Re: CCCXI - Elven Assassins
I'm guessing Dark Elves? Nice ones, but (thinking out loud here) the claymores don't seem fit as an assassins weapon though... anyway the armor and helmet work well.

Thanks man! I agree that claymore's don't work well, but I don't really see them as claymores, just as a bigger sword for more heavy duty assassinations.

Re: CCCXI - Elven Assassins
Aeridian has a good point. I think the claymores may be a little too large for a simple assassination. However, I love the daggers in the offhands. I think assassin's wielding dual daggers always look good.
The helmet is a great touch.

Re: CCCXI - Elven Assassins
Nice! Very sinister figures. I, for one, like the sword+dagger combo; the claymores don't look that unwieldy, nor do they look like true longswords or bastard swords - more like a classic broadsword, albeit with a narrow blade. Very cool.

Re: CCCXI - Elven Assassins
I think they look great, but I wouldn't have called them "Elven", IMHO.
I don't think of Elves as being too fond of dragons (whether that's actually rooted in any known mythology or lore, I have no idea), and the claymores don't look very elvish or assassin-like to me. Maybe a title of "elite dragon warriors" or something like that would have suited them better.
Even with those quibbles though, they are super cool-looking figs. The all-black color scheme really is intimidating!

Re: CCCXI - Elven Assassins
Thanks AK, I kinda like the combos, but everyone has their own opinions. Hmm, maybe, but I kinda think of them as evil Elves, twisted elves (like orcs, except they look the same).AK_Brickster wrote:I think they look great, but I wouldn't have called them "Elven", IMHO.
