Tale of Four Gamers - Challenge 1: High Elves

The deadline snuck up awfully quick on my fellow TLoDH bros, who had to scramble to get paint on their models and finish what they could.  Chris was able to complete his High Elf Noble, and it looks fantastic.  The banner is what really puts this model over the top.  There is a ton of detail modeled into it and I was really impressed with the way Chris was able to paint it.  His highlights on the banner are great- very clean and fine brush strokes.  I think my number one problem when painting is doing fine highlights, and Chris put on a clinic with this banner.

Unfortunately for Chris, he wasn't able to get his High Elf Prince completely painted, although he worked furiously this past weekend to get as much done as possible.  As you can see, he got most of the figure painted, minus the base, and was able to get shading and some beginning layers going on a lot of it as well.  It's very much a model that you wouldn't think twice about seeing on the table, but definitely not yet painted to the standard that he set with his Noble.  This model also shows off Chris's armor washing technique well.

I'm sure this is a model which will look great when finished, although he better hurry because he has a unit of Lothern Sea Guard to paint this month and he is already short on time thanks to a 2-week jaunt to Singapore at the end of the month.  Get painting, Chris!


I'll have a final shot of Chris's models in my wrap-up post as well.
