudes because his ride's burning his bum.
3. I want Random Chap to be his official name, and it's an old High Elf name that fell out of use because the historical Random Chap was a Pretty Big Deal. His whole life people have been looking at him like he's told a tasteless joke whenever he's introduced.

Such a 'meh' model as Alarielle really doesn't deserve a guard that looks that good.

I've been using the old 5th edition Jes Goodwin archer sculpts. The proportions look good next to the current spearmen, and most of Jes' sculpts from 94-95 on stand up to the test of time. Probably cost a fortune to find them on eBay now, though.

So....do the old spearmen models in the background indicate that they won't be getting new sculpts? I've seen before in codices/ army books where they use older figs before they get the updates. Anything indicated so far?

yeah I had loads of the old plastic archers and spearmen, the single piece ones, both of which look better than the current plastic archers and spearmen which are either about to float away (archers) or tiny and plain (spearmen).

I don't mind the current spearmen. I should have clarified that I meant the metal archers, not the plastic ones.

yeah I guessed as much
