Rob Ellis Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Hi! After many, many stalled projects, I've started a Sylvaneth army...with a difference. I've always loved the Wood Elf aesthetic and the new Sylvaneth Range launched back in the summer really reinvigorated my passion for this theme! Back when the compendium scrolls were launched along with the initial AoS rule set I always had an idea for the type of force I wanted to field (heavy combat element with fire support) and although I spent time working on a few conversions it was only when the new range launched that I dusted off the project and added some of the new kits. You may have seen some of my WIP on Twitter (@robellis21) including my Sylvaneth themed Celestant Prime, Loremaster and Waywatchers. Anyone who knows me will know that I really struggle to start let alone finish any of my projects but I'm really passionate about this one and everyone's kind words have only spurred me on! With this in mind I thought I'd start a thread here on the amazing TGA community in the hopes that it would provide even more motivation. Without further ado, here's what's going on...

MumblingsOfWar Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Absolutely fantastic! That prime, wow! If Sylvaneth had those models, I'd be sold. This is exactly the sort of style I was hoping the Wanderers would turn out to be 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warboss Gorbolg Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 The glade lord on dragon looks incredible. Probably the best dragon based model that I can remember. Love the use of the trees. They add so much in terms of theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you use for Orion's head? Because I want an Orion inspired by the older wood elves, the waywatchers and Wardancers I would use the Magnus head with cut down hair and cover it with a greenstuff hood and cowl.

Arnied3 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 This was you!!! I have had this pic saved on my phone for years with the idea of converting a unit myself. How did they turn out in the end? On 11/25/2016 at 11:24 PM, Rob Ellis said: My Sylvaneth Waywatcher test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
