grots Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I now have my Elf company primed, and am ready to paint. What I want to do with them is an Ice theme. Has anyone done this with the Elves? What about Taltos? Does it ever snow there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixminis Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Never thought about it. I'm sure there's snow in Taltos!!! The Ice Queen from DHL would be a great proxy!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that. There's my stand-in for Lysette.... and fabulous basing on her ! http://www.reapermini.com/gallery/2800range/2821_1ds?full=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vil-hatarn Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 http://www.reapermini.com/forum/index.php?...topic=16743&hl= My elves are sort of arctic looking...more alpine than anything, but you might be interested nonetheless...I've altered the paint scheme a little since I took those pics, but it's not that different. The basing (which I'm guessing is what you're interested in) was just some rocks, and drybrushing with greys up to the blueish off-white (blanking on the name right now...)

I think you nailed it when you said alpine - the bases are really nice! I love the eyes on the third mini; even without a ton of detail, the work is very clean and it makes them standout. Thanks for sharing! Grant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint of Sinners Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 For the most part it doesn't snow in Taltos except in the mountains. But I say paint and base yer elves however you want. And just for the record... I've seen it snow in the desert. "Honey, what's that white stuff on the cactus?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooseyjoe Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 here smack in the middle of taltos (Central north carolina) we get 0-3 inches of snow every winter, and a hefty amount in the mountains. ok, maybe this isn't really taltos but if it can snow in north cackalackey it can snow anywhere. It was still 75 degrees about a week ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
