The Lost Kindred WIP. At last started painting my favourite loved fantasy faction. Simple oldschool strong colours: green and orange.

The first unit of default archers. 12 hours painting from 'primed' to 'ready for basing'. Just fair layering, no washes, no contrasts, no trendy slapchop.

WIP Scarloc's scouts. Almost ready except one small owl on the log, waiting for delivery. Skirmishing formation makes them alive, like they move through real wild forest. Logs and stump are from Cast'n'Play.

Default dryads unit. Required by rules, not good in game, nor fit army theme, but very easy to paint. About 2 hours of lazy dry brushing.

Some background for chosen army theme (in fact that's all). Started their journey a long ago, so their colours (and units) are old fashioned. And blue eyes...

I know you wait for something very special. Here it comes! Treeman ancient and Noble on... giant owl. Even more stuff is just behind the corner.

Glade riders, the first squadron of light cavalry. Beloved, adorable cornets, fast and gallant. That was a nightmare to paint them, 3 features in one time made the process horrible. Bad paints (white, orange), bad poses (closed hand positions, riders on horses as one item), huge amount of details (just like they are at least 20mm, not 10mm).

Thanks a lot, I appreciate this.
The goal achieved. After assembling full-green 28mm army these bright colours feel very refreshing.

Second light cavalry unit, half brigade is done. Expectations were true: the greatest problem was the citadel white paint. The result is little darker, nevertheless I feel more satisfied with them.

They look really good WarGamer. There is heaps of detail on them for sure which is something I struggle with these days on WM scale even with my best glasses on haha. Thanks for posting.

Just another quick painted terrain/objectives. Something should be done during tough time, so better 1 hour finished stumps than nothing at all. Now it's time to be revealed as continuation of assembling the troops.

Many thanks for everyone replied! I appreciate it very much!
