Adult content ;-)

The Eierkuchen Konditorei are a new unit to my Dogs of War army, being comprised of Faeries (Wood Elves to the insistent of keeping it in GW fluff) from the dark woods of the Empire serving as duellists.

The models are from Wargames Foundry's Elven range, picked up from a show vendor for £1 per figure, as slight seconds presumably; they needed a lot of work to clean up the flash and were a little pitted.  Foundry prides itself on quality generally and so these models would not normally make it to a blister pack.  I wanted a feminine, diaphanous appearance to the models and so went with a very light blue over a very pale flesh tone.

The results are very natural, and I think very nice, only the Heroine got slightly different handling, as you can see.

Very tidy.

  1. Very nice work. A lovely fantasy unit. I bet they non-warmongering stance will make more than one opponent player a little wary when facing them.

  7. Very nice -cute, indeed- if not tremendously warlike: their opponent will be so much the more surprised!
